School Overview

Jefferson Middle School sits in Mt. Lebanon, one of Pittsburgh's most sought-after south suburbs, where tree-lined streets and a walkable village center give it a small-town feel despite being minutes from the city.

If you're considering a move to the Pittsburgh area and want a middle school that takes learning seriously without sacrificing that tight-knit community feel, Mt. Lebanon is hard to overlook.
