UNION GRADUATION MOVED TO MONDAY
Due to severe weather predictions for this evening (Wednesday), as well as the rain date on Friday, Union High School's commencement program has been moved to Monday, June 8.
The program will be held at the high school football field, and crowd size is limited to those with tickets.
Voters reject tax hike, referendum fails
NEW BETHLEHEM – While voters around the area went to the polls yesterday (Tuesday) to vote in a presidential primary election that appears to be already wrapped up, voters in the Redbank Valley School District had a much more local issue on their ballots.
And although supporters of the referendum asking voters to allow the school district to raise property taxes significantly above the state-allowed index made a strong push in recent days, the effort appears to have failed.
With an undetermined, yet significant, number of mail-in ballots waiting to be counted in Clarion and Armstrong counties, initial election results from voters who cast their vote at the polls on Tuesday shows that the tax referendum question was voted down 836 to 1,248 across the district.
Clarion County voters cast 714 ballots against the referendum, and 453 in favor. Armstrong County voters cast 534 votes against the referendum, and 383 in favor.
School board members went to the public with the tax question, asking that voters approve a 7.7302 mill tax increase for Armstrong County and a 12.9715 mill increase for Clarion County above the 3.8 percent index.

Redbank Valley School Board Special Meeting Announced

Community comes together for New Bethlehem family
NEW BETHLEHEM – Redbank Valley community members came together recently to help out a New Bethlehem family still dealing with the loss of their husband and father.
When Jason Best, an elementary teacher at Union, died suddenly the day after Christmas at the age of 47, the New Bethlehem family’s lives were turned upside down.
Jason’s wife, Stacy, said that on top of losing her husband, the father of Marley Best and Gregory Nolf, a tree removal service showed up the day after to cut down trees on their New Bethlehem property.
It turned out that Jason Best had contracted the work prior to his death, and the family decided to proceed since it was his wish to remove the trees.
Unfortunately, Stacy Best said, the work to remove the tree line left a big mess at the property, including uneven ground.
