This alternative learning facility serves approximately 105 students in the Easton Area School District, grades 6-12. Students attending the Easton Area Academy are referred from Easton Area Middle School and Easton Area High School. The reasons for referral stem from the key areas of truancy concerns and/or need for behavior modification. In addition to being an AEDY program, Easton Area Academy serves students at risk for dropping out and in need of additional supports to be successful. Easton Area Academy operates on the belief that every child deserves an individualized education in order to best meet his or her needs. Easton Area Academy offers a structured learning environment through the use of alternative methods and technology to achieve success capitalizing on each student’s individuality. Students are provided with a progressive academic and behavioral curriculum that is presented with the opportunity for academic, social, and emotional growth. Each student is empowered to fulfill their educational potential with the academic and social skills to be responsible to themselves and the community. Easton Area School District partners with Communities In Schools of the Lehigh Valley in order to best serve its students at Easton Area Academy. Communities In Schools of the Lehigh Valley helps students prepare for life by drawing on the extraordinary strengths of their community. As a state-licensed provider of alternative education programs, Communities In Schools assists in giving students the support they need to achieve success in school. Through CIS, young people are inspired to believe in themselves, envision a meaningful future, and become self-sufficient, responsible members of the community, which remains consistent with the mission of Easton Area Academy. The administration, faculty, and staff at Easton Area Academy work collaboratively to support and address the complex needs of the students at the Easton Area Academy. Many programs are in place to assist students and families. Such programs include school-wide positive behavior support, individual and group counseling for each student, consumer education/group dynamics, and school to career. In order to address the needs and programs aimed at behavior modification, Easton Area Academy receives its program approval for Alternative Education for Disruptive Youth from the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Over the first five years in operation, there continues to be a significant increase in student attendance rates, academic achievement, and student motivation; therefore ensuring lasting success and accomplishments for the students at Easton Area Academy. 3 Positive Behavior Reward System Students also have the ability to earn privileges as part of the EAA Level System. Students receive daily point sheets, which help them, focus on an academic and a behavioral goal on a regular basis. Students are given lanyards. Each color lanyard allows certain privileges. The lanyard colors from least to greatest privileges are red, grey, orange and green.

The Enforcement Bureau (Bureau) of the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) has entered into a Consent Decree to resolve its investigation into whether Radio License Holding CBC, LLC (Radio License), and Radio License’s parent, Cumulus Radio Corporation (CRC), broadcast announcements on radio station WOKQ(FM), Dover, New Hampshire (Station), without adequate sponsorship disclosure in violation of the Commission’s sponsorship identification laws. 2. The Commission’s sponsorship identification laws protect consumers and promote fair competition by requiring that the sponsors of paid programming material be clearly identified. Those laws are based on the principle that listeners and viewers are entitled to know who seeks to persuade them. The disclosures required by those laws provide listeners and viewers with information concerning the source of material in order to prevent misleading or deceiving those listeners and viewers. Enforcement of the sponsorship identification laws also protects fair competition among advertisers. We seek to prevent sponsors from gaining unfair advantage by paying stations to present promotional messages without appropriate disclosures, while their competitors observe the rules and present their content as properly acknowledged commercial advertisements. 3. The Bureau investigated a complaint that the Station broadcast announcements supporting a hydro-electronic energy project in New Hampshire without disclosing the identity of the company that sponsored the announcements.
