The Ask: Fr. David Schalk will be sharing Christ the King campus updates at upcoming, intimate receptions. Let us if you can attend the most immediate Project Overview & Reception event:
Construction at All Saints Academy on the Christ the King campus began on May 18, 2021 to update and modernize aging mechanicals and other campus systems to ensure safety and continued operations. Piping has exceeded its life span and has caused many emergencies, with increasing urgency since 2018. Electrical upgrades are needed for additional outlets in classrooms for air conditioning and to accommodate student technology needs that didn’t exist when the facility was originally constructed.

As a Catholic school competing for students, these upgrades are no longer a luxury and are, instead, a necessity to ensure the safety of all and to continue to attract families to All Saints Academy.

Capital improvements are campus-wide:

  • Replace the boiler system and boiler piping;

  • Update ventilation system;

  • Add air conditioning; and,

  • Upgrade 400 Amp to industry-standard 1200 Amp service

From the Leadership
Father David Schalk, Pastor
“All Saint’s Academy is effectively reaching students on the east side of Columbus, especially Hispanic and African American children, and meeting their educational needs. The current building in which they are learning does not correspond to their dignity or to the importance of our ministry at Christ the King and All Saints Academy. This upgrade is long overdue and vital to the Church’s ongoing commitment to young people in our community. We want our children to know that they are worthy of proper heating, cooling, and ventilation. They need to see with their own eyes that their school is a dignified, sacred place.”
