Pittsburgh Public Schools Future Ready Facilities Plan 2027-2030
The Future Ready Facilities Plan for Pittsburgh Public Schools outlines significant changes for the North Region. The plan aims to create clear school pathways, strengthen neighborhood school communities, and expand student opportunities. Key initiatives include establishing defined elementary and middle school pathways, closing certain schools (Pittsburgh Allegheny 6-8, Pittsburgh King PreK-8, Pittsburgh Manchester PreK-8 by the end of the 2026-2027 school year), and relocating or transforming others (Pittsburgh Allegheny PreK-5 to the King facility, Pittsburgh Morrow as a dedicated elementary, and the Allegheny building becoming Pittsburgh Schiller 6-8). Future investments include a new early childhood center in Allegheny Annex and major renovations at Pittsburgh Northview to create a new K-5 elementary school and English language development center, scheduled to open for the 2029-2030 school year, at which point Pittsburgh Spring Hill PreK-5 will close. The overall objective is to foster stronger school communities, clearer educational pathways, and modern learning environments to support student success.
