Superintendent's Briefing

Congratulations to Ananya Kannan, Alex Mendelsohn, and Brad Watkins as they have been named Commended Students in the 2026 National Merit Scholarship Program. A Letter of Commendation from the Central Dauphin High School and the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, which conducts the program, will be presented to these scholastically talented seniors during the Senior Awards Ceremony in May.

Thank you Mr. Turman and Mr. Lepore!

The Central Dauphin School District is thrilled to introduce our partnership with JA BizTown, a hands-on, kid-sized city where students become citizens for a day. They apply for jobs, run businesses, earn paychecks, vote, and make real-world decisions that bring economics, civics, and career readiness to life. Click the button above to watch the video.

The East Middle School NJHS members kicked off the year with their first service project: a park cleanup at Kohl/Lingle Park! With perfect weather and plenty of teamwork, students helped keep our community beautiful—and had a lot of fun doing it.

Proud to see our students leading with service and setting a great example.
