Saint Peter Claver Catholic Church and School are an important
part of the history of the Rondo Neighborhood in St. Paul,
Minnesota. Rondo has always been a predominantly black neighborhood
where people know each other. When Interstate 94 was built in the
mid-1950s, the neighborhood was torn apart. To attract and retain
young families, the parish built a school in 1950. It was run by
the OblateSisters of Providence from Baltimore. The black
nuns were known for their evangelization efforts in the
neighborhood, and many came to love them. Lack of funding and low
enrollment closed the school in 1989; it reopened in 2001 and
became a founding partner of Ascension Catholic Academy in
2015.
