Today, The Middle invited our HS family, along with the entire maintenance and custodial crew, down to enjoy a good ol' fashioned cookout, and what a rousing success it was! Middle school teachers and staff prepped, grilled, and brought in a variety of delicious offerings to share with our friends "on top of the hill", as they continue to show their resilience and fortitude in the face of unexpected challenges. SPECIAL thanks to Wegmans of Lancaster, who graciously donated all the fresh burgers, hot dogs, buns, and cases of water for the event!
Heck, we had so much fun, maybe this will become an annual event! (minus the weather, please...)
Today was a great day to be a Golden Knight!

IT'S STILL A GREAT DAY TO BE A KNIGHT!
After adjusting our original opening day plans, we were proud to officially welcome back our entire Eastern York staff this morning with a special gathering at the middle school!

It was a great morning to welcome our newest Golden Knights, recognize staff members for their years of dedicated service, and come together as one team as we prepare for another great year serving the students and families of Eastern York.

The past few days may have changed our plans, but they certainly haven’t changed who we are or what we’re here to do. It’s a GREAT DAY to be a Golden Knight!

After joining our staff late in the spring, we are excited to see what he can do with a full year at the Middle! Welcome, Mr. Turnbull! 👏👏

We are excited to introduce the Eastern York community to Mr. Cael Turnbull! 👏👏🎉

Although Cael joined Eastern York during the spring of 2026, we're excited to officially introduce him to our community! Cael is an ELA teacher at EYMS. A graduate of Dallastown High School and Temple University, Cael is passionate about helping students grow. What he enjoys most about working in education is watching students figure things out, build confidence, and seeing just how much they've grown by the end of each school year.

Outside of the classroom, Cael coaches wrestling and enjoys golfing, working out, and spending time with friends and family. When it's time to get away, you'll most likely find him in the mountains. And if you're wondering where his sports loyalties lie, his answer is simple: every team from Philadelphia!

Please join us in giving Cael a warm Eastern York welcome!
It's a great DAY to be a KNIGHT!
