O'Brien said in a news release that the school's administrators had "expended great energy and countless hours to save the school from this fate."

Alumni also began a fund-raising effort to overcome the school's financial deficit, although a Baltimore County Circuit Court judge declined on July 24 to grant an injunction that would have kept the school open.
