Construction
In the early 2000s, Catasauqua built a new high school in Northampton and remodeled the former high school, changing it into the Catasauqua Middle School. The old middle school, Lincoln Middle School, was purchased by Allentown developer Abraham Atiyeh at a cost of $900,000.
The former Lincoln Middle School is now the Lehigh Valley Christian High School. This school operates independently, and is not part of the Catasauqua Area School District.
