District collecting Evans City school memorabilia
As the working life of the Evans City Elementary/Middle School winds down, Seneca Valley School District officials are eager to commemorate its 84 years of educating students in and around the borough.
Because the district is closing the school at the end of the current school year, special events and ceremonies are planned to celebrate the school where hundreds of students learned and made lifelong memories.
To start, the district is collecting artifacts and stories from current and former students and staff that would commemorate the school, which opened on March 11, 1938, as Evans City High School.
Linda Andreassi, Seneca Valley’s director of communications, sits on the committee planning the commemoration events.
She said in addition to memorabilia and stories, the committee is looking for former students or staff members who would like to help with the effort.
