(McKeesport, PA) The ending of a partnership between the Dicks Sporting Goods Foundation and the McKeesport Area School District occurred recently. The foundation blamed district leadership and the school board. Last Wednesday was the time that leaders of that school district knew about the broken agreement in a recent letter to parents. According to the McKeesport Area School District, the Dick’s Sporting Goods Foundation will honor its existing obligation through the summer.
