REEDSVILLE Rose Marie Schulz, of Reedsville, has announced her intention to run for a seat on the Mifflin County School District Board of Directors.
Schulz is a full-time working wife and mother with what she calls a “passion for volunteering and strengthening our public education system.”
“As a candidate for MCSD school board, I feel it’s important to share what I have been involved in over the years,” Schulz said. “I was an active volunteer at (Indian Valley Elementary Center) for five years and served as board president for two years of the IVEC home and school association. I attended the annual PA Title I convention in 2016 and I’ve been a member of the district’s Local Advisory Committee since 2017. I have attended all school board meetings since January 2019 and continue to do so.

MCHS is the latest Mifflin County School District building forced to temporarily close due to having too many COVID-19 positive tests within it. On Monday, MCHS joined Strodes Mills Elementary School and Mifflin County Junior High School as schools forced to shutter for a few days just this week. The Mifflin County Academy of Science and Technology also had to temporarily close this week due to COVID cases among students and staff.
