Submission: June Letter from North Penn School District Board of School Directors

North Penn School Board Director Elisha K. Gee.

(The following is part of a series of monthly submissions from the North Penn School District Board of School Directors. This month’s submission was authored by North Penn School Board Director Elisha Gee. The views expressed within are her own.)

This month marked the end of the school year for North Penn School District’s (NPSD) 13,000-plus students. From kindergarteners learning to read, to middle schoolers tackling world languages for the first time, to our seniors preparing for life after high school, our classrooms were filled with unique individuals whom we have had the privilege of caring for during the 2022-2023 school year. I want to acknowledge all NPSD staff members who devoted their time, talent, and heart to ensure our students received the best possible education, day in and day out.

The NPSD Board of School Directors and I also want to congratulate the more than 1,000 members of the North Penn High School Class of 2023 on their remarkable journey these past 13 years, some more challenging than others. These graduates include commended scholars, state champions, student leaders, award-winning musicians and more.

Here is a snapshot of their future plans.

  • 324 will attend a PA state/state-affiliated university
  • 130 will attend private in-state university
  • 197 will attend out of state/international college/university
  • 184 will attend two-year community college or trade school
  • 97 will join the workforce
  • 25 will enlist in the United States Military  

It is year-long programs and hard work that ensure an excellent experience for our students and preparation for their lives to come. Throughout the summer, NPSD will continue to provide students with opportunities to learn and grow. Programs such as Extended School Year, sports, music and science camps, summer enrichment and remediation, and summer library are long-standing traditions in North Penn. I want to thank those staff members who work through the summer months for our students. 

Finally, to our community, I want to thank you for welcoming the Board of School Directors into your neighborhoods as we took our meetings on the road this school year and visited other locations to talk with residents about important issues and programs in our district, such as the Tax Rebate Program. 

Though we all deserve some relaxation this summer, please know that board members will continue to meet and discuss very important subjects in the coming months. I cannot stress more the importance of attending or watching these meetings so that you stay informed and give input on these matters.

Again, thank you for a great school year. Be well.

Signed,

Dr. Elisha Gee

Term Expiration: 2023
