The New Academy CS

Academy CS, located at 900 Agnew Road in Pittsburgh, is a specialized educational facility operating under the Allegheny Intermediate Unit (AIU). The school is primarily recognized for its commitment to serving students with specific behavioral and emotional needs through the "Alternative Education for Disruptive Youth" (AEDY) program. By providing a highly structured environment, the school aims to support students who may have struggled in traditional classroom settings, focusing on both academic progress and behavioral development to help them eventually transition back to their home districts.

The program at Academy CS emphasizes individualized instruction and social-emotional learning, utilizing a smaller student-to-teacher ratio to ensure personalized attention. In addition to core academic subjects, the curriculum integrates therapeutic support and behavioral intervention strategies designed to equip students with the coping mechanisms and self-regulation skills necessary for long-term success. Through this targeted approach, the school serves as a vital resource within the Pittsburgh area for families seeking a supportive path toward educational and personal stability.
