Lebanon school officials hear feedback on possible withdrawal from CTC

Lebanon School District officials said a majority of survey respondents support a proposed in-house career and technical education program as school board members consider a potential withdrawal from the Lebanon County Career and Technology Center . During the school board's committee of the whole meeting Nov. 9, officials reported the findings of public feedback about potential plans for developing an in-house career and technology education program (CTE). Throughout October, Lebanon district officials hosted three forums to get public feedback while they consider exiting the Lebanon County Career and Technology Center (CTC). In addition to the public forums, Lebanon Superintendent Nicole Malinoski said school officials met with Lebanon High School faculty, hosted a district focus group in September and met with 41 high school students currently enrolled in the CTC. "Our goal as an administrative team is that every student leaves enrolled, enlisted, or employed in a career that they love, and our students and community are at the heart of this decision that we are making," she said to school board members. "We truly want to make the best decision for the students and the families that we serve." The Lebanon Daily News reported that the public forums had low

York Catholic boys cruise past Dock Mennonite in PIAA 1A first round

Joe Nattans will take his starting lineup against any team in the state. The York Catholic coach has never doubted his players. Not when they played in the SCAC tournament final, not when they won their first District 3 title since 2011 and not Tuesday night against Dock Mennonite in the PIAA Class 1A first round. “When you get to this point in the season, every team’s good,” Nattans said. “But I told them I’d put our 11 up against anybody. We’re playing with confidence, but we’re also playing with understanding that we have to have our best game every time.” The Fighting Irish delivered on that expectation from Nattans in a 5-1 win over Dock Mennonite on Tuesday night. Russell Young led with two goals, and Landon Baker had two assists to push the Fighting Irish to their first trip to the PIAA quarterfinals since 2019.
