SUN Bucks: Pennsylvania’s Summer EBT Program
Summer is a time when many children may not have access to the free and reduced-price meals they get during the school year, and households might need a little extra help putting meals on the table. This year Pennsylvania will launch SUN Bucks, Pennsylvania’s Summer EBT program, a new grocery benefits program that provides households with a one-time payment of $120 for each eligible child to buy food while school is out. Benefits can be used at local participating retailers to purchase groceries. Please click here for more information.

NEED TO REACH US?
When you need to reach Council Rock with an issue concerning your child, where should you start? This contact reference guide can direct you to help in solving school related problems that are non-emergency related.
In the event of an emergency, please call 9-1-1.
Most issues can be solved at the school level, and the guide below will help direct you to the correct information:
- Contact your child's teacher. They know your child best, and can likely help with your concerns. If needed the teacher can direct you to the principal or school counselor.
- Contact the school principal if the teacher is not able to assist or you have an urgent matter. The principal may direct you to the correct administrative department when appropriate.
- Contact the administrative department if the principal directs you there, or if your concern is not classroom-related. Tax inquiries should be directed to our Business Department at 215-944-1000. Other administrative departments are listed on the www.crsd.org webpage.
- If none of the above resources are able to help with a resolution, call the Superintendent's office at 215-944-1000.
