The administration, teachers, and staff at Penn-Delco School District take pride in our instructional programming and the academic achievement of our students.  The Pennsylvania Department of Education awarded the Keystone Achievement Award to schools in the Penn Delco School District for their success in meeting Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for the last eight years.  Last year, Coebourn Elementary School was recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School.  In 2010 and 2011, Aston Elementary School was awarded a Pennsylvania School of Character Award.   Further, 91% of our graduating students in 2012 attended a two or four year college.   All of this success is due to the strong foundation Penn-Delco School District provides for the students at all levels.
