Rep Lieu Presents $2 Million in Federal Funds to Help with Miraleste Intermediate School Infrastructure Improvements
Image September 22, 2026 Press Release LOS ANGELES - Today, Congressman Ted W. Lieu (D-Los Angeles County) joined Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District leaders and community partners to tout the $2 million in community project funding that Congressman Lieu secured for Miraleste Intermediate School. In recent years, the school has experienced significant infrastructure needs. Miraleste Intermediate is a unique site because it is home to the Central Kitchen for Food Services, which provides prepared meals to 10 elementary schools, three intermediate schools, two comprehensive high schools and one continuation school. Replacing and renovating the utilities infrastructure, including the District Central Kitchen, at Miraleste Intermediate School will ensure that students continue to have their learning and wellness needs met, both at the school site and districtwide. “I’m pleased to have secured $2 million in federal funding for much-needed infrastructure improvements for Miraleste’s campus,” Rep. Ted Lieu said. “At a time when public education funding has been cut by the Trump Administration, this is an important boost to community efforts to create safe and productive environments for learning. These funds will help modernize the kitchen that helps provide meals for all Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District (PVPUSD) schools, will improve utility systems, and will strengthen building resilience in the event of earthquakes. I am excited to see how this project will enhance PVPUSD’s service to its students and staff.” ### Issues : Local Issues
