Serving Up a Slice of Knowledge...Happy Pi Day BHASD!🥧🎉 #PiDay #BHASD


Mr. Tony has lots of helpers with his job today!!

🎲 Jenga... but make it educational! Today in Freshman Seminar, we took this classic game and gave it a stress-related twist.
Students pulled a “stressor” card, each assigned a specific number of blocks to remove from the tower. Then, they evaluated how truly stressful their card was compared to others. In small groups, they ranked stressors from most to least stressful—but the real test?
👉 What actually made the tower fall? Was it the biggest stressor, or just the last one added? 🤯
To tie it all together, we introduced the phrase “the straw that broke the camel’s back”—helping students reflect on how stress builds up over time.
Great discussions, critical thinking, and a little friendly competition? Sounds like a win!

We’re proud to share that Brandywine Heights Area School District has been recognized at the PASBO 70th Annual Conference with the School Operations Impact Award for our Feeding Futures: Grab & Go Summer Meal Program!
