Ms. McGeehan and her students attended an award ceremony at Normandy Farms, celebrating manufacturing in Pennsylvania. They competed against several other middle schools and had the honor of receiving a message from Governor Shapiro. It was truly inspiring to see our students recognized for their hard work and dedication. This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without Ms. McGeehan’s initiative and her constant support in encouraging and guiding her students. It was a proud moment for all of us! La Sra. McGeehan y sus alumnos asistieron a una ceremonia de premiación en Normandy Farms, que celebraba la industria manufacturera en Pensilvania. Compitieron contra otras escuelas secundarias y tuvieron el honor de recibir un mensaje del gobernador Shapiro. Fue realmente inspirador ver a nuestros alumnos reconocidos por su arduo trabajo y dedicación. Este logro no habría sido posible sin la iniciativa de la Sra. McGeehan y su constante apoyo para animar y guiar a sus alumnos. ¡Fue un momento de orgullo para todos!
