Thank you, Austin, for your incredible work restoring a school pavilion at the IS/MS building as part of your Eagle Scout project! Your dedication to our school and community is truly inspiring. Here's what Austin had to say about the project: "Hello, my name is Austin Lawhorne and I was asked by Mr. Potteiger to fix a pavilion on the school grounds that had been damaged by a fallen tree. I accepted, without hesitation, as I was looking for an Eagle Scout project at the time. I cut down the tree, fixed the roof, and cleaned up the area. I am so glad that I was asked to do this project, as this school means a lot to me and being asked by the Superintendent to do a project for the school and the community, means a lot."--Austin

PennDOT’s Paint the Plow program is back, and our Art Club students brought their creativity to life! 🎨❄️ This year’s theme, 'Use Your Reason When It’s Freezin’,’ encouraged students to design artwork promoting safe winter driving. Our plow, now officially picked up by PennDOT, will help spread this important message while clearing roadways this winter. We’re so proud of our students for representing our school and showcasing their talent in such a meaningful way. Great job, Art Club! 👏✨
