History

In 1973 Catholic education in the City of Two Rivers was in a year of transition. In preparation for the consolidation of Saint Luke School and St. Mark School, four faculty members spent a semester in one building and them switched to the other. Two Rivers Catholic Central School (TRCCS) was formed in 1974 as a consolidation of the two schools. The Catholic parishes: Holy Redeemer, Sacred Heart, St. Luke and St. Mark provided financial support for this collaborative effort in order to continue the opportunity for Catholic education.

Two campuses were developed with the St. Luke building housing grades five through eight and the St. Mark building housing grades one through four. Since the St. Luke building was in the downtown area, this was thought to be the wisest use of resources.
