❄️☃️This is a message from the Brandywine Heights Area School District. To help families prepare for tomorrow morning I wanted to send a message out this evening with an update on the status of school tomorrow. The School District will be operating under a two hour delay for tomorrow, Monday, January 19th. Based on the current snow coming down and freezing temperatures over night, a delay will allow time to clear roads and school grounds. We will evaluate conditions in the morning and any additional calls will be made by 8:00 am.

Please stay safe and warm this evening!

Reminder: Monday, January 19 is now a Snow Make-Up Day.

School will be in session ❄️

Students in Spanish 3 and 4 created a masterpiece based on the artwork “The Flower Carrier” by Diego Rivera. Each student drew and colored a square to make the complete piece. Students in Spanish 1, 2, and 3 learned about Rivera’s life and art. Great work, everyone!

🎄✨ As we head into the holiday break, we want to wish our entire school community a joyful and restful holiday season. Over the past few weeks, our hallways have been filled with creativity and cheer as staff and students brought their classrooms to life through festive door decorating. Our teachers also went above and beyond—hosting classroom celebrations, flipping pancakes, serving homemade hot chocolate, and even joining in on some fun White Elephant gift exchanges. Thank you to everyone who shared their energy, teamwork, and school spirit. Enjoy a well-deserved break—we look forward to seeing you in the new year!

Early Dismissal Tomorrow! Please plan ahead—dismissal will follow the adjusted schedule (please see ES for car pick-up/walker times). Thanks for your support and flexibility!

🐾💙 Special Guest in Mental & Emotional Wellness Class! 💙🐾 Our high school students enrolled in Mental and Emotional Wellness had a surprise yesterday—a visit from our therapy dog in training, Gus! 🐶✨ As part of their learning, students explored how serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin affect mood, motivation, and connection. Therapy dogs can naturally help boost these “feel-good” chemicals while providing comfort, connection, and emotional support. Learning about mental health doesn’t have to stay in a textbook—sometimes it has four legs and a wagging tail.

The Brandywine Heights Area School District will be operating under a two hour delay. Road conditions, particularly in the higher elevations, have areas where snow has turned to ice and are slippery.
