Providence Heights Alpha School

Providence Heights Alpha School is an independent, Catholic, non-Diocese, coeducational school for grades Pre-K-8, founded and sponsored by the Sisters of Divine Providence, and located on their historic 40-acre campus located in Allison Park.

Although Providence Heights Alpha School is a Non-diocesan school, it does experience certain benefits by maintaining a relationship. The school engages in Diocesan competitive sports and has permission to prepare its students for first holy communion which culminates in a private service in the chapel. Several priests from the surrounding parishes share mass with the children on a weekly basis.

Since 1926, Alpha School has educated children to be independent thinkers, imaginative problem solvers, and caring, compassionate individuals.
