Our Lady of Pompeii
The Apostles opened their mission at Our Lady of Pompeii School and parish in Greenwich Village in 1930, when the parish opened a grade school.
Initially the classrooms were full of the children of Italian immigrants and their descendants living in the neighborhood. In the 1980s, OLP had a significant number of students from New York City's Chinatown, when its population expanded and St. Joseph's School
(also staffed by the Apostles) could not hold them all. Though still educating children from "The Village," the school currently has a multicultural mix of students who live throughout Manhattan, the other boroughs of New York City, and New Jersey. In residence at Our Lady of Pompeii are (L-R)and Sr. Rita Marie Milano, faculty member, Sr.Maureen Flynn, principal, and Sr. Estelle Barelli, faculty member.
Sacred Heart Convent
The Sacred Heart community serves both the Sacred Heart Learning Center and Santa Maria School in the Bronx borough of New York City.
The Sacred Heart Learning Center opened in the Fall of 2008. It is a Pre-K 3 program directed by Sr. Bridget Smith, who also teaches the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program at the Center.
Founded in 1951, Santa Maria School, a Roman Catholic parish elementary school whose mission to educate the students is inspired by the Gospel of Jesus and grounded in the teaching of the Church, has served the local community of the 
Bronx for over half a century. The school has remained consistent over these years in providing a safe and reverent Catholic atmosphere as well as a strong academic program for families seeking greater achievement and a better future for their children.
Although when it began Santa Maria School educated mainly students whose parents were Italian immigrants, it now educates students of different social, economic, and religious backgrounds from Pre-Kindergarten through eighth grade, admitting children from within and beyond the neighborhood. It is our goal that each of our students will become a positive contributor to the community and to the larger society, exemplifying the values learned at Santa Maria School.

St. Joseph
-
The first New York mission of the Apostles of the Sacred Heart of Jesus was St. Joseph School, located in lower Manhattan. The Apostles began their work there in 1926 when the neighborhood was comprised primarily of Italian immigrants. Over the years, the population has shifted and St. Joseph currently serves a largely Chinese community. Please see the Fall 2006 edition of the Caritas newsletter for a Spotlight article on the Apostle ministry at St. Joseph School.
