IMPERIAL, Pa. —
A petition on the website MoveOn.org seeks to end the summer reading and math program in the West Allegheny School District.

The petition which has almost 1,000 signatures asks that summer reading and math requirements be removed from the district with an organizer writing “What happened to kids being kids in the summer?”

The organizer did not offer any details about what the particular reading and math requirements are.

The petition was be delivered to Dr. Jerri Lippert, the superintendent of the school district, and will be presented at a school board meeting Wednesday.
