Another excellent grade for our District
  
I really enjoy sharing good news.  On Thursday, we learned that the Pittsburgh Business Review has ranked our district among the top 25 school districts academically in the Commonwealth. In a state with over 501 school districts, this is a tremendous accomplishments for our students, staff and community.

For the first time in district history, all 10 elementary schools and the Marsh Creek 6th Grade Center will offer before and after school care.  This new program will also provide child care in your child's school on in-service days and during school closures.
