Neshaminy School District Getting $516K Safety Grant

LOWER BUCKS COUNTY, PA — The Neshaminy School District is among several in Lower Bucks County to get funding from school safety and mental health grants.

State Rep. Joe Hogan said that the 142nd House District has received funding from the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency’s (PCCD) School Safety and Security Committee (SSSC).

School safety and mental health grants are open to public school entities, including school districts, career and technical schools/centers, intermediate units, and charter schools.

“Our students should always feel safe and secure wherever they attend school,” Hogan said. “These grants help both our area school districts and technical schools provide programs to support their students’ mental health and fund safety upgrades at their facilities across the district.”

Funds will advance the School Safety and Security Committee’s goal of ensuring that all Pennsylvania students can learn in safe, healthy school environments by helping school entities address basic safety and mental health needs.

The districts that received funding are:

• Neshaminy School District received $516,521.
• Bucks County Technical School received $70,000.
• Middle Bucks Institute of Technology received $70,000.
