Education
The Juniata River Valley is served by four public school districts and a number of excellent charter and parochial schools, educating nearly 10,000 students annually. Life-long learning is an important aspect of a successful life, and local residents enjoy access to a number of excellent options.
The Mifflin County Academy of Science & Technology not only offers career and technical education programs to local high school students, but also includes a variety of adult and post-secondary courses. The expanding Geisinger-Lewistown Hospital School of Nursing’s rigorous, two-year RN diploma program consistently supplies highly-trained medical personnel to the area as well.
