PA high schools do not need a phone ban

Pennsylvania’s statewide phone ban is claimed to help reduce student distraction and help students improve their grades. Many adults believe phones interfere with learning, but phones don’t solve the full issue. Lawmakers are focusing on the wrong problem or purposefully blaming phones as an easy way out so it looks like they’re doing something. All they are doing is putting band-aids on bullet holes. It might cover the issues, but it doesn’t repair the damage left underneath.

York High falls to Harrisburg in District 3 Class 6A first round

As Harrisburg players cleared the field and Cougar fans descended the bleachers to join them in celebration, York High coach Bud Kyle gathered his players near the center of Severance Field for a final huddle. For the Bearcats, their season ended the same way it began — a loss to the Cougars, this time a 42-6 final dealt in the first round of the District 3 Class 6A bracket. The Bearcats had been shut down all afternoon by the Cougars' defense, and their hopes for payback for their Week 1 loss were dashed. But the Bearcats had worked and scraped to earn a spot in the playoffs as the No. 12 seed, and Kyle wanted to give his seniors a final moment to speak to their teammates candidly. "For those guys to even get into the playoffs with us getting hired and starting late, and them buying into what we were telling them to do, we couldn't have asked for a better group of seniors," Kyle said. "A lot of changes happened during the year, however we're proud of them for sticking it out and fighting through it." Week 11 SCAC Scores: York Catholic routs Newport in 2A semis, District

State College Area school board hears plan to drop ‘Little’ from Lions

State College, Pa. — A State College Area School District committee asked the school board Monday, Nov. 2, for its “blessing” to drop “Little” from the district’s Little Lions name, adopt the motto “Honor the Pride,” and hold a design contest for a new logo. The board took no vote as the presentation was an information item. Jonathan Bucher, assistant superintendent of secondary education, presented the committee’s plan, which would keep the district’s maroon and gray colors and its eight elementary school mascots. A student and community artwork contest would produce finalists that the committee would bring to the board “for final approval,” according to the presentation. No contest timeline was given. The current logo was created in 1985 by a student, and the district has no comprehensive guide to its approved markings, fonts and colors, the committee said. A survey drew about 600 responses, and students told the committee they do not like being called little, according to the presentation. “Honor the Pride” would possibly replace the motto “We Are the Future,” and a new lion design must avoid “visual confusion with the Nittany Lion,” the committee said. Members debated an African lion versus a mountain lion. The committee
