Governor Mifflin High School teachers and students appeared on Season 5, Episode 24 of The ClassH-Room game show, which airs on Fox29-Philadelphia. Students Rachel, Gianna, and Jacob faced off against their favorite teachers—Mr. Kurtz, Mr. Maurer, and Mr. McGovern—in a test of knowledge, with the teachers coming out on top. Thanks to the winners for donating their $500 prize to The John Updike Childhood Home. After Mr. Kurtz and his local history class toured the house on May 19, 2025, a check was accepted on behalf of the John Updike Society by Charlie Lester. Updike graduated from the high school in 1950 when it was called Shillington High School, which he could see (and visitors can still see) from his bedroom window. Thanks GMHS teachers!
