Staying Connected
Our social work team joined colleagues from across Pennsylvania at Millersville University for the annual conference of the Pennsylvania Association of School Social Work Personnel (PASSWP), a statewide gathering dedicated to strengthening the essential role of social workers in schools.
The two-day conference brought together school social workers, home and school visitors, counselors, psychologists, and graduate students for learning grounded in current research, emerging practices, and the shared experiences of professionals who serve on the front lines of student support.
Each session reinforced a truth we see every day in SDoL, school social workers are vital connectors. They link students to resources, strengthen partnerships between home and school, help families navigate complex systems, and create learning environments where each child feels seen, supported, and safe.
We are proud of how our social workers show up for students and families, and equally proud that they continue to invest in their own growth. Their commitment creates pathways for our students to learn, thrive, and access the supports they deserve.
The work they do is not always visible, but its impact is felt everywhere. Way to go team!
Computer Science Education Week invites schools across the country to highlight why computer science matters and to celebrate students who are using technology to shape their futures. At the School District of Lancaster, the focus of this week is not only on what students are learning in classrooms. It’s also on how they are applying those skills to strengthen their community.
At McCaskey, the heart of that work lives within a group of students who have chosen to use computer science to create meaningful change. They call themselves the TECHnadoes, a name that reflects the energy and initiative they bring to every meeting, every workshop, and every conversation about digital equity.
As the TECHnadoes begin their winter workshop series, they carry with them the spirit of CSEdWeek. They show that when students are empowered, they build solutions that reach far beyond the classroom.
Sign up for one of their classes! They have 22 laptops to give to families. At every class, 7-8 families will be randomly selected to receive a laptop! For more information, visit our website.
