🦇Bat Signal Activated: Learning in Flight Our 7th grade students got an up-close look at some of the incredible work happening just down the road in Mertztown—thanks to a special visit from the PA Bat Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, the LARGEST facility of its kind on the East Coast! The center provides vital shelter for injured and vulnerable bats and plays a key role in educating the public about bat conservation. More than just cool critters, these bats are part of a bigger mission: protecting vulnerable species, educating future conservationists, and proving that even the smallest wings can make a big impact.

Today, Mrs. Kemp’s class took a trip to LaFaver Family Farm in Hamburg for a hands-on learning adventure! Students learned how the steers are raised and cared for on a daily basis. Each student had a chance to feed them. They even got up close with a friendly bunny and pony. The students explored the open fields and experienced life on the farm—what a memorable and educational day!

We had some pretty special guests at our April 7 School Board meeting 💫 ✨ Mrs. Donna Kline, our beloved High School Head Cook, was honored with a plaque recognizing her 31 years of dedicated service. From early mornings to lunch lines and everything in between — thank you for filling our hearts (and stomachs) for over three decades. You’ll be missed more than you know! 💥 We also celebrated our #NewHeights winners: • Heidi Stufflet, Paraprofessional — praised for her kindness, reliability, and always going the extra mile to help her classroom #ReachNewHeights! • Kelly Womack, K–3 STEM — known for her sincere heart, creative spirit, and unwavering support for both students and staff. A true rock star in every sense. It’s moments like these that remind us how lucky we are at Brandywine Heights Area School District. 💙

Miss McLean’s class had a deliciously educational day! 🥯🎨 They started their adventure with a behind-the-scenes tour of NY Bagelry, where they learned how bagels are made and explored the various career opportunities in the food industry. Afterward, the class visited the GoggleWorks Center for the Arts to check out the BCIU Art Show, where they admired incredible artwork created by talented high school students from across Berks County.

💥 NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES... Some wear lanyards, rock spreadsheets, wrangle calendars, and somehow answer three phones while returning an email. They're fast. They're focused. They're the behind-the-scenes warriors who keep the entire District running smoother than a brand-new copier. 🔥 Strength: Knowing the answer before you finish the question ⚡ Weakness: Empty pot of coffee 💪 Special Move: Turning chaos into calm 🎉 Happy Administrative Professionals Day! You might not wear a cape, but trust us—we see your superpowers.
