door opened for Amanda Calhoun. Now she is opening doors for others. On July 1, Calhoun started her dream job as principal of the school in her backyard, East Petersburg Elementary. “It’s been awesome,” she said. “It’s just been a thrill to be able to serve my community in this role as a principal. The whole summer felt like a lot of anticipation for the school year to come, and I was just really excited for the students to get here, so it was great. It was great on Aug. 19 when we had our Sneak Peek. Aug. 20, we got students in, and since then it’s just been really, really awesome to serve in this way.” There are always new adventures and opportunities. “What I love about the principalship is that it is different every single day,” Calhoun said. “I love the excitement of there’s a routine to a school day, but what I will be doing is different moment to moment. Oftentimes, I’ll find myself getting into classrooms to see what the instruction looks like. One of the things I love to do this year is I eat lunch with the students, so I’ll pop into varying grade levels and just eat with them, see what’s going on. It’s very exciting and very different from kindergarten through sixth grade, very different conversations.” Calhoun roams the building ready to assist in any way she can. “I love to be able to walk the halls, provide support for teachers in whatever they need or whatever is going on during the day,” she said. “I think a catchall for me is I open doors for learning. So if there’s a behavioral thing that’s going on that needs to be addressed, it’s my role to be able to help everyone

Where Young Men Find New Beginnings BY CAT SHANNON

said. “Students were graduating and taking off into adulthood, and my first day of school here, we had 5-year-olds stepping in for their very first day in school. It is so wonderful to see that full continuum throughout my career, to be able to see now I’m here, where students begin, and I’ve seen where they need to be at the end.” She has found her calling at East Pete. “I love the energy that elementary brings,” Calhoun said.

Within the walls of Manos House in Columbia, a new generation is finding its footing. At the nonprofit residential program for young men ages 14 to 20 with drug and alcohol histories, transformation happens every day through structure, compassion and a belief in second chances. “ We fo c u s o n a h o l i s t i c approach,” said executive director Chris Runkle. “ We ser ve their needs from the substance use side, but we also serve their educational and emotional health needs as well.” Manos House has been guiding young men through that challenge since 1972. Originally founded as a halfway house for adults transitioning out of prison, the organization shifted its focus to adolescents, offering substance use treatment, counseling and education under one roof. The education piece was especially needed, Runkle said. “Our kids are coming in highly deficient in academic credits,” he explained. “We may get an 18-year-old who has zero high school credits.” To remedy the issue, Manos House opened Prospect Grove High School, an on-site school with certified teachers and a small student-to-teacher ratio. Although the school helped with one piece of the problem, the young men needed support in another area as well. “We were seeing the young men being discharged after completing their program, but then we realized the homes they were

access learning again. If there’s maybe something that needs to be worked out with peers, how can we engage our team to be able to make sure that those students can get back to learning and being their best selves?” Prior to become principal at East Pete, Calhoun served as an assistant principal at Ephrata High School for seven years. “It’s so funny because I think about my last day of school and my previous position,” she

“I think this matches my energy really well. I just think there’s just something really special about that discovery element of learning, where everything is new, everything is out of curiosity, and how can we learn more about reading, and how can we learn more about science and math, and how to work together as peers, and how can we dive into music and art and just all these different things?” C a l ho u n’s d au g hte rs attend East Pete Elementar y.

very excited that we get to walk to school together.” Calhoun loves living near her workplace. “The other day, I was out mowing my lawn, and this group of kids comes by and says hi, and I just thought that that was really sweet,” she said. “It’s a really great symbol to show them we all do things to contribute. We all do things to work together.” She noted that this mindset is present at East Pete as well. “I don’t think there’s any task or job that anyone is above or below,” she shared. “We all contribute, and we all do what we need to do. Sometimes that means I’m going to jump in and be in a classroom and teaching for a little bit, or sometimes that means I’m going to take a student for a walk so that we can kind of talk some things through and just have a connection moment there.” O r i g i n a l l y f ro m t h e Lehigh Valley, Calhoun earned her undergraduate degree at Millersville University, where she met her now-husband, Andrew. “I

Interaction with students is one of many enjoyable aspects of Amanda Calhoun’s role as principal.

always knew I wanted to work in education, and that has led me here,” she said. “I stayed in Lancaster County, and now my family’s joining me in Lancaster County. (Andrew and I) graduated at the same time, so we were both in the job search avenue; he found a job in Lancaster County. I had been applying primarily in Lancaster, just not knowing where we would land from there. And I ended up staying in Lancaster and just really excited about it and love it. This is where we’ve found a home for our family, and it’s been great.” Calhoun’s first job out of college was at Lancaster Catholic High School, where she was a learning support teacher and worked with students with exceptionalities. “From there, I knew I

really had this passion for working with teachers, in addition to working with students,” she explained. Calhoun earned her principal degree certification from Penn State and began working as an assistant principal at Ephrata High School in 2018. She plans to remain at East Pete Elementary for a long time. “This is the dream job for me,” said Calhoun. “There’s something really, really special to me about being able to ser ve the community that I live in. W hen this opportunity came open, it was one of those things that I put a lot of thought and reflection in and decided to throw my name in and see what would happen from there. And I’m just so grateful that Hempfield landed on me to be able to do this role.”

Manos House from pg 1 going to weren’t supportive,” Runkle said. “There might be addiction in the home, or they might be going back to a peer group and social network that’s not good for their recovery efforts.” To address the issue, Manos House opened a supervised independent living program, providing inpatient residential care as the men transition out of high school. Manos House originated in downtown Lancaster, but even after one move in the city, it outgrew the space. Today, the Manos House campus spans 14 acres and includes residential housing, classrooms, therapy spaces and an independent living program. It can accommodate up to 43 young men in the program, with an additional 18 beds in independent living. Students come to Manos House from across the state and into Maryland.

Manos House residents work together to build a boat as part of a new program at the organization.

Manos House residents enjoy a hike.

Days are highly structured. Each morning begins with a 6 a.m. wake-up call, followed by breakfast in the cafeteria and high school classes until noon. After a family-style cafeteria lunch, students spend time in therapy sessions focused on their specific needs. “We are a strong proponent of not telling you what you need to do,” Runkle commented. “ We would much rather come alongside you and say, ‘You’re here. You probably don’t want to be here, but what are some things you want to work on? Can we build a treatment plan around you being successful?’” After school and on the weekends, residents may participate in activities ranging from more therapy to recreational time to play basketball or enjoy the on-site rec room. Evening programming during the week focuses on partnerships Manos House has developed with community groups. Students might participate in writing circles led by a retired Hempfield English teacher.

But every young man who walks through the doors has the same opportunity to transform his life, Runkle said. “ We’re planting seeds here,” he shared. “We’re setting them up with what they need to be successful in life, and we’re doing that alongside them. Facing addiction as a 14- to 20-year-old is difficult. Addiction at any age is difficult. But we’re telling a teenager, ‘Everything that’s ever worked for you is nearsighted and doesn’t serve you in the long run. Everything that has provided you comfort in the past, we need you to give that up.’ Naturally, they struggle with that. But every day, we work on those struggles with care and compassion.” To learn more about Manos House, visit https:// manoshouse.com.

night program. The guys also work with Lancaster Art Room, which is located on the property; complete service projects with their neighbors at St. Anne’s Retirement Community; and meet weekly with Mennonite families that come in for Bible studies, games and socializing. The young men also enjoy community outings to football games or corn mazes before lights out at 8:30 p.m. during the week. Manos House operates as a 501(c)(3), and the program relies on insurance, grants and community donations, including support from Lancaster’s ExtraGive, happening on Friday, Nov. 21. In a typical year, Manos House might see a deficit of $100,000 that’s unfunded by any of its revenue streams, but families are never billed for services. The on-site school also operates year-round but only receives state funding for a typical 180-day school year. Since students come to Manos House all year long, it’s important for them to be able to jump right into school even if they arrive in July, Runkle said. Finding funding for teachers, staff and other expenses during that time is
