  • 2019-2022 Comprehensive Plan
    PARKLAND SCHOOL DISTRICT District Level Plan 07/01/2019 – 06/30/2022 2 District Profile Demographics 1210 Springhouse Rd Allentown, PA 18104 (610)351-5503 Superintendent: Richard Sniscak Director of Special Education: Andrew Weber Planning Process Parkland School District has a history of educational success and strong community support of the district’s educational mission. The district’s Comprehensive Planning Process involved participation from a variety of stakeholders with the focus placed upon student achievement and continuous improvement. These various stakeholders participated in committees that included both individual school committees as well as an overarching district-wide committee. Each of the eleven schools (eight elementary schools, two middle schools and one high school) created building action plans utilizing a building-based planning team which included administrators, teachers, parents and members of the community including business partners. Each building committee reviewed relevant student performance data, demographic information and parent/community needs assessment results to identify the individual school’s strengths and challenges. A district-wide committee with a make-up of administrators, professional staff members, support staff members, parents and community members, including our business partners, reviewed data obtained from district needs assessments results from community, parent, teacher and support staff members. Following the process provided by the Comprehensive Planning Guidelines from the Pennsylvania Department of Education ensured that consistency was followed allowing for the allocation of resources and support for our district programs with a goal of continuous improvements leading to greater student achievement. The comprehensive planning process began in September 2017 as administrators brainstormed names of parents, community members and business partners who would like to be invited to attend and participate in building and district planning committees.

  • 4.3.9 Subsidence/Sinkhole
    SECTION 4.3.9: RISK ASSESSMENT – SUBSIDENCE/SINKHOLE 4.3.9 Subsidence/Sinkhole This section provides a profile and vulnerability assessment for the subsidence/sinkhole hazard. According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), “ground failure” is the term used to describe zones of ground cracking, fissuring, and localized horizontal and vertical permanent ground displacement that may be caused by surface rupture along faults; secondary movement on shallow faults; shaking-induced compaction of natural deposits in sedimentary basins and river valleys; liquefaction of loose, sandy sediment (USGS, 2005); landslides; and land subsidence and sinkholes. For the purpose of this HMP, the ground failure hazard to which the Lehigh Valley is vulnerable includes, but is not limited to, land subsidence or sinkholes, which are further defined as follows: Land subsidence can be defined as the sudden sinking or gradual downward settling of the earth’s surface with little or no horizontal motion, owing to the subsurface movement of earth materials (USGS, 2007). Subsidence often occurs through the loss of subsurface support in Karst terrain, which may result from a number of natural and human-caused occurrences. Karst is a distinctive topography in which the landscape is largely shaped by the dissolving action of water on carbonate bedrock (usually limestone, dolomite, or marble). Sinkholes, the type of subsidence most frequently seen in the Lehigh Valley, are a natural and common geologic feature in areas with underlying limestone, carbonate rock, salt beds, or other rocks that are soluble in water. Over periods of time measured in thousands of years, the carbonate bedrock can be dissolved through acidic rain water moving in fractures or cracks in the bedrock.
