🔙 Throwback Thursday: A Glimpse into Amity High School’s Rich History! 🔙 Did you know the building on the corner of Rt 662 and Weavertown Road has a history that dates back to the 1930s? Originally constructed for the 1931-32 school term, the first iteration of Amity High School consisted of 11 rooms, a gym/auditorium, and served grades 1-12. 🌟 By 1939, the school expanded with four new classrooms and a shop to meet the growing needs of the community. As Amity continued to thrive, another addition came in 1953, bringing with it four more classrooms, a cafeteria, updated lavatories, a remodeled gym/auditorium, and a modernized heating system. ❄️🔥 Fast forward to 1956, when a movement to enlarge school districts led to the formation of the Daniel Boone Joint School System, which included Amity, Birdsboro, and Union Townships. The changes didn’t stop there! In 1972, as Amity continued to flourish, seven more classrooms and a library were added to the building. 📚✏️ The final additions came in the 1980s with two more classrooms, and over time, the building became the Amity Elementary Center (grades 1-5) then transitioning to Amity Primary Center (grades K-2) when the new Amity Intermediate Center building was constructed. Today, the building is home to River Rock Academy and Berks Encore, continuing its legacy of serving the community in new ways. 🏫 photo credit: berksnostalgia.com #Throwback Thursday #TBT

Caron's Youth Educational Program is here to help these youth understand what their loved one is facing, to offer them ways to cope, and to build their support system so they can thrive. Caron's Youth Education Program provides a safe and caring space for youth to learn that they are not alone and that there is hope for healing, for both them and their loved one.

Leaders incorporate activities, including crafts, team-building exercises, recreation, and educational groups. At the end of the program, each family receives a list of resources that can provide ongoing support and education about substance use disorder for their child.
