School Overview

Plum Middle School sits in the eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh, in the kind of tight-knit community where families tend to put down roots and stay. Scores land solidly in the middle of the pack statewide, making it a reasonable fit for families looking for a stable, no-frills public school experience without the intensity of some of the higher-pressure suburban districts nearby. The Plum Borough area itself offers that classic Pittsburgh suburban feel — affordable, unpretentious, and close enough to the city to enjoy what it has to offer while still feeling like its own place.
