"Suburban Catholic schools grow in Western Pennsylvania"

"Enrollment at the region's Catholic schools continues to dwindle, but there is growth in a handful of suburban areas, according to statistics from the Diocese of Pittsburgh.
The number of students in the Catholic education system in the Pittsburgh region has fallen 17 percent in the past five years.
About 19,000 children from preschool to 12th grade are enrolled in local Catholic schools. In 2010-11, the total was 23,000.
The enrollment figures were released in advance of Catholic Schools Week, which began Sunday. The week celebrates Catholic education through open houses and other activities.
Even though enrollment fell in each of the past five years, the decline has begun to level off, said Michael Latusek, the diocesan superintendent of Catholic schools."
