Pittsburgh Classical 6-8 (PCA)

Pittsburgh Classical is a school-wide magnet program. We are located in Pittsburgh's West End neighborhood. We provide a strong academic core of communications and literary studies, science, social studies, and math. Our curriculum includes an in-depth look at the influence classical societies have had on our modern, western world and how we can continue to use those ideas to help shape our future world. In addition, we emphasize art education, physical education, Spanish language, and instrumental music. We enhance our curriculum by integrating technology through the use of our three computer labs, smart boards, ELMOs, and distance learning. As part of our classical focus, we provide students with several interdisciplinary experiences, some unique art opportunities and a special way to celebrate our learning at the end of each year.
