				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The 96th Penn Manor Alumni Banquet was held on Saturday, April 16th in the Penn Manor High School cafeteria.

He is a gifted metal sculptor and has been very involved on numerous community boards in the Lancaster area such as Rotary, United Way, YMCA and Lancaster County Art Association. A scholarship received from the Penn Manor Alumni Association made college possible for him.</p>
<p><strong>Dr. Joseph E. McSparran</strong> graduated from Penn Manor High School in 1961. He went on to graduate from West Chester University with a B.S. in Secondary English, earned his Master’s in Educational Administartion from Fairfield University in Connecticut in 1970 and his Ed.D. in Educational Leadership from the University of Pennsylvania in 1983.

From 1996 until the present time, Dr. McSparran has been employed as a professor at Kutztown University. He is a published author. His most recent endeavor is a brochure, “The Other Freshmen Fifteen: Surviving First Semester” for first year college students to help them navigate the critical transition to life on a college campus. In 2010, Dr. McSparran gave the commencement address for Kutztown University.</p>
<p><strong>Dr. Dean R. Hess</strong> graduated from Penn Manor High School in 1968. He graduated from Messiah College in 1972, earned his Master’s degree from Millersville University in 1980 and his Ph.D. from LaSalle University in 1994.

He has been the Editor-in-Chief of Respiratory Care, the official science journal of the American Association for Respiratory Care since 2008.
