Governor Mifflin High School & GMACC
Governor Mifflin School District cordially invites you to join us for our signature event, the Mustang Nation Learning Expo
Join us and explore what education looks like across our schools, grade levels, and disciplines through a variety of unique exhibitions and interactive activities. During the evening, you will be guided through innovative learning experiences, engaging lessons, and passion projects by those who know it best: our students and teachers! This is a free event and is open to all in our community.
Parking
Parking for attendees is available in the Governor Mifflin High School parking lot and Governor Mifflin Middle School parking lot. Please note that parking is NOT available at Immanuel UCC, as they will have their own programming occurring that evening and cannot accommodate Expo attendees. Please assist us in being respectful neighbors and do not park on their property.
NEW THIS YEAR: Food Trucks!
For this year, we will be joined by four food trucks: Pip and Lilly's Loaded Tots, Big Backs, Castaneda's Mexican Restaurant, and La Botanera. These vendors will be located outside of Governor Mifflin High School and will be available throughout the duration of the night for anybody to purchase dinner, snacks, or desserts on-site. We will also have several student-run snack carts, hot chocolate stands, and our student-run coffee shop, Groovy Grinds, located throughout the buildings, so please feel free to stop by and support these student-led business initiatives as well!
