School Board Approves Plans For High School

The Mt. Lebanon school board last night approved schematic drawings for what is now a $115 million high school renovation project.

Until last night, the board had talked about keeping the project at $110 million, which was earlier targeted as the district's borrowing limit. But more updated figures have increased the borrowing threshold to about $115.5 million, said Finance Director Jan Klein.

As a result, the majority of the board voted to include two additional lanes for the pool -- bringing the total to eight lanes -- and add a third gym to the renovation project.

  1. Adding two lanes gives us a 7 lane pool. Last week the Board Members wanted an 8 lane pool.

    All but 4 hours are scheduled not leaving enough time for community swimming at our Community Center.

  2. The "adding two lanes" refers to adding two lanes to the original plans calling for six lanes. So indeed they are discussing an eight lane pool.
