Superintendent

Dear Lehighton Area School District Community,

I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the opportunity to serve as the District’s educational leader and to introduce myself to the community at large. 

My professional path to the Lehighton superintendency has provided me with fantastic educational and professional experiences. As a 1999 graduate of Lehighton Area High School, I attended Bloomsburg University and earned a degree in Secondary Education/English. My first teaching job was as a 7th grade English Language Arts teacher at J.T. Lambert Intermediate School in the East Stroudsburg Area School District. I then took a job in the Bloomsburg Area School District. I spent over a decade teaching in Bloomsburg at both the middle and high school levels. During this time, I served as a department chairperson, varsity basketball coach and as a union president.

In the 2017-2018 school year, I began my career in school administration after having earned my Master’s in Educational Leadership and K-12 Principal Certification from California University of Pennsylvania. I spent one year as the High School Assistant Principal in the Warrior Run Area School District, before returning to the Bloomsburg Area School District for the next four and a half years. During my administrative time in Bloomsburg, I served as the High School Principal, Executive Secondary Principal overseeing both the Middle School and High School, Acting Superintendent and then Director of Curriculum, Instruction and Grant Writing. During the last six months of my administrative time in Bloomsburg, I earned my Superintendent’s Letter of Eligibility from Shippensburg University. In January of 2023, I was hired as the Assistant Superintendent of the Danville Area School District where I worked until just last Friday. 

My career passion is to lead an educational organization that settles for nothing short of excellence in all ways.  We need to ensure that every child, regardless of background and circumstances, is provided with opportunities to achieve their fullest potential and secure generational change. Our job as a District is to put educational experiences and supports in place for all students. A world class education can be delivered while being responsible to the community’s economy and finances through sound systems, accountability for all, and trust between all stakeholders. 

Outside of my career obligations, I have a truly incredible family. My wife, Nicole, and I have five children spanning from six years old in Kindergarten up to twenty-one years old and a senior in college. As you can imagine, my family keeps me quite busy! I look forward to serving the Lehighton school community in all aspects and becoming enmeshed with the District and the surrounding municipalities, families and businesses.

Sincerely,

Jason Moser
Superintendent of Schools
