    On January 13, Chester High School launched the 'Second Chance Breakfast' program with the help of state grant funding, using a newly purchased Rapid Cook Ventless Oven: Mobile Oven Cart to provide students with access to a nutritious meal through a mobile breakfast cart.

     

     

     

    CHESTER, PA - January 30, 2025 - The Chester Upland School District (CUSD) is excited to announce the launch of the 'Second Chance Breakfast' initiative at Chester High School (CHS), aimed at ensuring all students have access to a nutritious start to their day, even if they arrive late.

     

    This start of this initiative at CHS was made possible thanks to the Pennsylvania School Breakfast Expansion (SBE) grant funding. In November 2024, the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) announced that CHS was one of 164 schools awarded $1.2 million in Pennsylvania SBE grant funding to improve the nutritional quality of school breakfast meals and increase student participation in the federal School Breakfast Program.

    The 'Second Chance Breakfast' program at CHS began on January 13 and has been serving an average of 25 students daily, with peak participation reaching 45 students. Students are able to pick up breakfast between 1st and 2nd period or during a mid-morning break. The menu features in-house made breakfast sandwiches, fresh fruit, cereal bowls, parfaits, muffins, along with milk and juice options.

    Chartwells, CUSD’s food services vendor, manages the breakfast cart stationed on the third floor, the main entry point for late-arriving students.

    “We are incredibly grateful to the Pennsylvania Department of Education for this important investment in our students,” said Dr. Latrice Mumin, Superintendent of Schools.  “Ensuring that every child has access to a nutritious meal, regardless of when they arrive at school, is a priority for our district. CUSD believes that educating our scholars comes from a holistic approach and the 'Second Chance Breakfast' initiative is a step forward in supporting student success in that. We appreciate the state’s commitment to making this possible.”

    "This initiative is a game-changer for our students,” said LaMonte Popley, Chester High School’s Principal.  It ensures that those who may have missed breakfast at home still have access to a healthy meal, helping them stay focused and ready to learn. We’ve already seen strong participation, and I know this program will continue to benefit our students in meaningful ways."

    With this funding, the district was able to purchase a Rapid Cook Ventless Oven: Mobile Oven Cart, which allows cafeteria staff to serve food outside of the traditional cafeteria setting. Additionally, grant funds were used to create promotional marketing materials to educate the community about this expanded breakfast option.

    Additional Information

    The Pennsylvania School Breakfast Expansion Program is a state initiative designed to increase access to nutritious morning meals for students. By providing grants and support, the program encourages schools to implement alternative breakfast service methods, such as 'Second Chance Breakfast,' to ensure that all students have the opportunity to start their day with a healthy meal. This initiative aims to improve student health, academic performance, and overall well-being.

  • Main Street Elementary Hosts Annual ‘Walk for a Cure’ in Support of Breast Cancer Awareness

    Posted by Chester Upland School District on 10/31/2024

    Main Street Breast cancerUPLAND, PA- October 30, 2024 - Main Street Elementary School held its annual ‘Walk for a Cure’ event on October 25, bringing together students and staff to show their support for breast cancer awareness and those affected by the disease.

    Students and staff proudly walked along the school grounds in Upland, holding signs of encouragement to provide hope and support to those battling breast cancer. The walk ended with everyone forming a human ribbon in front of the school, symbolizing the iconic pink ribbon associated with breast cancer awareness.

    During the event, the school announced that this year’s donation of $1,100 will be presented to Aimee Guzowski, a local Pre-K 3 teacher at SonShine Christian School who has recently completed her final chemotherapy treatment. This donation was made possible through proceeds from a month-long lollipop fundraiser, contributions from a special pink dress-down day, and additional donations from staff and students.

    "Seeing our students and staff come together for this cause is incredibly moving," said Darnell Medley, Main Street’s Principal. "The children look forward to this event every year, and it’s a wonderful display of solidarity in supporting breast cancer awareness. It's a testament to the strength of our school and district communities."

    The "Walk for a Cure" event has become a highly-anticipated tradition at Main Street, focusing on awareness, community support, unity, and fostering a spirit of compassion.

    Connie Sierra, a third-grade teacher at Main Street who worked with the school and district to organize the event, was inspired to start “Walk for a Cure” after losing her sister to breast cancer at age 54. "I wanted to keep her memory alive and give back to those who are still fighting," Sierra said. "Whatever is needed, Main Street has made every effort to ensure these women receive support during their time of need."

    This is the seventh year Main Street has hosted its ‘Walk for a Cure’ event. To date, the school has supported seven women struggling with breast cancer, offering assistance in various ways, including cash donations, gift cards, and even covering a month of grocery shopping to help make life a little easier.

    Main Street staff will visit Aimee Guzowski at the SonShine Christian School on Tuesday, November 5, to present the donation check.

    CUSD is proud that 10 percent of its student body identifies as Latinx, with ties to Puerto Rico, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, and other South American countries. The district remains committed to celebrating and representing the diversity of its students.

    “Our celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month was a reminder of the strength in diversity and the impact of collaboration across our district," said Dr. Latrice N. Mumin, Superintendent of Schools.

  • Chester Upland School District Launches BusPatrol Safety Program to Protect Students at Bus Stops

    Posted by Chester Upland School District on 12/15/2023

    Chester Upland School District Launches BusPatrol Safety Program to Protect Students at Bus Stops

    All district buses will be modernized with photo enforcement technology to tackle illegal passings.

     


    school bus camera being installed on a yellow school busCHESTER, PA - December 15, 2023 - Children who ride to school on the bus can expect a safer, smarter commute thanks to a new safety initiative in the city of Chester. The Chester Upland School District (CUSD) has partnered with local law enforcement and BusPatrol to tackle the illegal passing of stopped school buses.

     

    As part of the safety initiative, the entire fleet of CUSD buses will be outfitted with automated enforcement technology to detect the license plates of vehicles that fail to stop for school buses, putting children at risk. The video evidence is shared with local law enforcement for review before a citation is issued.

     

    The program is expected to go live in February 2024, following an education and public awareness campaign. The campaign seeks to educate motorists and learner drivers about school bus safety laws and teach school children how to get on and off the bus as safely as possible. This education will be ongoing once the program is live.

     

    “I am excited that CUSD will soon launch the BusPatrol Safety Program to protect our students at bus stops," said Interim Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Latrice M. Mumin. "During community meetings, I and other CUSD administrators heard from dozens of concerned parents and citizens regarding safety concerns for our students who ride public transportation. With that in mind, and focusing on our commitment to protecting our students, we have partnered with BusPatrol and are moving forward with implementing the program.”

     

    Last October, Pennsylvania authorities reported more than 250 stop-arm violations in one day during Operation Safe Stop. In 2020, Allentown School District captured over 200 illegal passings on just two school buses over a 47-day stop-arm study. This is equal to 2.18 violations per bus per day.

     

    Kate Spree, a spokesperson for BusPatrol, said that the safety initiative is proven to make roads safer: "Every day, thousands of cars ignore school bus stop-arms and speed past school buses as children are stepping on and off. Sadly, this dangerous motorist behavior is only getting worse. Our safety programs combine education and enforcement to change driver behavior and ensure that all motorists know when to stop for the big yellow bus. In some communities, our programs have reduced the rate of illegal passing by up to 30% YoY." 

     

    In addition to stop-arm cameras, CUSD will equip its buses with safety features at no cost to the district or taxpayers. The technology, installation, and maintenance are funded by violation revenue over a 5-year term.

      

    As stated by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, motorists must stop at least 10 feet away from school buses with red lights flashing and stop-arm extended. The penalty for a first-time violation is $300.
