Pittsburgh Urban Christian School

This school has been claimed by the school or a school representative.

PUCS believes that all of life is rooted in Christ the Redeemer who is the integrator of our lives. We inspire our students to see the world as a whole, emphasizing the natural connections between subjects.

Our vision is to be a model of excellence in education by affirming Biblical values in a diverse and urban setting. Our mission is to equip students to thrive academically, emotionally, and spiritually, in order to serve.

Our goal is not to be a great Christian school; it’s to be a great school. We believe this is only possible by paying attention to God’s priorities, and viewing children and the world through His lens. And we want to do it here, in the city, where opportunity and need intersect.

Academic success is not worth pursuing at the expense of thriving emotionally and spiritually. The ultimate goal, “in order to serve.” Our idea of a successful student is one who seeks excellence to bring glory to God and to serve others, rather than for individual reward.
