7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePrincipal Ramsey is an excellent educator and leader. My two children with learning differences excelled with the support provided here, going from having reading difficulties to testing in the 90th percentile. Mrs. Phillips is incredible as well.Unfortunately all that support disappears when you get to Mellon. Move to the other side of Lebo when your kids hit middle school.Parent Review2y ago - Mt Lebanon Senior High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe first post was pretty much correct. Do not move here if you don’t have money or can do something for someone. Also, there is no help for kids who struggle. You will however be harassed or ignored. Stay away.Other Review2mo ago - Mellon Middle School
