The Rumor About Moving Students Into the Mary Ethel Costello Property Is True

GLOUCESTER CITY, NJ (November 11, 2026) — For some time, a rumor about reopening the abandoned Mary Ethel Costello School has circulated throughout the community. The Gloucester City Board of Education deeded the building, assessed at more than $1 million, to the Gloucester City taxpayers several years ago. The school was vacated in 2017- 2018 when students from the elementary school were relocated to the new $90 million Gloucester City Middle School a few blocks away.
