Brandywine Heights High School -

BCTC Health Occupations Students Gain Real-World Experience Across St. Luke’s Network: Madison Haring, a Brandywine Heights senior’s co-op learning experience is at St. Luke’s Care Now in Macungie. “One thing I love about co-op is all the hands-on experience. I get to work with patients every single day,” she said. Madison triaged patients and worked alongside nurses and physician assistants. “Working at St. Luke’s reinforced my decision to work in healthcare. I really love the experience.”

Great work, Madison! We are proud of you!

Celebrating Kindness Day Across BHASD!

Thursday our district came together to shine a light on the power of kindness, with each building embracing a unique theme that showcased creativity, connection, and compassion. Elementary students brought a Kindness Tree to life by adding personalized leaves to its branches. Each leaf represented a kind thought, action, or message—growing a beautiful visual reminder of how small acts can make a big impact. Students at the Intermediate & Middle School designed and decorated handprints that are now proudly displayed in the cafeteria. The Be the "I" in Kind mural invites everyone to literally and figuratively stand in the I, reinforcing that each person plays an essential role in spreading kindness. Finally, students at the High School put Kindness into Action and gathered on the turf field for a photo.
Across all grade levels, our students showed what it means to lift each other up and contribute to a community where everyone belongs. Thank you to our staff and students for making Kindness Day meaningful, memorable, and inspiring!

🎵 Several high school students performed at the Thanksgiving Luncheon. Isabella Tierney and Ava Miller (both seniors) performed a song by Suki Waterhouse. 🎸 🎤 Ellis Kline (senior) and Ella Vaccaro (sophomore) performed a song by Laufey 🎹 Well done! ✨
