Three Conewago Valley students tapped for York College community-opportunity scholarships

The assistant superintendent told the board on June 8 that Conewago Valley SD was invited to participate in York College’s community opportunity scholarship program and that three students from the district — one more than the two initially expected — were selected to take summer courses and receive full tuition support to attend York College in the future.

Officials said the students have begun summer classes in English and mathematics and will participate in preparatory activities, community service and support programming intended to increase college success. The district noted this is the first year York College expanded the program beyond the city of York and that Conewago Valley is among the initial outside districts participating.

Superintendent Dr. Perry and board members congratulated the students and said the district will track their progress and share updates with the board.
