  • Founder Testimonial – SCS History and Need
    Appendix X. Founder Testimonial: SCS History and Need Jennifer Olson 813 Bangor Mountain Rd. Stroudsburg, PA 18360 November 8, 2020 Summit Charter School Application - Founder Letter More about How and Why Summit School Started To Whom It May Concern: I write this letter to accompany the Summit Charter School Charter Application, not only as a letter of support, but also as a way to provide context. I am the original founding member of Summit School of the Poconos, the private school whose model the Summit Charter School is based on. I serve as the Board President of the Summit School of the Poconos and plan to serve as the Board President of the Summit Charter School. The Charter School Application asks about the founding coalition and asks for a representation of need. While facts and data can be included there, that information alone lacks a depth of something more meaningful and personal. I shared much of what I will write here with the Pocono Mountain School District during the hearing for the first charter application submitted by the school in November 2019. While this is written in part as a reaffirmation and reminder of my original words to the District, it is also written with the unfortunate knowledge that the ultimate audience of this letter will likely be the Pennsylvania Charter School Appeal Board. Since Summit’s announcement that the School was applying for a charter, many people have asked why? How is it that a student could benefit from a school that has less to offer - less ​ ​ ​ ​ students, less teachers, less extracurricular options than Pocono Mountain does? Why we’re ​ ​ doing this seems to be just as important as what we’re doing, so I’d like to try to explain that a ​ ​ little.

Box 274 • East Stroudsburg, PA 18301 • (570) 269-7580 • (570) 460-5156 www.perrymankeglovits.org Remembering Arthur Perryman and Al Keglovits The Perryman Keglovits Foundation 2018 All-Star Games In 2003, an All Star Basketball Game was born in memory of both Al Keglovits and Arthur Perryman. It’s hard to believe that it is already the games’ sixteenth year! With the help of so many people over the past sixteen years this local boys and girls senior showcase has grown into a memorable community affair. This night is not just a basketball game for our senior All-Stars but also a night to remember all those in the community who have lost their battle with cancer and to encourage those who continue their fight. Cancer is the number one leading cause of death in Monroe County. The vision of this All-Star game was not only to give our senior All-Stars one last chance to play in front of their families and friends, but also to honor two Monroe County Basketball Legends who lost their lives to cancer. Proceeds from the event support both the “Dale and Frances Hughes Cancer Center” and the Jimmy V Foundation. The community can truly be proud of the support they provide to these worthy causes.
