Program in Partnership with the Allentown School District

One of the most successful programs is the expanded PAL basketball program.  This program started nearly 20 years ago, and involved only 3 public elementary schools. Participants played open basketball in a non-competitive way. The program then expanded to competition between all the city elementary schools and it became even more successful.  The program starts in December and concludes in March.  Part of the program requirement is that students must be free of any discipline record, maintain a positive attitude, and have good grades. Players must also maintain good sportsmanship throughout the program. Feedback from school officials and the general public has been very positive.  Teachers have reported a very notable positive change in the student’s attitudes.  


The coaches for the teams are Allentown School District teachers.  School Resource Officer Unit and the Juvenile division from the Allentown Police Department are at the games in the capicity of either a referee or working the score table.  Director of Educational Operations from the Allentown School District Keith Falko and Officer April Knerr coordinated the program.  Practices consists of one hour of tutoring and one hour of basketball occurring twice a week.  Games are played on Tuesday and Wednesday at Jefferson and Central elementary.
