Our District

Penn Hills is the second-largest community in Allegheny County. The community is serviced by the Penn Hills School District, which has three buildings currently housing over 3,000 students. Elementary students in K through grade 5 are housed in a central elementary building.  A middle school serves grades 6 through 8 and the senior high school grades 9 through 12.

The cultural, socioeconomic, racial, religious, and educational differences that exist in Penn Hills make it a unique, diverse community. The District recognizes these factors and the impact they have on the school system. We address these issues through differentiated educational interventions and schoolwide behavior programs that outline consistent behavioral expectations and offer positive recognition for students. Through these programs, we work to provide students with the words and skills to grow as both learners and citizens and provide them with a common, consistent message.

Our Mission

The mission of the Penn Hills School District is to foster an equitable learning environment where all students have access to opportunities and resources that construct a pathway for every student to achieve their full potential.

Our Vision

At the heart of the Penn Hills School District lies a vision that inspires the creation of a vibrant educational space fueled by diversity and inclusion, where each student is acknowledged and celebrated for their distinctive contributions.  Through collaborative efforts, we aspire to build a community steeped in mutual respect and understanding, crafting an environment that nurtures learning and social/emotional development.  Our dedication to student success and pursuing lifelong learning knows no bounds.  We are steadfast in our commitment to equipping individuals with the essential skills, knowledge, and global perspectives to triumph in a constantly evolving world.  Together, we illuminate the path to a future where every student can thrive and make a meaningful impact.
