On a Thursday morning, eighth grade student-athletes from Lincoln Middle School: walked into McCaskey High School knowing this wasn’t a typical school day.They weren’t there for practice or a game. They were there to participate in the district’s Change the Narrative leadership workshop led by Tavon Parker.
Hosted in partnership with McCaskey Red Tornado, the program brings middle school and high school student-athletes together for weekly sessions focused on character development, identity, discipline, and personal growth. McCaskey student-athletes have been participating since the start of the school year. Now, during the second half of the year, Lincoln’s eighth graders are joining them.
The workshop meets every Thursday, with two one-hour sessions led by high school students, and will continue through the end of the school year. The consistency is intentional. The goal is to build relationships over time, not just host a single event.

Congratulations to Jackson Middle School student Kevin Bonaparte for an incredible academic achievement!
Kevin is the only student from the School District of Lancaster to qualify for the @witforg @pennon.education Central Pennsylvania Spelling Bee Finals, which will take place on March 21, 2026, at Harrisburg University of Science and Technology in Harrisburg.
Back in December, Kevin placed fourth out of 220 spellers in the @sdol_hurricanes Spelling Bee. The winner of the Central Pennsylvania Spelling Bee will move on to represent the region at the Scripps National Spelling Bee in the Washington, D.C. area this May.
Kevin’s success reflects the power of perseverance and the high expectations we hold for every learner across the district. As outlined in our 2024–2029 Strategic Plan, we are committed to promoting academic excellence through rigorous learning experiences and meaningful opportunities for students to challenge themselves and grow.
We are proud of Kevin for representing Jackson Middle School and the School District of Lancaster with excellence. We wish him the very best as he takes the stage in Harrisburg on March 21.
