The Penn-Delco School District is a public education school district in Delaware County, Pennsylvania that encompasses the following municipalities: Aston Township, Brookhaven Borough, and Parkside Borough.
Started in 1960 by Dr. William G. Moser, who served as the district's first superintendent, the district was carved out of the nearby present-day Chester-Upland School District and was instrumental for the building of the Sun Valley Senior High School and administration building on land donated by the Sun Oil Company (now present-day Sunoco). In addition to the regular curriculum, in 1976, the U.S. Marine Corps Jr. ROTC (MCJROTC) program was offered for the first time and is only one of three MCJROTC units in the Delaware Valley area – the others being in nearby Chester City and in Bensalem.
Currently, the Penn-Delco School District operates the following schools:

The Sun Valley High School Vanguards play all interscholastic games in the Del-Val League, and prior to 2006, has played inter-league games with schools in the Ches-Mont and Southern Chester County Leagues. It will become an associate member of the new unified Ches-Mont League starting in the 2007-08 school year, with full membership, along with rival Chichester High School, a possibility in the 2008-09 year. Its ice hockey team has no school sponsorship and is an independent affiliate of the ICSHL
