Remediation Time

If a student in grades 6-12 stays after the 2:25 dismissal for Remediation Time or Block 5 (2:25-3:00),

District provided transportation will be available by 3 buses leaving the school at 4:00. The routes of these buses are as follows – (Bus numbers may change)

Bus # 3 Will go East of Main St (Rt 412 rural)

Bus # 22 Will go West of Main St (Rt 412 rural)

Bus #14 Will do all Borough of Hellertown stops and also Steel City

Students will still need to secure a “pass” from the teacher that they stayed with during Remediation Time or Block 5 (2:25-3:00), to present one copy to the supervising monitor and the other to the 4:00 bus driver (this is the current procedure).

Students may call home using their personal phone or the Main Office phones to secure personal transportation should they wish to not wait until 4:00.

All Middle School students will be supervised by para educators from 3:00-4:00 at the Middle School in designated locations. During this time, children will have the opportunity to complete school assignments, read, etc.

A reminder that these 4:00 buses are used for students staying for academic assistance, not for those that participated in Clubs, Athletics, Intramural events, etc.

SafeSchoolsSafety is one of our district’s top priorities and to help safeguard our school community, we’ve taken an important step! Beginning Monday, May 8th the SVSD community can begin using SafeSchools Alert, a tip reporting service that allows students, staff, and parents to submit safety concerns to our administration four different ways:

1. Phone: 484-626-5254 2. Text your tip to 484-626-5254 3. Email: [email protected] 4. Web: http://1520.alert1.us

You and your child can easily report tips on bullying, harassment, drugs, vandalism or any safety issue you're concerned about through SafeSchools Alert. Every tip SafeSchools Alert receives about our district is immediately logged in the system and our administration is notified so that they can investigate and take appropriate action. Tips may also be submitted anonymously if you prefer. In addition to safety issues, the system also allows you to submit Kudos to recognize someone for a job well done! Together, using SafeSchools Alert, we can make our district a safer place to work and learn!

class of senior citizens, widows, widowers and disabled persons who are real property

taxpayers and who are without adequate means of support to enable them to remain in

peaceable possession of their homes and relieving their economic burden.

3. Real Estate Tax Reduction Calculation:

The school board has decided that the homestead exclusion amount and the farmstead exclusion amount shall be equal. Dividing the paragraph 1(c) aggregate amount available during the school year for real estate tax reduction of $946,647.64 by the paragraph 2(c) aggregate number of approved homesteads and approved farmsteads of 4,883, the maximum real estate tax reduction amount applicable to each approved homestead and to each approved farmstead is $194.04.

4. Homestead Exclusion Calculation: Dividing the paragraph 3 maximum real estate tax reduction amount of

$194.04 by the School District real estate tax rate of 53.03 mills (.05303), the maximum real estate assessed value reduction to be reflected on tax notices as a homestead exclusion for each approved homestead is $3,659.00, and the maximum real estate assessed value reduction to be reflected on tax notices as a farmstead exclusion for each approved farmstead is $3,659.00.

5. Homestead/Farmstead Exclusion Authorization – July 1 Tax Bills:

The tax notice issued to the owner of each approved homestead within the School District shall reflect a homestead exclusion real estate assessed value reduction equal to the lesser of: (a) the County- established assessed value of the homestead, or (b) the paragraph 4 maximum real estate assessed value reduction of $3,659.00. The tax notice issued to the owner of each approved farmstead within the School District shall reflect an additional farmstead exclusion real estate assessed value reduction equal to the lesser of: (a) the County- established assessed value of the farmstead, or (b) the paragraph 4 maximum real estate assessed value reduction of $3,659.00. For purposes of this Resolution, “approved homestead” and “approved farmstead” shall mean homesteads and farmsteads listed in the report referred to in paragraph 2 above and received by the School District from the County Assessment Office on or before May 1 pursuant to Act 1, 53 P.S. § 6926.341(g)(3), based on homestead/farmstead applications filed with the County Assessment Office on or before March 1.

Such Issue Price and Yield will be stated in the Form 8038-G or 8038-GC, as applicable.

*The final Lease Payment amount will be amended to reflect the final funding amount paid by Lessor to Supplier (and, if applicable, any applicable upfront sales, use or similar taxes paid by Lessor at the time of sale) if such amount is different than the Total Cost to Lessor’s Assignee set forth above. If the Lease Payment amount changes, the Lease Payment Schedule will be deemed to have been amended to reflect the correct Lease payment amount. Unless a proper exemption certificate is provided, in states assessing upfront sales, use or similar tax, your Lease Payment, starting with the first invoice, will be adjusted to include reimbursement for the amount of upfront tax we paid the state, amortized over the term of the Lease using a rate that preserves our economic yield for the transaction. In other states, any applicable sales tax and use tax will be included on your invoice.

1. LEASE CHARGES. This Lease commences upon (a) your fulfillment of all conditions precedent as determined by us, (b) delivery of the Equipment to you (either all or a portion, pursuant to Section 2), and (c) your execution and delivery to us of a Certificate of Acceptance. You agree to send the Lease Payments and all other sums when due and payable to the address we provide you. Lease Payments are due whether or not you are invoiced. Lease Payments are due in advance as set forth above. You shall pay to us a charge on any Lease Payment not paid on the date such payment is due at the rate of 12% per annum or the highest lawful rate, whichever is less, from such due date until paid (“Default Interest Rate”). YOU HAVE SELECTED THE EQUIPMENT. THE SUPPLIER AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES ARE NOT OUR AGENTS AND ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO MODIFY THE TERMS OF THIS LEASE. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES TO YOU, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SUITABILITY, OR OTHERWISE . WE PROVIDE THE EQUIPMENT TO YOU AS-IS. OTHER THAN A NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2, YOUR PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS ARE ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL AND ARE NOT SUBJECT TO CANCELLATION, REDUCTION OR SET-OFF FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, EQUIPMENT FAILURE, LOSS OR DAMAGE. We may apply all your payments under this Lease in any order and manner selected by us. You waive all rights to direct the application of any payments made by you to us. We may offset and deduct any of your liabilities or obligations to us from any or all sums owed by us to you. You and we understand and intend that your obligation to pay Lease Payments under this Lease shall constitute a current and shall not in any way be construed to be a debt in contravention of any applicable constitutional or statutory limitation or requirement concerning the creation of indebtedness or debt by you, nor shall anything contained in this Lease constitute a p ledge of your general tax revenues, funds or monies. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, you agree to accept partial shipment of the Equipment. Upon delivery of a partial shipment, you agree to sign the Certificate of Acceptance and commence this Lease based on the Equipment that has been delivered to you. Your Lease Payment will start lower than what is reflected in the Lease Payment Schedule, adjusted in proportion to the partial shipment. When the remainder of the Equipment is delivered, we will further adjust your Lease Payment according to amount of Equipment finally delivered. 2. NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. You are obligated to pay Lease Payments under the Lease for each fiscal period as may lawfully be made from funds budgeted and appropriated for that purpose for such fiscal period. You currently intend to remit and reasonably believe that funds in an amount sufficient to remit all Lease Payments and other payments under the Lease can and will lawfully be appropriated and made available to permit your continued utilization of the Equipment under the Lease and the performance of its essential function during the scheduled term of the Lease as reflected in the Lease Payment Schedule (the “Lease Term”). You currently intend to do all things lawfully within your power to obtain and maintain funds from which the Lease Payments under the Lease may be made, including making provision for such payments to the extent necessary in each budget or appropriation request adopted in accordance with applicable provisions of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we acknowledge that the decision whether or not to budget and appropriate funds or to extend the term of the Lease for any period beyond the original or any additional fiscal period is within the discretion of your governing body. In the event that your governing body fails or is unwilling to budget, appropriate or otherwise make available funds for the payment of Lease Payments and other payments, if any, under this Lease following the then current fiscal period (an “Event of Non-appropriation”), you shall have the right to terminate this Lease on the last day of the fiscal period for which sufficient appropriations were made without penalty or expense, except as to the portion of any Lease Payment for which funds shall have been appropriated and budgeted, in which event you shall return the Equipment subject to this Lease in accordance with the return provisions set forth herein. You agree to deliver notice to us of such Event of Non-appropriation and termination at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then current fiscal period, but failure to give such notice shall not extend the term of this Lease beyond such then current fiscal period. 3. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES OFYOURS IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE EQUIPMENT, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABLITY OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE STATE LAW YOU AGREE TO DEFEND AND INDEMNIFY US FOR ALL LOSSES, DAMAGES, CLAIMS, INJURIES AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS (“Claims”) WHETHER BASED ON A THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, INCURRED, CAUSED OR ASSERTED BY ANY PERSON, IN ANY MANNER RELATING TO THE EQUIPMENT. This indemnity survives termination of this Lease. 5. TAXES/OWNERSHIP. You agree to pay or reimburse us for all sales, use, rental, property, excise and gross receipts taxes and other taxes and charges incurred in connection with this Lease or the purchase, ownership or use of the Equipment. You will file all required property tax returns, promptly pay all property taxes assessed against the Equipment, and provide us with proof of payment upon request. In the event we are required by a taxing jurisdiction to file for and/or pay property taxes, you shall reimburse us for any property tax payments made by us. You will be the owner of the Equipment immediately upon delivery for federal tax purposes and if allowed by law, all other purposes, and you grant to us a security interest in the Equipment and all products and proceeds thereof to secure all of your obligations under this Lease. You agree to follow any notification from us regarding any changes in property tax reporting and payment responsibilities. 6. INSURANCE; LOSS; DAMAGE. You assume all risks of loss, theft, damage to or destruction of the Equipment. If any item of Equipment is lost, stolen or damaged you will immediately notify us in writing and, at your option and cost, within 30 days after such event, either: (a) promptly repair or replace the item to our satisfaction; or (b) pay us the sum of: (i) all past due and current Lease Payments; and (ii) the present value (discounted at the rate of interest applicable to this Lease, or if such rate is not permitted by applicable law, then at the lowest permitted rate) of (A) all remaining Lease Payments for the effected item(s) of Equipment; and (iii) all other amounts due hereunder (together, the “Stipulated Loss Value”). Insurance proceeds will be applied toward repair, replacement or payment owing to us, as applicable. You agree, at your cost, to: (a) keep the Equipment insured against all risks of physical loss or damage for the higher of Stipulated Loss Value or its full replacement value, naming us as loss payee; and (b) maintain Commercial General Liability insurance, covering personal injury and property damage in amount acceptable to us, naming us as additional insured. The policy must be issued by an insurance carrier acceptable to us, must provide us with not less than 15 days’ prior written notice of cancellation, non-renewal or amendment, and must provide deductible amounts acceptable to us. With our prior written consent, you may self-insure against such risks. 7. DEFAULT; REMEDIES. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. You will be in default hereunder if: (a) you fail to remit to us any payment within ten days of the due date; (b) you breach any other obligation under this Lease or any other agreement with us and fail to correct such violation within thirty days following written notice; or (c) you provide a false or misleading representation. If you default, we may do one or more of the following: (a) recover from you, AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BENEFIT OF THE BARGAIN AND NOT AS A PENALTY, the Stipulated Loss Value; (b) declare any other agreements between us in default; (c) require you to return all of the Equipment in the manner outlined hereunder; (d) repossess the Equipment, and you waive any claims against us for damages, for trespass or for any other reason; (e) lease or sell the Equipment; (f) charge you the Default Interest Rate; (g) charge you for expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of our remedies; and (h) cancel or terminate this Lease. These remedies are cumulative, are in addition to any other remedies provided for by law, and may be exercised concurrently or separately. Any failure or delay by us to exercise any right will not operate as a waiver of any other right. 8. PREPAYMENT. Unless you are in default under this Lease, you have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, all of your obligations under this Lease (the "Prepayment") prior to the end of the scheduled Term; provided, however, that any Prepayment that is not paid on a scheduled payment due date shall be deemed to have been made and shal l be effective as of the next scheduled due date (the "Effective Prepayment Date"). Any such Prepayment shall be made in the amount of the then corresponding "Prepayment Amount". The Prepayment Amount shall be an amount equal to: (a) all Lease Payments and all other sums due but unpaid under this Lease as of the time of the Effective Prepayment Date, plus (b) the present value of all Lease Payments to become due during the remainder of the Term (discounted to present value at the rate of interest applicable to this Lease, or if such rate is not permitted by applicable law, then at the lowest permitted rate), plus (c) the corresponding "Prepayment Fee". The Prepayment Fee shall equal one percent the amount described in clause (b) of this Section for each full twelve month period remaining in the Term as of the Effective Payment Date (unless we choose, at our discretion, to charge a lesser amount). You and we agree that the Prepayment Fee is a reasonable estimate of the actual or anticipated harm we would sustain if you prepay the Lease. 9. RETURN OF EQUIPMENT. In the case of a default under this Lease or an Event of Non-appropriation, you will, at your sole cost and expense, immediately return the Equipment (including all copies of any software), manuals, and accessories to any location and aboard any carrier we may designate in the continental United States. You must securely remove all proprietary data from any and all software, disk drives or magnetic media prior to returning the Equipment. The Equipment must be properly packed for shipment in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications, freight prepaid and insured, and maintained in accordance with the terms of this Lease. All Equipment must be free of markings. You will pay us for any missing or defective parts or accessories. You will continue to pay Lease Payments until the Equipment is accepted by us, which acceptance shall be deemed to occur fifteen (15) days after delivery unless we reject the Equipment for good cause within such fifteen (15) day period. 10. LESSEE’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. You hereby represent, covenant and warrant as of the date hereof and as of the commencement of this Lease, and throughout the Lease Term: (a) you are a state or political subdivision thereof within the meaning of Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); (b) You are duly organized and existing under the Constitution and laws of the state in which you are located; (c) You are authorized to enter into and carry out your obligations under this Lease and every other document required to be delivered in connection therewith; (d) this Lease has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by you in accordance with all applicable laws, codes, ordinances, regulations, and policies; (e) any person signing this Lease has the authority to do so, is acting with the full express authorization of your governing body, and holds the office indicated below his or her signature, which is genuine; (f) the Equipment is essential to the immediate performance of a governmental or proprietary function by you within the scope of your authority and shall be used during the Lease Term only by you and only to perform such function; (g) you intend to use the Equipment for the entire Lease Term and shall take such action, in accordance with Section 3, to include in your annual budget request, for submission to your governing body, any funds required to fulfill your obligations for each succeeding fiscal period during the applicable Lease Term; (h) you have complied fully with all applicable laws, codes, ordinances, regulations, and policies, governing open meetings, competitive pricing and/or public bidding and appropriations required in connection with this Lease, the selection and acquisition of the Equipment and the selection of the supplier; (i) all payments due and to become due during your current fiscal period under this Lease are within the fiscal budget of such fiscal period, and are or will be included within an unrestricted and unencumbered appropriation currently available for the lease/purchase of such Equipment; (j) you shall not do or cause to be done any act which shall cause, or by omission of any act allow, the interest portion of any Lease Payment to become includible in our gross income for Federal income taxation purposes under the Code; (k) you shall comply with the information reporting requirements of Section 149(e) of the Code with respect to this Lease (such compliance shall include, but not be limited to, the execution of Form 8038-G or 8038-GC information reporting returns as appropriate); (l) all financial information provided by you is true and accurate and fairly represents your financial condition; (m) you have not for at least your most recent ten fiscal periods failed to appropriate or otherwise make available funds sufficient to pay rental or other payments coming due under any lease purchase, installment sale or other similar agreement; (n) there is no litigation, pending or threatened that would materially adversely affect the transactions contemplated by this Lease or your financial condition; and (o) any and all Equipment that you lease, purchase and/or acquire pursuant to this Lease is for your internal purposes only and not for resale. 11. ASSIGNMENT. You will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, sublease, or allow other parties rights to the Equipment without our consent. We may, upon notice to you but without your consent, sell, assign, or transfer all of our right, title, and interest under this Lease to another party (each, an “Assignee”). You agree that, upon such assignment, the Assignee will have the same rights and benefits of ours under the Lease, but not our obligations. You agree that the rights of Assignee will not be subject to any claims, defenses, or set-offs that you may have against us, or any supplier or vendor. Upon notice to you of such assignment, you agree to respond to any requests about this Lease and, if directed by us or the Assignee, to pay Assignee all Lease Payments and other amounts due under this Lease. You hereby appoint us as your agent to maintain a record of all assignments of this Lease in a form sufficient to comply with the registration requirements of Section 149(a) of the Code and the regulations prescribed thereunder from time to time, and we agree to maintain such registration record. 12. MISCELLANEOUS. You authorize us or our agent to: (a) obtain credit reports and make credit inquiries; (b) furnish payment history to credit reporting agencies; and (c) file UCC financing statements relating to the Equipment. We may, without notifying you, release information we have about you and this Lease to the manufacturer, supplier or any prospective investor, participant, beneficiary or purchaser of this Lease. If any amount in excess of that allowed by law is charged under this Lease, such charge will be deemed limited to the amount legally allowed and we will refund any excess we receive or apply it to payment of amounts legally owed under this Lease. If a court finds any provision of the Lease to be unenforceable, all other terms will remain in effect and enforceable. You authorize us to insert or correct missing or incorrect information on this Lease. We have the right to receive and retain or pay rebates, discounts and other compensation directly or indirectly from manufacturers, suppliers, vendors or third-parties with respect to the Equipment and such payments may affect the overall economics of the transaction. YOU HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND CONFIRM THAT YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY LEGAL, TAX, FINANCIAL OR ACCOUNTING ADVICE FROM US OR ANY SUPPLIER OR MANUFACTURER OF THE EQUIPMENT. Restrictive endorsements on checks you send to us will not reduce your obligations to us. This Lease and other related documents (each a “Document”) may be executed in counterparts (manually or by electronic means) by either party and transmitted to us by facsimile or other electronic means. No Document is binding on us until we sign it. When a copy of each Document containing your signature is signed by us (manually or electronically) and in our possession, then such copy shall constitute the original document for all purposes and this Lease shall constitute chattel paper as that term is defined in the UCC. If you sign or transmit any Document to us electronically, you shall provide the counterpart of such Document containing your original manual signature to us at our request. You agree not to raise as a defense to the enforcement of any Document that it was executed by electronic means by either party or transmitted to us by facsimile or other electronic means. This Lease is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns. THIS LEASE WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE WHERE YOU ARE LOCATED WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. ANY AGREEMENTS REACHED BY THE PARTI ES ARE CONTAINED IN THIS WRITING, WHICH WRITING IS THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, EXCEPT AS WE MAY LATER AGREE TO MODIFY IN WRITING. ORAL AGREEMENTS OR COMMITMENTS TO MODIFY THIS LEASE OR TO FORBEAR FROM ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF THE SAME ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE.

$1 Purchase OptionThank you for considering Apple Financial Services to fund your technology plan. Please find your $1 Purchase Option financing proposal below.

Financed Amount Annual Payments in Advance Lease Term

$121,590.00 $25,480.07 5 Years

2.39% Promotional APR

What is a $1 Purchase Option? This is a financing option designed for equipment ownership at the end of the financed term. The $1 Purchase Option creates predictable payments while enabling universities and schools to deploy years’ worth of equipment today using budgeted funds.

Why use a $1 Purchase Option? This option is usually recommended for educational institutions that know they want to own equipment at the end of term. Once the financed term ends, ownership will enable flexibility: continue using the equipment or trade it in to recover value toward new gear.

What are my options at the end of the financed term?End of term options will be detailed in the final documents. The options include:1. Purchase the equipment at end of term for $1.2. Trade in equipment for value toward a new purchase or financed term.

Overall, the $1 Purchase Option enables administrators to buy more equipment today, while providing the flexibility that ownership allows.

Please do not hesitate to call or email me at the contact information below with any questions.

Lease Discount Disclosure Statement: Apple Inc. through the Apple Financial Services program may provide an equipment discount to certain third-party investors. The discount may be applied to facilitate a lease rate discount. The actual interest rate paid on any resulting lease may be reflected in an amortization table provided with lease documents. The quoted payment amount does not include amounts that may be due for taxes or fees, if applicable.

The lease charge portion of the payments can be determined by applying to the total adjusted cost the rate which will amortize the total adjusted cost down to the purchase option amount. The lease charge rate may be higher than the actual annual interest rate because of the amortization of certain costs and fees incurred by the third-party investor. Rates may be subject to verification that the Lessee is a state or political subdivision as defined in Sec. 103 of the IRS Code, 1986.
