  • 31 High Schools Named a Pngas Guard-Friendly High School
    Pennsylvania National Guard Associations Building 9-109 Biddle Hall Fort Indiantown Gap Annville, PA 17003-5002 www.PNGAS.org For Immediate Release 31 HIGH SCHOOLS NAMED A PNGAS GUARD-FRIENDLY HIGH SCHOOL The Pennsylvania National Guard Associations (PNGAS) is a non-profit organization whose sole mission is supporting the men, women and veterans of the National Guard, their spouses, and families (Fort Indiantown Gap - Annville, PA) – December 21, 2020 –The Pennsylvania National Guard Associations (PNGAS) is pleased to announce 31 High Schools have earned the designation PNGAS Guard Friendly High School. The designation and standards were developed by the PNGAS Education Advisory Council to amplify high school best practices for recruiting, information- sharing, and group-formation in high schools for their support of the Pennsylvania National Guard. The PNGAS Education Action Council is chaired by Brigadier General George Schwartz (Ret.). Through his leadership, volunteers from some of the state’s leading colleges and universities voluntarily review applications, guidelines, best practices, and improvement criteria. For many years, the Education Assistance Program (“EAP”) has been the number #1 recruiting tool for the Pennsylvania National Guard. Since its inception, Pennsylvania has distributed more than $300 million through the EAP so Guard members can get college, university, and trade school degrees. The EAP provides a tuition benefit equivalent to the yearly tuition rate set by the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE) so that members of the Pennsylvania National Guard can attend one of 488 Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) approved schools. Presently, the EAP is an almost $32,000 tuition benefit for each Guard member.
