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.

Penn College receives ‘Best for Vets’ recognition

Williamsport, Pa. — Pennsylvania College of Technology is among 370 institutions nationwide and 15 in the state recognized in the Military Times’ 2026 Best for Vets: Colleges rankings. “The military-connected student today looks different than many people imagine,” said Jon Simkins, editor-in-chief of Military Times. “It’s a veteran starting a second career, a Guard member balancing drill weekends with classes, a spouse finishing a degree between moves. The schools on this year’s list understand that, and they’re building support around the real lives of the people they serve. That’s exactly what we want our readers to know when they’re choosing where to invest their education benefits.” Colleges and universities are selected for the list based on a detailed survey of each school’s policies, programs and outcomes. The survey covers school culture, student support services, academic policies, costs and financial assistance, and military-connected student success rates. This is the fourth time Penn College has made the Best for Vets list. “The folks at Military Times conduct one of the most comprehensive evaluations of colleges and universities across the country. We are proud at Penn College to be recognized for our long-standing commitment to supporting those who have chosen to serve our
