Northside Catholic Academy History & Records
NCA’s tradition of providing a quality Catholic education to neighborhood children began over 100 years ago with the original six individual parish schools: St. Gertrude, St. Gregory the Great, St. Henry, St. Ignatius, St. Ita, and St. Jerome. In 1994, those six schools consolidated into what is known today as Northside Catholic Academy. Today, our regional school serves the parishes of St. Gertrude, St. Gregory, St. Henry, St. Ignatius, St. Jerome, and St. Margaret Mary, which joined NCA in 2016.
If you attended St. Gertrude Catholic School (prior to the formation of NCA in 1994) and require sacramental records for your First Communion or Confirmation, please fill out a Request for Sacramental Certificate on the Sacramental Records page of our website and send it to stgertrude1420@stgertrudechicago.org.
For transcripts for St. Gertrude and NCA, please call the school office at 773.743.6277.
