The Hill District is entering a period of major change within the public school system. Through the Pittsburgh Public Schools Facilities Plan, several neighborhood school buildings are proposed for closure or reconfiguration. The plan is intended to realign resources, modernize facilities, and adjust grade structures across the district.
These decisions have a direct effect on the Hill District, a neighborhood with a long history of Black educational leadership and community-driven advocacy. Residents and families have raised important questions about what these changes mean for the future of learning in this community.
The Hill CDC works with education stakeholders on issues related to schools in the Hill District. This includes ongoing conversations with families, local leaders, and partners who are focused on student well-being and neighborhood stability. The goal is to make sure community interests are clearly represented as decisions are made about school facilities.
Here you will find a copy of the proposed Future-Ready Facilities Plan, information about Hill District Schools, and upcoming opportunities to engage.
