Excitedly kicked off the PA Civics Forum at Intermediate Unit 1 in Coal Center, PA with the theme of "Cultivating Curious Minds, Critical Thinkers, and Engaged Citizens".
The Sheriff’s Office’s continued failures are completely unacceptable.
We are grateful to the court and Common Pleas Judge Paula Patrick. We look forward to seeing how the Courts and City Council hold the Sheriff’s Office accountable for this latest development.
