Superintendent discusses the success of district’s strategic plan

Superintendent Brian McBride introduced the Palmyra School District’s strategic plan for review during his report at the Board of Education meeting on Wednesday, April 12. While the plan maps out five years, McBride said progress should be looked at one year at a time. He said this gives the district the opportunity to ask if the actions it took over the course of a year were successful and see if its mission statement remains relevant.

Changing perceptions of Palmyra High School

Riverton resident Jody Demas said when she and a group of fellow parents heard outdated word-of-mouth circulating about Palmyra High School two years ago, they knew it was time to set the record straight. They formed the Palmyra High School Foundation for Educational Excellence, a non-profit charity to support Palmyra High School. The organization’s goal is to distribute accurate information about the high school and raise funds to ensure the school remains up-to-date.
