Today was all about celebrating dedication, commitment, and the people behind the work.
During our staff recognition luncheon, we honored employees reaching years of service milestones and recognized our retirees for their many contributions to Pike-Delta-York Local Schools. Together, these individuals represent hundreds of years of service to our students, families, and community. Their impact can be seen in classrooms, hallways, offices, buses, cafeterias, and beyond.
Thank you for helping make PDY a place where students can learn, grow, and succeed. Congratulations to all of our honorees! 💚 🐾

Today, we are honored to recognize six incredible members of the Panther family as they begin their well-earned retirement.
Together, these dedicated individuals have contributed an astounding 205 years of service to Pike-Delta-York Local Schools. They have taught, supported, mentored, encouraged, coached, inspired, and cared for generations of students. While their years of service can be measured, the impact they have made on our schools, our students, and our community cannot.

Please join us in celebrating our retirees and thanking them for their commitment to PDY. We wish them happiness, good health, and many wonderful adventures in the years ahead. Once a Panther, always a Panther! 💚🐾

The seats are set. The stage is ready. And so are they. 🎓

Yesterday, the Class of 2026 gathered for graduation practice… one of the final moments before they officially walk across the stage and into their next chapter. It’s hard to believe the students who once walked through our doors as little Panthers are now preparing to take on the world.

Seniors, you’re ready.
Parents… are you? 💚🖤
