    All schools in the Deep Run Valley School District were consolidated with the schools in the     Pennridge Joint School District to form what is now known as the Pennridge School District. 
                                                                                                        
     
    In 1970, six more classrooms in an open space format, a large music room, a separate art room, and an expanded kitchen were added to complete the school's look as a T-shaped ranch-style building.
     
    In honor of the former Principal, who served as the school's administrator from 1964 until his sudden death in 1976, the school was rededicated and renamed Robert B. Deibler Elementary School in October 1976

    The most recent renovations to the school began in March of 2000 and were finished in September of 2001. Every classroom was totally renovated, with new floor tiles, ceiling tiles, lights, windows, and classroom doors installed. 
      
    Our vocal music room, health suite, and faculty room were also redesigned and renovated.
                 
     
                                                                                                   
    New additions to our facility included a full-size gymnasium and library, a computer lab, an instrumental music room, and new offices for Instructional Support, Guidance, and Speech/Language.
     
    New teaching areas were built for our Learning Support program, Reading program, and Gifted Support program.
     
    The Administrative office suite was expanded and the kitchen area was completely redesigned and furnished with all new equipment. The school was provided additional parking as well as two student drop off and pick up loops to improve traffic flow.
