The mission of the Ephrata Area School District is to provide quality educational programs, which enable and inspire all students to reach their full potential as life-long learners and responsible contributing members of society. 

 

Located in the northeast corner of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, the Ephrata Area School District provides exceptional public education to nearly 4,000 students in Kindergarten through Grade 12 in eight facilities. With nearly 300 teachers and 200 support staff employed, the District offers the best in education, from innovative programs to technology in every classroom.

 

During the 2007-2008 school year, over 65 % of the senior class took the SAT, with an average score of  509 in Critical Reading, 508 in Math, and 504 in Writing.  Over 100 Ephrata High School students took 231 AP tests in 10 different subject areas. 77% of the scores were at the commended level.

 

Our graduating Class of 2008 was the largest in District history. They received nearly $2.1 million in scholarships to continue their education. Of that same graduating class, 70% planned to attend a 2 or 4-year college program after high school.
