The district operates two high schools (grades 9-12). Most students from Cumberland County attend Cedar Cliff High School and most of the York County students attend Red Land High School.

The district has combined the two high school marching bands, not for the competitive season, but rather for a trip. A trip halfway around the world.... to China! This band practices on most Monday nights, and on Saturadays now as well. A small sample of their music is: Jasmine, March America, Olympic Spirit, Fanfare for the Common Man, Cadillac of the Skies, and God Bless America.
