Winchester Thurston School

The Future Grows Here. Founded in 1887, Winchester Thurston School is a nationally recognized, independent, coeducational, college preparatory day school in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Serving students from Junior Pre-K through Grade 12, WT is home to a dynamic community of learners and educators united by curiosity, creativity, and purpose. At WT, success is defined not only by rigorous academics and admission to selective colleges, but also by character, compassion, and leadership. Inspired by our founder’s command to “Think Also of the Comfort and the Rights of Others,” we guide students to become intellectually confident thinkers, skilled researchers, and engaged problem solvers prepared to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
