Congregation's local school
A parish school is a school operated by a religious parish, typically Catholic, serving the local congregation's children.
Parish schools provide both secular education and religious instruction, funded partly through church contributions and tuition.
They remain common in areas with large Catholic populations: She attended the parish school through eighth grade.
