Mahanoy City (pronounced MA-ha-noy) is a borough located north by west of Reading and 13 miles southwest of Hazleton, in northern Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania or the southern Coal Region. The name "Mahanoy" is believed to be a variation of the Native American word 'Maghonioy', or "the salt deposits". Mahanoy Area School District is also found within this borough and includes an elementary, middle school, and high school complex for students. The mascot is a golden bear and school colors are black and gold.
