COMMUNITIES IN SCHOOLS OF PENNSYLVANIA EXPANDS PROGRAMMING TO BLOOMSBURG AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT 

Good afternoon, Panther families.

A new program called Summer EBT, or “SUN Bucks” has been authorized by a bipartisan U.S. Congress to provide food dollars to low-income families with school-aged children over the summer months. 

The program is proven to reduce food insecurity and improve children's nutrition during summer break. Governor Shapiro’s administration announced that the Commonwealth would participate in this program
beginning in the summer of 2025.  The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) oversees the program, and the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (DHS) coordinates the benefit issuance in Pennsylvania.

Explore more information and see if you’re eligible.

Thank you, and have a great day!

On May 14, Bloomsburg Area School District Superintendent, Mr. JJ Cleaver, had the distinct honor of serving as the keynote speaker at the Commonwealth University Induction to the Teacher Profession Ceremony held at Kehr Union Ballroom on the Bloomsburg campus.

Mr. Cleaver delivered an inspiring message about the profound impact that future educators will have on shaping the lives of generations to come. His words served as both a celebration of the dedication these future teachers have shown and a reminder of the responsibility and privilege of guiding young minds.

Congratulations to all inductees as you begin your journey in this noble profession!
