In an update from a previous story, several more Schuylkill County School Districts have joined the campaign to light their stadium lights on Friday nights.
In a press release from District XI, the PIAA, and the Schuylkill League, it was announced that 29 school districts across the District will light up their stadium between the hours of 7:00pm and 9:00pm to honor the Class of 2020 and to support nurses, doctors, and first responders.
In Schuylkill County and Schuylkill League, those districts include:
- Blue Mountain
- Lehighton
- Mahanoy Area
- Minersville
- North Schuylkill
- Panther Valley
- Pine Grove
- Schuylkill Haven
- Shenandoah Valley

NOTE: North Schuylkill's event will be altered slightly and will only be lighting their lights for 20 minutes and 20 seconds.
