Please note - the Greencastle Exchange Club Halloween Parade has been rerouted due to construction.
Please see below important travel information regarding the 10/15/21 varsity football game at Northern York:
Northern York is holding their 160th fall festival this weekend. You will not be able to follow the typical route. The coordinator of the event gave several options, with his strongest recommendation being to travel Rt. 15 thru Gettysburg and straight to Northern York.
He also gave this detour option:
Rt. 74, right into Rt 15 South
After the 2nd light (be in the left lane), turn left at the Sunoco station onto Golf Course Road
This road goes straight to the high school and the football field will be on your right.
If you travel the typical right that GPS suggests, you will be very late for the game.
Exciting news! The GASD School Board approved $2.00/hour raises for ALL SUPPORT STAFF. They also increased our daily sub rate from $100/day to $150/day and included an incentive pay for working multiple days per week in our district. We hope that this will help attract substitute teachers and support staff to our district. If you are interested in a career opportunity in our wonderful district please contact Heather Alvey, HR/Benefits Coordinator at halvey@gcasd.org or apply online at www.gcasd.org
GASD is proud to host a middle school cross country invitational this Friday, followed by our Greencastle Flyers! We are also inviting any 6th grade students interested in running to to participate in an open race at 5:45! Come join us to cheer on our GA runners!
