The location for a regional Catholic high school in Western Massachusetts will be announced Friday.
Springfield Bishop Mitchell Rozanski will make the much anticipated announcement just before noon Friday.
The choice is down to Surrey Road in Springfield — the longtime home of Cathedral High School before it was wrecked by a tornado four years ago — or wooded land next to a Catholic cemetery in Chicopee.
Rozanski said Thursday his decision is the outcome of a well-thought-out process.
" I look forward to solid Catholic secondary education here in the Diocese of Springfield because of this announcement," he said Thursday.
The new school is the result of planned merger of Cathedral and Holyoke Catholic High School.
