Pittsburgh Mifflin PreK-8 is a neighborhood school located in the Lincoln Place community of Pittsburgh. Children from Pittsburgh's 31st Ward (Lincoln Place, Gates Manor, Hays, New Homestead and Hazelwood neighborhoods) make up the student body. Mifflin teachers utilize the district-adopted curriculums in all academic areas. Our strong academic focus is complimented with related arts classes in music, art, physical education and computer-based programming to support reading, writing and math initiatives. Mifflin is the proud recipient of a school performance profile of 71.2% score. This score is meeting the standard that the State expects for schools in Pennsylvania. In addition to our strong academic focus, Mifflin staff is committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment where all children feel secure and motivated to achieve. Our goal is for a Mifflin student to leave us prepared for a 2 or 4-year college or workforce certification.
