McCaskey Track and field athletes have given Lancaster plenty to celebrate, and a recent visit from Senator Scott Martin brought recognition for their accomplishments back to the school where much of the work began.
Senator Martin joined the team to congratulate its success, including Vivian Salerno’s 800-meter victory at the AAU Junior Olympic National Championships and Coach Derek Jennings’ recognition as Pennsylvania Coach of the Year. The visit gave students and their coach a chance to celebrate achievements that have brought attention to McCaskey well beyond their home track.
Thank you Senator Martin for visiting McCaskey and celebrating our student-athletes and Coach Jennings. With the spring season ahead, the team is eager to bring that success back to its home track and give Lancaster more to cheer for! ... See MoreSee Less
Hazel I Jackson helped change who could stand at the front of a classroom in Lancaster and what future generations could imagine for themselves. As Hazel I. Jackson Middle School marked what would have been its namesake’s 100th birthday, the school community honored her through a Day of Action dedicated to service and well-being.
Students, families, School District of Lancaster staff and community members gathered around the theme “HEALTHY IN & OUT…a better YOU!” Participants rotated through stations that offered practical ways to support their physical and mental health while learning alongside one another.
Thank you to everyone who helped Jackson Middle School celebrate its namesake and support the community she served. Through the people who showed up to share their time and knowledge, students could experience how Hazel I. Jackson’s commitment to community service continues in their own school.
