Academics
The office of the Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Education oversees the curriculum, instructional resources, assessment and professional development for grades K through five at the seven elementary schools. Major emphasis areas include literacy, numeracy, technology integration, differentiated instruction and alignment to standards.
The Mt. Lebanon School District has seven high performing elementary schools. While each school has unique features, we offer a strong and consistent curriculum across the buildings. Our Elementary Curriculum Council, made up of teachers, administrators and support staff, lead course content and design, selection of materials and assessments and professional development.
