The Pittsburgh Legacy Academy
About
At Pittsburgh Legacy Academy Homeschool Resource Center, our mission is to partner with God, with parents, and with the community to empower children through education to live out their true identities. We believe every child is created in the image of God and holds a massive capacity for understanding and creativity. Our instructors holdfast to a Christ-centered, Biblical worldview and have a passion to empower children with their knowledge and skillset.
We understand that the traditional education system often falls short in helping children reach their highest potential. As homeschooling parents, you’ve taken bold steps to ensure your children receive a meaningful and personalized education. We're here to support that journey — not replace it — by offering rich, hands-on learning opportunities grounded in faith, truth, and excellence.
A Vision for the Future
Seth Wermager, the director of Legacy Academy, left his public education career of fourteen years to pursue a vision for a greater education for our nation’s children.
In Phase 1, Pittsburgh Legacy Academy will continue expanding the Homeschool Resource Center to eventually offer dozens of courses that serve hundreds of homeschool students of all ages. From traditional courses like calculus or chemistry to more specialized elective courses like baking or carpentry, we envision the Legacy Academy Homeschool Resource Center providing innovative learning opportunities to empower children to develop and thrive in their true, God given identities.
In Phase 2, The Legacy Academy will open a private Christian school for full time enrollment. With a special emphasis on a rigorous literacy curriculum that develops critical thinkers and prolific writers and communicators, students will also have dozens of elective classes to choose from to supplement their core classes. Students will develop skills and experience in vocations they show interest in through the elective courses offered at the Resource Center, as well as apprenticeship opportunities.
