Some Criticize Mt. Lebanon's Handling Of Obama's Speech

The Mt. Lebanon school board heard from several parents and residents last night who criticized the superintendant's handling of President Obama's Sept. 8 national speech to students.

Edward Modaro, a member of the Mt. Lebanon Democratic Committee, requested that Mt. Lebanon show the speech in its schools, advising parents in advance that it would be shown and allowing them to opt out. He called the decision not to show the speech to all students during school hours "politically motivated."

Superintendent Dr. Timothy Steinhauer said teachers were given the option of showing the speech to their class and that some teachers did so.
