Elections over, Shapiro quiet on commitment to federal school choice program

(The Center Square) – Roughly 1.8 million students in Pennsylvania are potentially impacted by Gov. Josh Shapiro’s waffling over joining the federal school choice tax credit program. With elections in the rearview, its unclear when the administration will publicize its decision. The Center Square was unsuccessful in reaching the governor’s communications team on Thursday. In the meantime, a vocal coalition of program supporters sent a letter to Shapiro encouraging him to opt-in giving families access to educational support long financially out of reach. “That’s what makes this program so exciting,” said Jenny Sved, executive director of Teach PA, and one of nearly two dozen signatories from The Coalition for Educational Freedom, in a statement shared with The Center Square. “Whether it’s helping a family afford Jewish day school tuition, giving a public school student access to tutoring or SAT prep, or providing additional support for a child with special needs, this is a win for families across Pennsylvania.” The proposed program regulations from the Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service allow eligible taxpayers to claim an annual credit of up to $1,700 for qualifying contributions to scholarship-granting organizations, or up to $3,400 for married couples filing jointly.

Williamsport elementary art teacher honored with top state award

Williamsport, Pa. — The Williamsport Area School District is proud to announce that Chelsea Cramer, Cochran Primary School's primary art teacher, has been named the recipient of the 2026 Pennsylvania Art Education Association (PAEA) Outstanding Elementary Art Educator Award. Through a rigorous review process, PAEA recognized Cramer for her creative contributions, excellence in professional engagement, and dedication to service, highlighting her leadership and commitment to advancing art education across Pennsylvania. “I’m truly honored to receive this recognition from PAEA. One of the things I love most about teaching art is watching students discover what they’re capable of when they have opportunities to make creative choices and explore their own ideas. I want my students to see themselves as artists, feel confident taking creative risks, and know that their ideas matter. For me, art education is about so much more than the finished artwork — it’s about the curiosity, independence, and problem-solving that happen along the way.” Cramer also adds how important it is to work alongside other art educators that share the same passion: “I’m also fortunate to work alongside an amazing group of art educators who share ideas, encourage one another, and inspire me to keep learning and growing.
