We were honored to recently welcome a group of retired educators for a private tour, led by Principal Joe Reidy, of our newly renovated Mechanicsburg Area Senior High School! 🏫 Their dedication and contributions laid the foundation for the successes of our district today. It was an honor to show them how their legacy continues to inspire future generations.
The tour was one of many items auctioned during the recent The Wildcat Foundation Night.

LET'S CELEBRATE OUR STEP ACADEMY GRADS // We were honored to attend a special ceremony recently to celebrate our MASH Wildcats who graduated from the STEP program at HACC, Central Pennsylvania's Community College. HACC’s Set Goals, Take Action, Expect Great Things and Put in the Work (STEP) Academy prepares students for college and careers. The STEP Academy provides students with 140 hours of college and career readiness and exploration that will last a lifetime - including an OSHA safety certification, CPR certification and the National Career Readiness Certificate. Thanks to generous donations from the Justamere Foundation through the HACC Foundation, our Wildcats jointed students from Steelton-Highspire Jr./Sr. High School to participate in, and graduate from, the STEP Academy earlier this year. Please help us celebrate our STEP Academy grads. 📸 Special thanks to our friends at HACC, Central Pennsylvania's Community College for the photo.


We recently sent a team of Wildcats to the Council for Exceptional Children conference, where they had an opportunity to continue to learn and grow while also connecting with other educators and advocates. From innovative strategies to meaningful collaboration, our team brought back new insights that will allow us to continue meeting the needs of all our Wildcats.
