With leftover funds in their account, the Class of '67 generously donated the remainder to our Backpack Program (an initiative that quietly supports students by sending home weekend meals during the school year).
Thanks to their kindness, this program continues to help meet real needs with dignity and care.
Your legacy lives on in the most meaningful way. Thank you, Class of 1967. ❤️

Painting is in full swing! Our painters are carefully making sure every last corner is covered. It’s the little details that make a big difference. Thanks to our crew for keeping things fresh for fall!

We wrapped up three incredible weeks of summer learning fun with 119 campers in Pre-K–8 and 51 ESY students joining weekly activities!
From World Travelers to Scientists in Training to Super Hero Academy, students explored, created, and connected—supported by an amazing team of staff and high school volunteers.
Huge thanks to everyone who made Camp SPARK a success—and to the Brandywine Heights Education Foundation and United Way for helping make it possible!

This list is completely optional. We understand that financial situations vary, and no student will ever be expected to bring in supplies or be impacted if they can’t. This is simply an opportunity for those who wish to contribute, every student will have what they need to learn and succeed.
We’ve also worked to ensure that this year’s list is equitable and consistent across classrooms and grade levels. Families should not receive separate or additional lists from individual teachers once school begins. This version represents the final, agreed-upon list for the 2025-26 school year.
You can view the supply list here:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ji_dD83InOrgsjbR3kaS1d7AcUjyjfnLXZmCjX9xa-o/edit?tab=t.0
Thank you for your continued partnership and support. We’re looking forward to a great year ahead!
