Imani Christian Academy

Imani Christian Academy was founded in 1993 on the idea that regardless of their background, their resources, and their social inheritance -- ALL children deserve an education. Imani is a private Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 school in East Hills, serving approximately 210 children from 14 school districts in Allegheny County (with a waiting list). While open to all students, most are African American inner-city youth; and many come from single-parent homes or are being raised by relatives. Individualized attention, together with a rigorous academic curriculum and everyday exposure to positive role models provide a learning environment tailored to the students' needs. Our mission is to embrace all children in our society, particularly those who are underserved, transform them into whole adults - spiritually, academically, physically and socially - and launch them into lives of purpose and contribution. Our unique educational model unveils, develops, and nurtures each student in a safe, caring environment. We value each child!
