About twenty-eight Catholic elementary schools teach approximately 10,360 students in Nassau County, according to the 2013 Official Catholic Directory. Most of these schools are parish-based. Five are regional, that is, nearby parishes support a school together or are listed as sending their students to that school. Each of the three "private" schools is unique. The De La Salle School, Freeport, teaches only boys and only grades 5-8. Holy Child Academy is an independent school with higher tuition. The St. Martin de Porres school in Uniondale is somehow linked with neighboring parishes but controlled by the Marianist Province of Meribah.

As reported to the Directory, these elementary schools have the largest enrollment in Nassau County: St. Agnes Cathedral, with 827 students; St. William the Abbot, 585; St. Aidan, 540; St. Anne, 540. The approximate median enrollments are: Maria Regina, 400; Holy Family, 365; St. Joseph, 356. One parish school and one regional school reported enrollments under 230 when the OCD figures were collected.
