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!
🎉 District Wide Spirit Day is THIS Friday, May 2nd!

Thank you for supporting our talented students! 💙🎵
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. 💙
In Library, First grade is using old book catalogs to cut out books they want to read, and separating them into Fiction and Nonfiction!
In honor of Arbor Day, the 7th grade science students planted 14 new trees along our stretch of Toad Creek! 🌳 The planting is a continuation of the stream improvement plan which began last school year. Rooted in learning, growing a brighter future. ✨
It is the final week of registration for Camp Spark! The QR Code will provide you with the forms needed to sign your child up for this free three week summer learning opportunity.

Children enjoyed yoga with Miss April!
Pre-K children who attended today's kindergarten readiness group worked on an alphabet scavenger hunt..
It was a beautiful day for Busy Bs in the Park. The children enjoyed Earth Day activities, lunch/snacks, and free playtime. Thank you to all the families who attended!
🐟 Trout in the Classroom Update!
Our little trout are thriving! These fry are now well into their growing stage—developing strong stripes and swimming with confidence. They'll be ready for their release into the wild by the end of May. 🏞️
Thanks to our students for helping raise the next generation of aquatic life—one splash at a time! 🌊
Pre-K (Potteiger) had special visitors today. Two chicks scurried around the students as the class observed their chick behaviors.
In Technology, Ms. Appleman’s class was learning about how variable amounts of detail affect the number of search results on search engines! The kids started by typing up as much as they could of what they saw in the first level of, “New Pokémon Snap.” They then picked their favorite word, searched it via Google, and analyzed the number of search results yielded versus if they added more detail, in addition to their original word.
🛠️ “If you build it…”
Well, we are — and it’s looking good.
From fresh blacktop to towering lights and a scoreboard that’s ready for the spotlight, our stadium project is laying the groundwork for something legendary.
💥 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.
Happy Earth Day from Brandywine Heights Area School District! 🌱
Did you know? Just one mature tree can absorb up to 48 pounds of carbon dioxide a year and provide oxygen for two people! 🌳
Let’s keep growing, learning, and protecting the place we all call home—pick up a piece of trash, plant something green, or just take a moment to enjoy the sunshine ☀️
