This is the former co-ed K-8 private school built in 1954, which opened in 1955, was dedicated on May 13, 1956, and closed in 2009. It was built and maintained by five local Byzantine Catholic parishes. The school had two buildings (a K-5 building and a 6-8 building). The campus also housed a convent on the property, which was the building on the property when it was purchased in 1952.

The campus grounds were the former Oles estate and the purchase price was $75,000. The school was originally called Our Lady of Perpetual Help but was later changed to Byzantine Catholic Central.

Father John Rommack, who passed away June of 1969, openly expressed his eagerness to establish a parochial school at St. Nicholas. In 1952 the Oles estate on Youngstown-Poland Road was purchased for $75,000 by the combined efforts and resources of all five Youngstown area parishes (St. Mary's, St. Nicholas, St. Michaels, St. George's, and Infant Jesus of Prague). The Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate accepted an invitation to Youngstown, and by May 1953 the Byzantine Catholic Central School was well underway. The school continued to serve the needs of Byzantine Catholic youth and families in the greater Youngstown area until its closing in 2009. St. Nicholas parish has, since its inception, transformed from a nationality parish to a cosmopolitan parish, attended regularly by a great number of Eastern Catholic Christians from various ethnic backgrounds.
