Teaching is a challenging and rewarding career. In today’s social and world climate, it seems more important than ever to help build strong minds and character in our children. By becoming a teacher in our school district, you can be a part of making that happen.

The municipalities we serve (including Eldred Borough and Eldred and Otto Townships) are within a two-hour drive of Erie, Pennsylvania, and Buffalo, New York. The Allegheny National Forest and all of its associated outdoor recreational activities are also within a 30-mile drive from the district office.
