Private Tours - Scheduled with the Admissions Director
The best way to experience Serra Catholic is to see it for yourself! Meet with our Admission Director, tour the school, visit classrooms, and experience the vibrant learning environment that makes Serra Catholic unique.
We encourage families to visit during the school day whenever possible so you can see our students and teachers in action. We know busy schedules can make that challenging, so if a school-day visit isn't convenient, we'll be happy to find another time that works for you.
To schedule your visit, please contact Mrs. Lorraine Lyons, Admission Director, at [email protected] or 412-751-2020 ext. 134.
