Central Fulton School District

What Central Fulton School District does

Central Fulton School District is a public K-12 school district organized as a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, headquartered at 151 East Cherry Street in McConnellsburg, Fulton County. It operates three schools on a single campus — McConnellsburg Elementary School (K-5), McConnellsburg Middle School (6-8), and McConnellsburg High School (9-12, Spartans) — serving resident students across the district's attendance area. Core services include academic instruction, athletics, counseling, food service (including a free summer lunch program), special education, transportation, and student support programs such as the McConnellsburg MS/HS Food Pantry and Care Closet. The district's technology stack is built entirely on third-party platforms: Canvas for learning management, Skyward/Qmlativ for the student information system (migrated to Qmlativ in late July), Securly for web filtering and student-safety monitoring on school-issued devices, Google for email, Thrillshare for mobile communications, and Apptegy for the district website. Revenue is derived from local property taxes, Pennsylvania basic education funding, and federal grants; the district is governed by an elected Board of School Directors, led by Superintendent Dr. Christina Ramsey, and reports approximately 43 staff across schools and the district office. There are no commercial customers, tuition, or fee-for-service revenue streams — the operating model is the standard public-school managed-services structure rather than a venture-backable commercial product.
