Nativity B. V. M. High School is a private, Roman Catholic high school in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. It is located in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Allentown. Nativity B.V.M. (Blessed Virgin Mary) High School is a Catholic four-year co-educational secondary school. It was founded in 1955 as the successor to Pottsville Catholic High School (formerly Saint Patrick's High School) and Saint Stephen's High School in Port Carbon. In 1927 Father Edward L. Gatens, pastor of Saint Patrick Church, Pottsville, planned the building of Pottsville Catholic High School. On October 15, Cardinal Dougherty of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia dedicated the new building at 112 7th Street (now Assumption BVM School) which still bears the engraving "P.C.H. School" above the door. From 1928 to 1955, Pottsville Catholic was a diocesan Catholic high school with the Sisters of Saint Joseph as faculty. Saint Patrick's Grade School, housed in the same building, was a parish school. At that time, Catholic schools in this area still belonged to the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. The constantly increasing enrollment made a new building imperative and Monsignor John Boyle, then pastor of St. Patrick's, Pottsville, was commissioned by Archbishop John O'Hara of Philadelphia to purchase ground for the new diocesan high school.
