CAMP HILL SCHOOL DISTRICTEducational Excellence Community Strength Student Success

Dear Camp Hill Community,

Camp Hill students, faculty and staff successfully ended the 2020-2021 school year thanks to everyone’s col-laborative and noble efforts. Together, we all continue to bring the school district vision of, “educational excel-lence, community strength, and student success” to life. The enthusiasm, persistence and positivity demonstratedin the final months of the school year by the entire educational community was impressive and promises a greatstart to school year 2021-2022.

Resuming student learning in person, while maintaining the health and safety of our students, faculty and staffremains our top priority. For the families interested in a remote option for student learning, the district is offeringthe Lion Academy, an enhancement of the Capital Area Online Learning Academy that includes increased stu-dent-school connection, a district employed distance learning coordinator, and other co-curricular and extra-cur-ricular enrichments. Further, the social-emotional needs of our students, and assuring a climate and culture thatfosters a sense of student belonging and that is conducive for learning remains of paramount importance.

I am committed to the level of excellence that has traditionally defined Camp Hill. Our shared values and com-mitment to providing all students with the foundational skills, knowledge, and opportunity for lifelong successwill continue to move us forward together.

Daniel D. SerfassSuperintendent
