Saint Elizabeth of Hungary Roman Catholic Church and School
412-882-8744; 412-881-2958
Saint Elizabeth of Hungary Roman Catholic School is run by Saint Elizabeth of Hungary Roman Catholic Parish, a Catholic community with a long and proud history of piety and service.
The parish rests at what has long been called "Sacred Acres" on Grove Place. It pays homage on its website to its great tradition by stating, "To read even a brief history of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary Parish is to know something of the mystery of God at work in the lives of those who have gone before us. Priest and people alike, they are the ones who put in place what we have today - buildings and the structure of faith."
Both the church and school offer an array of activities outside of mass and classes, all designed to provide Catholic guidance for its nearby residents. School grades range from pre-school to eighth. The parish also boasts a colorful, "old-timey" gymnasium with balcony seating and it even offers daycare services.

As a former student of St. Elizabeth's School I always remember the good things that happened there and the friends I made there. I have not had the fortune of knowing what has happened to them since I left the school on or about 1956, and sure would love to hear from anyone who remembers me from Sister Agnes' class. I remember Harry Myers, Margaret Cole, Margaret Mittlehouser ( although I am not sure how to spell her last name), and Ed Tech ( who I have had contact in the last ten years ), Nadine Wolfe, Ann Harper, Madonna Becker, Lynn Knorr, and John Bielski. If anyone knows their whereabouts please have them contact me, Lawrence Carmalt, at cyclops120@yahoo.com. It has been over fifty years since I have seen anyone from my class. Thank you very much
