Hello Penn Manor families,
Penn Manor educators have developed continuity of education plans to help students continue learning from home while our schools are closed.
Here is a link to the resources.
These are optional, ungraded learning activities that students can complete from home. The resources have been developed to meet a variety of students’ needs and may not be the same across our school district.
Teachers will also be accessible to students and parents and will respond to any questions about the learning activities in a timely manner.
Currently, schools are scheduled to reopen on April 9th, but that date may change depending on Governor Wolf’s orders.
Thank you for your support of your child’s education in this challenging time.

Over the next few days, Eshleman teachers will be reaching out to our families via telephone! We would like to speak with you in an effort to move forward with some learning resources being made available for your child. If you receive a blocked call (unknown caller or caller id blocked), you may want to answer the phone this time! We are hoping to reach as many families as possible! Thank you for your help! We miss you all and hope you are doing well!
