Monroe County residents expecting a new bridge for Christmas are saying bah-humbug. The Glenbrook Road Bridge in Stroud Township was expected to reopen at the end of this month after being closed for over four years. But we’re told the contractor has once again run into some problems. To nearby residents dismay, the design has to be reconfigured again. There’s lots of activity today at the bridge project on Glenbrook Road in Stroud Township. But recently PennDOT confirms the contractor halted work as they were back to the drawing board. PennDOT District 5 Press Officer Ron Young says, "Had some issues with the cofferdam system. They had to redesign it so we had a bit of another setback. We’re hoping in the springtime is when things will get done."

The General Meeting on 1/9/25 is canceled due to lack of business.

Imagine this: a student is involved in community/extracurricular activities, and goes on several college visits. Then, he/she gets sick and is absent for three days. Now, the Sapphire Student Portal reports that the student has accumulated seven absences by the end of the first quarter.   So, what counts as one of the 10 excusable absences?  According to the student handbook, “Students will not be excused from school except in cases of emergency or with a written note from their parent/guardian with the reason for their absence and within 3 days of the absence.” Absence notes must include the student’s name, ID number, date, days of absence, reason of absence, and the parent or guardian’s signature.
