# 2026-11-09 MTLSD School Board Joint Discussion/Voting Regular Meeting

The Mount Lebanon School District Board held a regular meeting on November 10, 2026. The meeting opened with remarks of condolence for the community and welcomed Michael Rhodes as the new Howell Elementary principal. Financial reports noted an anticipated surplus of approximately $284,000. November budgetary transfers totaling $325,000 for curricular materials and technology supplies were presented for approval, along with a list of unusable equipment; the transcript does not clearly capture item-specific vote results. The board also reviewed 10 tax refunds totaling $16,614.56.

Curriculum discussion addressed proposed 2027–2028 graduation requirements and course offerings, which were scheduled for board consideration at a later meeting. Board members raised questions about science and STEM course flexibility, summer course availability, and broader representation in social studies, world languages, and literature. AP cybersecurity and a new science-partner course were mentioned. The board also considered a wrestling tournament trip funded by the Blue Devil Club and a Washington Elementary PTA crowdfunding request; the transcript provides no clear spending amount or vote outcome for the crowdfunding request. No specific contract award or vendor selection was identified.
