Cumberland Valley High School
Cumberland Valley High School (CV) is a public high school founded in 1954. It is located in the Cumberland Valley School District of Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. In the 2019–2020 school year, according to the National Center for Education Statistics, the school had 2,809 pupils enrolled in the ninth to twelfth grades. The school employed 150.75 full-time equivalent teachers yielding a student:teacher ratio of 18.66:1. The mascot is an Eagle. The Cumberland Valley High School serves the four townships of Hampden, Middlesex, Monroe and Silver Spring in Cumberland County. The area included in the school system extends from Carlisle to Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. This area is suburban and is located fifteen miles west of Harrisburg. The combined junior-senior high school opened in September 1954 to 800 students. The school has steadily grown since that time. This is evident by the size of only the freshman class of 2014, which amounts to about 705 students. All schools in the district, except for Monroe Elementary, have been re-built or remodeled due to significant student population growth. Seven elementary schools and two middle schools funnel into the high school. The middle schools are: Mountain View Middle School and Eagle View Middle School. The library (known as IMC, stands for "Instructional Materials Center" ) is a learning center providing books, magazines, daily newspapers, audiovisuals, and CD-ROMs. Students use computers to access library resources, the Internet and to do word processing and graphical analysis. They also have interlibrary loan privileges with other libraries in the state. The school has offered the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme since 2011.The Performing Arts Center, known as the PAC, is much more than a traditional auditorium. It rivals many professional theaters, with its large 1,500 seat audience capacity, including an orchestra level, mezzanine, and balcony, a large stage with a sunken orchestra pit that elevates to increase the stage area, and professional light and sound capabilities. Students have opportunities to participate in and provide crew and tech support for many vocal and instrumental concerts, plays, and an annual musical that is always a sell out.
