Central Dauphin School District was created in 1954, and this merger of several school districts was completed by the opening of Central Dauphin High School. In the late 1990s, overcrowding in the Central Dauphin School District resulted in a proposal to merge Central Dauphin East High School with nearby rival Central Dauphin High School. The proposal was opposed by Central Dauphin East High School and was later voted down by the school board (after its removal in the election the week before). In 2000, the school board voted to build a third high school, but in a sudden turnaround by the school board, it was decided that the district would have only two high schools. Since 1961, the yearbook has been called the Oriens.〔("ORIENS yearbook" )〕 The school newspaper is called the Panther Print.〔("Panther Print" )〕 ;Federal School Improvement grant: In 2010, the Central Dauphin School District applied for and was awarded a $2,099,888 grant, by the state and federal government.
