//Faculty:// The Lampeter-Strasburg High School faculty consists of approximately 83 teachers between the ages of 23 and 58. They represent 11 different content areas with various levels of education (Bachelors to post-Masters certification). There is a close 50/50 split between male and female teachers. The faculty is entirely white except for one female African-American teacher.

//Students:// Students are in a public high school environment. The approximate age of the learners are 13-18. The ethnicity of these high school students are as follows: white = 94.8%, black = 1.2%, Hispanic = 2.5%, Asian/Pacific Islander = 1.4%, and American Indian = 0.2%. Lampeter-Strasburg High School is significantly below the state and county average for both single-parent households with children (7.8 percent) and the economically disadvantage (8.3 percent). In addition, there are few rental properties, which means a smaller transient population. It is difficult to know whether the lack of rental properties is the cause or effect of single-parent households with children and the economically disadvantaged.
