Schools

The High schools will see the first change, 10th through 12th graders at Indian Valley High and Lewistown High will be placed at the new Mifflin for the 2011-12 school year. Five schools were closed and the former Indian Valley and Lewistown Middle Schools were retrofitted to serve students in grades 4-5, however Indian Valley serves students in grades K-5, due to its size.
