  • St. Anne (1908-1976) St. Anne's School began in 1908 and by 1924 enrollment had grown so large that the parish purchased the School Department's Derby School on Jefferson Ave. In 1956, the cornerstone of a new school on Cleveland St. was laid. The school closed 20 years later, in June 1976.
  • Ste. Chretienne Academy(1915-1971)
  • St. James Grammar and High School
  • St. John the Baptist
  • St. Joseph Grammar and High School. Both schools were taught by the Sisters of Notre Dame. The grammar school closed in 1972, a few years after the high school had closed.
  • St. Mary Grammar and High School
  • St. Thomas

Though home to many Catholic Schools in the past, the last remaining Catholic school, St. Joseph's School, closed in 2009.
