Pittsburgh Public Schools

Pittsburgh Public Schools Student-Focused, Well-Managed, and Innovative We serve approximately 19,000 students in Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 in 54 schools.

Pittsburgh Public Schools is the largest of 43 school districts in Allegheny County and the second largest in Pennsylvania. In addition, Early Childhood programs serve children from birth to 5-years-old in classrooms across the city. We believe that every child—at every level of academic performance—can achieve excellence. Only by focusing on what we can best control – improving performance at ev

ery level of the organization – can we honor our obligation to prepare every student to take maximum advantage of The Pittsburgh Promise ® , while also preparing our public school system to be better able to thrive in an era of unprecedented competition.
