About Our School
Welcome to Pittsburgh West Liberty PreK-5. Our school is a neighborhood school located in Pittsburgh's Brookline neighborhood. Our vision is to provide an environment where each child is able to develop academically, emotionally, and socially to their fullest potential. "Where Learners Excel and Character Counts" is West Liberty's motto. Pittsburgh West Liberty PreK-5 is the place where we are all learners - students, staff, and parents - working together toward excellence. Pittsburgh West Liberty PreK-5 has a dedicated and experienced staff, strong Parent School Community Council, a hardworking Parent/Teacher Organization, and engaged families to help us to excel. Our students are respectful and hard working. Pittsburgh West Liberty PreK-5 is a place where your learners will excel!
Pittsburgh West Liberty Prek-5 is a newly renovated building. This remodel includes a brand new addition which houses a new library, and new science, music, and art classrooms. All of the classrooms in the building have been renovated and are equipped with state of the art learning technology. This technology includes interactive white boards, surround sound, and a device for every student to access their subscriptions to multiple online learning programs enabling learning to continue outside of the classroom. The outdoor garden that is maintained by students offers just a glimpse of the hands-on learning and problem solving that students experience inside the building as well.
To complement our strong academic programs, Pittsburgh West Liberty PreK-5 offers a growing range of extra-curricular activities such as: SECTEM, Carson Scholarship, musical concerts & performances, instrumental lessons, all-district track meets, Saltworks Performances, and social and emotional learning time and lessons. Also we have comprehensive counseling services, principal book of the month, and bullying prevention programs. In addition to the extra-curricular activities, Pittsburgh West Liberty PreK-5 has partnerships with KPMG, Family Links, The Neighborhood Learning Alliance, Oasis Tutoring, and the Carnegie Library - Brookline Branch to provide additional opportunities to our students. Leadership opportunities for students include peer tutoring, student council, and the Elementary National Honors Society. Finally, families of West Liberty students are always invited back to the school for open house nights, parent conferences, and other fun family events such as Fall Fest and bingo. Many of these events are sponsored by local Brookline businesses that strengthen the community partnerships within the neighborhood.
