The Forest City Regional School District is located in the small borough of Forest City, Pennsylvania, USA in the northeastern corner of the state. It is a public school district made up of students from Susquehanna, Lackawanna and Wayne counties, including the boroughs of Forest City, Vandling and Union Dale and the townships of Mount Pleasant, Clinton and Herrick. The district covers an area of 87.82 square miles. The district started with three buildings, two elementary schools (William Penn Elementary, Lincoln Elementary) and Forest City High School. An addition to the high school was done in 1967. In 1971, the three schools were combined into one. In 1995, the building was again expanded. A new gymnasium, an auditorium, a computer lab, a chemistry lab and more classrooms were added. Extensive remodeling was also done at this time to the existing structure. The high school serves as the starting point for the Steamtown Marathon.
