Hello Brandywine Families,
As a reminder, we are in the final phase of construction, installation of the all-weather track.
It is absolutely critical that no one walks on the track during this process. The track is a three-layer system, and each layer requires approximately 2–3 days to cure and fully dry. Walking on the surface during this installation phase will cause permanent damage to the final product.
We kindly ask that you please avoid using the entire track and turf field stadium area at the High School until approximately October 24 to ensure the best possible outcome for our students and community.
Thank you for your cooperation and continued support as we complete this exciting project!

Hello Brandywine Families,
We wanted to share a quick update on the High School Stadium Project. The final phase of construction, installation of the all-weather track, is now underway!
It is critical that no one walks on the track during this process. The track is a three-layer system, and each layer requires approximately 2–3 days to cure and fully dry. Walking on the surface before it’s ready can leave imprints and cause long-term damage to the final product.
We kindly ask that you please avoid using the entire track and turf field stadium area at the High School until approximately October 24 to ensure the best possible outcome for our students and community.
Thank you for your cooperation and continued support as we complete this exciting project!

Today was Mr. Saltzburg’s last day at BHHS. Mr. Saltzburg has been the Director of Instrumental Music for the last 8+ years and also teaches 4th Grade Band and instrument lessons. Under his direction, BHHS bands have performed in Disney World, Gatlinburg, the PA State Capitol, and the 2021 Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day Parade. He also brought in numerous clinicians to work with both the Concert Band and Jazz Ensemble. Most importantly, he has impacted so many students with his musical knowledge and encouragement (and sarcasm). Thank you for your countless hours and dedication to your students and the BH Music Department. We wish you the best!

Hello,
We are excited to announce that the Intermediate/Middle School tennis courts have been completely refinished and a new perimeter fence installed. The space looks wonderful and has been upgraded to include six (6) pickleball courts and three (3) tennis courts, all equipped with new nets.
These courts are open for use by students, families, and the community, and we encourage everyone to enjoy them. We do kindly ask for your cooperation in keeping the space clean and using it only for tennis or pickleball.
As you may know, pickleball is one of the fastest-growing sports in the country. To help introduce the game, we are hosting a Pickleball Introduction Clinic on:
Saturday, October 18
9:00 – 10:30 AM
Rain date: Saturday, October 25
If you are interested in participating in this clinic, please complete the following Interest Survey:
