>>Middletown Area School District To Close 2 Schools, Build New One
(Harrisburg, PA) -- Dauphin County school planners say they'll close two elementary schools in the Middletown Area district and build a new primary school there. A website statement says Lyall J. Fink and John C. Kunkel Elementary Schools, which were both built in the early 1960s, have "outlived their intended life cycles." The district cites several new and planned housing developments in the area as the main reason for needing the new primary school.
