Breakthrough Pittsburgh is a tuition-free, six-year academic program that is dedicated to creating a community of students that have access to programs and resources that enrich their knowledge, experiences, and skills. It is a vibrant learning community, where highly motivated students matriculate to and graduate from college, many as the first in their families to do so, and current college students emerge as leaders who are inspired to become the next generation of educators and child advocates.
No matter what’s gotten in your way, at Passport Academy Charter School (PACS), we’ll work with you to create an individualized plan for both high school and post-graduation success; to college, to a vocational program, or straight to a career that fits who you are. PACS serves high school students who are at least 17 but under age 21 who reside in Pennsylvania.
