This July 18, 2012, photo shows students wandering down the halls of Our Lady of Lourdes during summer school in Los Angeles. After 97 years, Our Lady of Lourdes School was closing, enrollment had dwindled to just 35 children last year at what was once one of the West Coast's biggest Catholic schools.

In this photo taken July 18, 2012, Citlaly Quintero, 6, second from right, looks away from her teacher Gaby Gonzalez minutes before class is dismissed, during summer school at Our Lady of Lourdes in Los Angeles. Our Lady of Lourdes' enrollment dropped to the point of near closure, and though enrollment is improving, has needed to adopt new strategies for smaller, mixed level class sizes.
