The Kiski School

1888 Brett Lane
877-547-5448

Established in 1888, the Kiski School is one of the oldest all-boys college preparatory boarding schools in the United States. Kiski's beautiful, 350-acre campus is located in Saltsburg, Penn., 30 miles east of Pittsburgh.

The Kiski School exists to prepare young men to succeed in college and, in so doing, to prepare them to succeed in life.

We are a school for boys: an environment for living and learning built around a boy's unique qualities and dedicated to serving each boy's needs.

We believe in the fullest development of every boy's mind, body, and soul, and do so by exposing each to growth opportunities in our academic, athletic, artistic, and extracurricular arenas.

We believe in an academic environment that stretches our boys' capacities, ignites a passion for the pursuit of knowledge, and creates ambitious thinkers who can compose and command their own unique thoughts.

We believe that success is defined in two ways: the cultivation of academic excellence; and the development of a boy's character, integrity, self-discipline, and civility.

We believe that the people who instruct, guide, and train those in our charge are our most important asset. Our teachers define the quality of our school, providing every boy with sound instruction and positive role models.

We believe our community helps our boys to develop standards of honesty, humility, tolerance, respect, and other characteristics of personal and social responsibility.

We believe in creating an atmosphere where boys can make their mark based upon their individual character, ability, and perseverance.
