Dominus, latin for owner, is Pittsburgh’s first and only high school focused on entrepreneurship. Dominus High School was designed to prepare students to contribute to the city’s startup ecosystem and to compete and lead globally. Through a flexible, collaborative, and hands-on educational experience, our students will be empowered to develop creativity, leadership and other essential entrepreneurial skills to prepare them to own their careers.
By equipping students with an entrepreneurial mindset at an early age, Dominus will bridge the gap between education and the practical skills entrepreneurs need to thrive. In doing so, we will help to build a strong pipeline of diverse, skilled entrepreneurs who can drive innovation and economic growth in the region.
