Schuylkill Haven Area School District

History came to life for our 4th graders yesterday! Students took a special walking tour through Schuylkill Haven with local historian Mr. Richard Nagle, who generously volunteered his time to share fascinating stories and little-known facts about our beloved town. From historic buildings to hidden landmarks, our students got an up-close look at the rich history that helped shape our community. Thank you, Mr. Nagle, for making history exciting, meaningful, and memorable!

We are incredibly proud to share some exciting news! Mr. Roger Krause has been named the Scouting America Hawk Mountain Council Educator of the Year—a well-deserved honor that recognizes his outstanding volunteerism and dedication to students. Through his hard work and vision, Mr. Krause established the National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP) right here in the Schuylkill Haven Area School District, giving our students a unique opportunity to grow in confidence, focus, and skill. Please join us in celebrating this incredible accomplishment. Congratulations, Roger, and thank you for making a lasting impact on our school community!

Along with Brendalis being honored for her hard work, Schuylkill Haven Area High School also won the Overall prize for outstanding work in the area of diversity and acceptance. The Advisors of our DAY club are Val Morrow, Caitlin Albon, and Jennifer Stauffer. We are very proud of the work that Brendalis and her classmates have done throughout the year to make SHAHS a great place to learn each day. Congratulations!!!

Congratulations to Senior Anna Schaeffer on her recognition this evening as the 2025 Schuylkill Haven Area High School female Scholar Athlete. Anna has left a legendary athletic and academic legacy at Schuylkill Haven Area that will serve as an inspiration to future Scholar Athletes. We wish Anna all the best of luck as she moves on to her collegiate career at Shippensburg University.

Parents and Caregivers, Please be advised that dismissal times may be impacted by the road construction and repairs necessitated by the water main break near Berne and Columbia Streets. Expect delays today. Road closures may impact our ability to drop students at their normal stops on busses 4 and 6. Parents that reside in this area may want to contact your child’s building office and pickup your children at the school today. Otherwise, we will determine a new drop-off point as close as we can get to the original stops. Those families will be called directly this afternoon. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

Congratulations to 8th Grade student Ava Krause! Ava proudly represented Schuylkill Haven Area at the Civics Bee held at Penn State Schuylkill on April 16th—and finished as one of the top 5 finalists! We’re so proud of her hard work, knowledge, and dedication to civic engagement. Way to go, Ava! https://www.republicanherald.com/2025/04/17/students-flex-civics-knowledge-at-local-round-of-national-civics-bee/
