The Carmelites leave the Sagrado Corazón de Dénia school after 125 years

February 16 from 2022 - 09: 38

The Dénia school popularly known as Carmelitas will no longer belong to these, the Carmelite Sisters, passing into the hands of the Scientia School company, which has experience in the concerted education sector. The reason? The lack of vocation, which prevents a younger generation of religious from getting a replacement.

For a quarter of a century there has been no nun teaching at the center. The lack of legacy, as well as investment, has forced the Carmelites to leave the institution they took care of for nearly 125 years.

Last week the purchase was formalized by Scientia School, a company that will be in charge of managing the Sagrado Corazón school starting next year. Among the changes that are expected, an investment will be made to improve the center, expansion of the classrooms and they will bet on the creation of specialized rooms (such as laboratories) to provide shelter for training cycles.
