I ama parent of 3 students from the Mifflin County school district. I feel very comfortable knowing that my kids are safe in school. Schools are clean and well equipped for any activity or project. Kids have many sports choices.

My experience through my years in the mifflin county school district has been mixed. While there are options for people that would like to go above and beyond like with TSA for stem and other clubs, the Gifted program is supposed to be the first line, especially for before your high-school years when there isn't as many or any clubs. My experience with the gifted program was very poor as it seemed a waist of time and had us learning less than what we would in out fay to day classes, this and other reasons is why I left the program. But in all mifflin county does students a secure and mostly calm place to learn and be part of clubs and sports, however I think I hold the opinion of alot of people in the district that I wish there was more work put into clubs other than just sports. However the stem clubs and wing in general has some amazing teachers that put allt of effort into their work and go so far beyond.
