Catholic Central High School
Catholic Central High School, a coeducational, college preparatory school, was founded in September 1923 by Bishop Edmund F. Gibbons, at the request of the pastors from parishes in Troy, Watervliet and Green Island. The school drew students from Sacred Heart(Troy), St. Jude the Apostle(Wynantskill NY), St. Mary's(Hoosick Falls NY), St. Mary's(Waterford NY), Holy Spirit(East Greenbush), St. Ambrose(Latham), and St. Pius X(Loudonville)

It was originally located on Eighth Street in Troy before moving to its location at 116th Street and Seventh Avenue in North Troy. The original Catholic Central High School building on Eight St. has now become part of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. The first principal was Father Burns. The student body numbered 525 students. The first class graduated in June, 1924 and numbered thirty-two. When the doors reopened in September, 1924, there were 1,046 students registered in the high school. In 1953, Catholic Central purchased the Cluett Peabody & Company building, which had been used for experimental purposes in the field of textile research as a miniature textile mill. In February, 1953, Catholic Central High School was relocated to its present-day campus in North Troy. In 1957, where once lay a vacant lot, soon became the Monsignor Burns Gymnasium. The basketball team no longer had to play its "home" games "away". From 1960 to 1965, Harry Joseph Flynn taught English at Catholic Central. Flynn later became Archbishop of Saint Paul and Minneapolis. Catholic High once held more than 1,000 students, but enrollment declined as Catholic churches and elementary schools closed in the city. In 1989, the school added seventh and eighth grades and in 2021, the school added sixth grade. The school closed in June 2022 and the property was put up for sale in March 2022.

Saint Ambrose School
Saint Ambrose School was a  private Roman Catholic elementary school in Latham, New York, located within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany. During the 2021-2022 school year, Saint Ambrose School had about 200 students. The school was merged with Catholic Central High School in Troy, and became the Catholic Central School starting in the 2022-2023 school year. History
Saint Ambrose parish was founded in 1924. One year the parish school opened, staffed by the Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It moved to its current location in 1956. Merger
In 2021, Catholic Central announced they would sell and close their Troy campus and relocate to the 19-acre St. Ambrose campus in Latham, creating a new regional K-12 campus through a merger with St. Ambrose. Albany Catholic Schools Superintendent Giovanni Virgiglio said that considerations that effected the decision to move to St. Ambrose were the convenience of the location to the areas from which the school draws its students, and the fact that Lansingburgh was a split campus with students having to cross the street to get to the cafeteria and gymnasium.
