This is a list of current and former schools in the Pittsburgh Public Schools district. It includes all of the following:

  • Schools inherited from the old Pittsburgh and Allegheny City districts when the current school district was organized in 1911
  • Schools inherited from other boroughs and townships which were annexed to the city of Pittsburgh between 1911 and 1930
  • Schools built by Pittsburgh Public Schools since 1911

Schools highlighted in green are open as of 2024.

Pittsburgh sub-district schools

[edit]

Prior to the establishment of the Pittsburgh Board of Public Education in 1911, each ward of the city (apart from the former Allegheny City which had its own school district) had one or more named sub-districts with the authority to levy taxes and build schools within its territory. The schools below were built under the sub-district system and taken over by the Board of Public Education in 1911.[1][2]

Some sub-districts gave unique names to each school, while others used numbered schools (e.g. Colfax No. 1). The school board renamed all of the numbered schools in 1912.
