The Donegal School District, in northwestern Lancaster County, is comprised of Marietta and Mount Joy Boroughs, East Donegal Township and approximately one third of Mount Joy Township.  Donegal School District is very desirable for commuters, as the location is close to Lancaster, York, Harrisburg, and Hershey and straddles the train line from Harrisburg to Philadelphia.  It’s close proximity to major metropolitan areas such as Baltimore (90 miles) and Philadelphia (85 miles) adds to the area’s desirability. The beautiful rolling hills and farmland, as well as the small-town atmosphere, have attracted an increasing numbers of families.
