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!

It’s moments like these that remind us how lucky we are at Brandywine Heights Area School District. 💙

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.
