Imani Christian Academy has been serving the needs of the youth in the East Hills and beyond for over 30 years.

Imani Christian Academy began in 1993 as a faith-based school to serve low-income communities. Imani opened as a small school with 30 students operating in a single-family home. From that humble beginning, Imani has grown into a robust organization delivering educational excellence in a safe, caring, learning, environment free of violence.
Today, Imani serves an average of 152 students from pre-kindergarten through grade 12 in Pittsburgh’s East Hills. Our students come from various school districts in Allegheny County. Most of our students are African-American; and many come from single-parent households or are being raised by a grandparent or guardian. Imani’s individualized attention, high quality academic experience, and everyday exposure to positive role models create a learning environment tailored to the unique needs of African American students.
