A great way to stay updated on East Liberty/East End news + events

Dear Highland Park Community, If you'd like to get more info about what's going on around the East End, we thought folks on the listserv might be interested in our monthly newsletter called The East Liberty Happenings, where we share neighborhood news and events, community resources, volunteer opportunities, and more. We only send out The East Liberty Happenings once a month. Besides that, you can expect an occasional email when there’s an important community meeting coming up. Here's a link to last month's newsletter <https://mailchi.mp/b364588508cf/what-we-have-planned-for-east-liberty-in-17…> to give you an idea of the content.

Hi there. Hoping your summer went well. Now we are in our first days of Fall. I wanted to share my information for now and future opportunities. My name is Michael Bisno. I am 16 and a Junior at Allderdice High School. I am looking for babysitting, yard work, watering, and help around your house in the east end area (i.e., Point Breeze, Highland Park, Shadyside, and Squirrel Hill). I play sports, have a 4.0 GPA, and do charity work. Please message me at 412-789-3118 and feel free to pass this information along to others who may need these (and other) services. I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you. Michael Bisno 412-789-3118

PPS plan feedback sessions on school closures THIS WEEK
by Highland Park Community Council 03 Sep '24

03 Sep '24

HPCC has been trying to keep up with the fast pace of PPS’ Facilities Utilization Plan <https://www.pghschools.org/about/superintendent-of-schools/facilities-utili…> process, which has primarily taken place over the summer months. On August 13, the school board-hired consulting team unveiled a proposal <https://nextpittsburgh.com/education/what-9-pittsburgh-public-school-buildi…> to revamp the district from top to bottom, including building closures. Fulton PreK-5, in the heart of our neighborhood on Hampton Street, is on the list of potential building closures, but nothing is final. Many community members and education advocates have significant concerns about the initial proposal, including not seriously considering equity issues, transportation problems, or keeping high-performing programs intact. The district also made the controversial decision to stop allowing constituents to testify at public hearings virtually <https://www.wesa.fm/education/2024-08-28/pittsburgh-public-schools-closures…>, which has been an option since early 2020. The District is hosting three regional feedback sessions this week, as well as a virtual session next week, and we want to encourage everyone to attend in person or participate virtually (we are also working with District 2 Board Member Devon Taliaferro and Pittsburgh Fulton PTA <https://www.facebook.com/ppsfultonpto> to have a local feedback session, but nothing is finalized; we'll post more info when/if we get a date and time locked in). The locations of the only meetings currently scheduled are: - *Tuesday, September 3, 2024, 6-8 PM*: Pittsburgh Allderdice High School 2409 Shady Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15217 - *Wednesday, September 4, 2024 6-8 PM: *Pittsburgh Carrick High School 125 Parkfield St, Pittsburgh, PA 15210 - *Thursday, September 5, 2024 6-8 PM:* Pittsburgh Arsenal 6-8 220 40th St, Pittsburgh, PA 15201 - *Wednesday, September 11, at 6:00 PM *- Register for the session here <https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Pp7_uRp_TayUrTVMehgsKw#/registration> . Look at the ‘Upcoming Community Engagement’ tab on the Facilities Utilization page <https://www.pghschools.org/about/superintendent-of-schools/facilities-utili…> for more details on these meetings. It’s our understanding that the board may vote on this plan before the end of September, which would open up another round of public comment. We encourage everyone in our community, regardless of whether you or your family have or had children at Fulton, to pay attention to this process and consider how losing a well-regarded, high-performing school would impact our neighborhood. Please make your voices heard! -- Click here to visit our website <https://hpccpgh.org/>
