If you’re buying a new home in the Pittsburgh area, chances are school districts are at the top of your list (whether you have kids now or might down the road). At Foxlane Homes, we build in some of the sought-after districts in the Pittsburgh suburbs, so you can feel confident about your investment and your community. Here’s a closer look at the four top-rated districts where you’ll find Foxlane neighborhoods in the area — and why families love them.
Peters Township School District
Peters Township is a favorite for its small-town charm, strong community feel, and consistently top-ranked schools. In fact, the Peters Township School District ranks among the best in all of Pennsylvania with high test scores across the board. Families here love the combination of high-quality education and close-knit community. Plus, you’re just a short drive from shops, parks, and South Hills conveniences. Our Camden Village neighborhood is nestled within the district, but if you’d like to live there you’d better hurry: currently only one quick move-in home remains!
South Fayette Township School District
Less than 20 miles from downtown Pittsburgh and tucked into the area’s rolling hills, South Fayette Township School District has earned a reputation as one of the area’s top-performing districts. With around 3,500 students and a 16:1 student-teacher ratio, it strikes a nice balance between a tight-knit community and big opportunities. What’s more, over 85% of students score proficient or higher in reading and the district puts a strong focus on innovation and technology. You’ll find our Stonegate community in the heart of it all, and with our final homesites and a designer-decorated model home now selling, it’s a great time to make your move.
Upper St. Clair School District
The Upper St. Clair School District is known for excellence at every level, from elementary schools to high schools. The district regularly ranks among the top in the state, with a graduation rate near 99% and a long list of accolades, including multiple National Blue Ribbon Awards. It’s no surprise our Upper St. Clair neighborhood is nearly sold out — in fact, there’s just one homesite remaining. If you’re dreaming of building in a district that values academics, arts, and well-rounded growth, this might be the one.
North Allegheny School District
The North Allegheny School District serves over 8,000 students and is consistently ranked as one of the best school districts not just in Pittsburgh, but in the entire state and nation. With top-notch academics, competitive sports, and a wide range of extracurriculars, it’s a district that offers something for everyone. We’re excited to bring Cardinal Ridge to life in this incredible area. Stay tuned: it will be a boutique-style townhome neighborhood you won’t want to miss.
