In a recent government meeting, significant discussions highlighted both achievements in local athletics and updates on budgetary processes.
Coach Jody Karam of Easton was honored as the Pennsylvania Boys Wrestling Coach of the Year by the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association (PIAA). This accolade qualifies him for both sectional and National Coach of the Year honors with the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS). Karam's recognition marks the second time in three years that an Easton coach has received a statewide award, following Coach Ek's achievement in field hockey for the 2021-2022 school year. The meeting acknowledged the successful fall season for Karam and his staff, celebrating their contributions to local athletics.
On the financial front, Miss Piazza provided updates on ongoing interviews for key positions, with final interviews scheduled for the upcoming week. Additionally, she discussed the renewal quote for the Homestead Farmstead application mailing, an annual process managed by FERC 1, which ensures eligible citizens in the community receive their applications. This routine task is part of the broader budget and finance discussions that are crucial for maintaining community services.
Overall, the meeting underscored the dual focus on celebrating local achievements in sports while also addressing essential administrative and financial responsibilities.
