Individualized Support That Helps Every Learner Grow, Belong, & Thrive

Mt. Lebanon's Special Education team partners closely with families to make sure students with disabilities have exactly what they need to succeed. From evaluations and Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) to specialized instruction, related services, and transition planning for life after high school, we walk alongside parents every step of the way. We believe the best outcomes happen when school and home move forward together, and we're proud to lead the way in creating a learning environment where each and every student is supported, included, and known.
