The Mary of Nazareth Catholic School community exemplifies the highest academic and catechetical standards of excellence. Our students participate in a challenging academic program that uses cross- curricular lessons to enhance their faith formation. We encourage our students and families to live according to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which is centered on our Eucharistic celebrations and expressed, through Catholic Social Teaching in our school, in our parishes, and in our communities.
We encourage students and parents to visit our school. To schedule a visit, please contact our principal, Beau Quattrone at 412-672-2360 or [email protected] Additionally, if students are interested in a "Shadow Day," arrangements can be made to accommodate this request.

Pennsylvania Junior Academy of Science
Presentations for the Pennsylvania Junior Academy of Science took place on Saturday, February 4th at Baldwin High School. 8th and 7th grade students from school districts around the Pittsburgh area made presentations on science experiments that they conducted on their own. Mary of Nazareth had one 8th grade student represent our school, Xiomara Lawhead presented for the first time. We are very proud of Xiomara for competing and presenting. She took home a 2nd place finish and was given the University of Pittsburgh Excellence in Biology Award for her presentation of "How Do Invasive Species Spread So Quickly."
Again, Congratulation Xiomara for a job well done.
I would like to congratulate a few of our Mary of Nazareth school students for participating in the 6th Annual Entrepreneurial Summit held at the Commonwealth Charter Academy on Friday, November 11, 2022. They developed, on their own, a product to sell. They did a great job and represented our school with style and grace. Congratulations to Aleda Fecho, Bianca Gajdos, Natalie Morgart, and Karmen Wright.
On Tuesday, October 18, our school family paid tribute to our teacher and friend, Mrs. Robin Makovics, who went home to God on September 15, 2021. Last year, Mia Dzurenda, a 2022 MNCS alum, organized a pie sale to raise money for the purchase of a memorial bench to honor Mrs. Makovics. The blessing and dedication of the bench was carried out by Fr. Kevin Dominik. Our former principal, Lynda McFarland, spoke and paid tribute as well. Mrs. Makovics taught 4th grade math, which was very important to her. We are proud to announce that the "Robin Makovics Excellence in Math Scholarship" has been established. It will be given to the fourth grade student who had the highest grade point average in math for the school year. Our principal, Mr. Beau Quattrone, presented Christina Zapata with the first scholarship for her accomplishments during the 2021-2022 school year. The ceremony ended as our music teacher, Mr. Ballard, led us all in song. Mrs. Makovic's husband, daughters and family were in attendance, as well as former colleagues and friends.
