Red Land

The 14-day active COVID case count at Allen Middle School and Red Land High School remains above the masking threshold. As a result, masks will be required for an additional 5 calendar days (January 18-23) at Allen and Red Land. On January 23, cases will be reevaluated again, with the potential for an additional 5 days of masking at that time.  

The District is hosting a special workshop for parents, guardians, staff, and other members of our school community.  This FREE, two-hour program, presented by Byrnes Health Education and sponsored by the West Shore Foundation, will focus on the signs, symptoms, and current trends relative to the use of tobacco/vaping, alcohol, marijuana, inhalants, heroin, and synthetic drugs by teenagers. Additionally, to assist adults in identifying how teens may hide substance use, a mock bedroom will be set up with drug and alcohol paraphernalia.

The District is seeking your feedback regarding a proposed calendar for the 2022-2023 school year.  The deadline for submitting comments is Monday, February 7, 2022 at 4 p.m. After reviewing suggestions received, the Board of School Directors will likely take action on approval of a calendar at its meeting on February 17, 2022.

Throughout the school year, the Board and administration work to prepare a budget for the following school year.

All West Shore families are welcome to join us on Tuesday January 25,  from 6-7 p.m. at the Administration Center for a Special Education Department Parent Information Session. During the session, members of the Special Education Department will provide an overview of the programs offered in our District and will be available to answer parent questions related to special education services. 

When deciding whether to switch to remote learning, delay classes, or dismiss school early, there are multiple factors to be considered, but always at the forefront of our decision-making process is the safety of our children and District staff members.

Throughout the 2021-2022 school year, Dr. Stoltz will be sharing messages and important community updates with West Shore students, staff, and families. The last update, sent Sunday, December 12, 2021, shares information regarding masks in schools and at extracurricular events following the ruling by the PA Supreme Court to affirm the Commonwealth Court’s decision to vacate the mask Order issued by the Acting Secretary of the Department of Health.

On the heels of the Red Land High School Baseball team winning their third consecutive Mid-Penn Commonwealth Division Championship, as well as the 2019 State 5A Championship, upgrades to our baseball and softball facilities are essential.
