In 2017, the Diocese of Pittsburgh, under the leadership of Bishop Zubik, embarked on a visionary mission to revolutionize Catholic education within the region. Recognizing the challenges faced by families seeking a Catholic elementary education, Bishop Zubik envisioned a solution where accessibility and affordability were paramount. Thus, the North Hills Regional Catholic Elementary Schools (NHRCES) were born and strategically positioned within the North Hills region of Pittsburgh.

The NHRCES exemplifies Bishop Zubik's vision of Catholic education as a cornerstone accessible to all families. The Diocese of Pittsburgh enhances educational opportunities by uniting under a regional system. It fosters a sense of collective responsibility and investment in nurturing the next generation within the Catholic faith. As families explore their academic options, the NHRCES stands as a beacon, offering the promise of a vibrant Catholic education within reach.
