🍔 Today was Local PA Beef Day at our High School! Students enjoyed sampling delicious Smashburgers while our Agriculture class learned about sourcing beef from Pennsylvania farms. 🐄
Through our partnership with the PA Beef to PA Schools program, we’re connecting our school with local cattle producers to 'beef' up lunches, offering more locally sourced beef more often. This initiative supports local farms, fights food insecurity, and brings the PA Beef industry closer to our community. 🌾❤️
A big thank you to everyone who made this day a success!

Thank you, Austin, for your incredible work restoring a school pavilion at the IS/MS building as part of your Eagle Scout project! Your dedication to our school and community is truly inspiring.
Here's what Austin had to say about the project: "Hello, my name is Austin Lawhorne and I was asked by Mr. Potteiger to fix a pavilion on the school grounds that had been damaged by a fallen tree. I accepted, without hesitation, as I was looking for an Eagle Scout project at the time. I cut down the tree, fixed the roof, and cleaned up the area. I am so glad that I was asked to do this project, as this school means a lot to me and being asked by the Superintendent to do a project for the school and the community, means a lot."--Austin

5th Graders from Girl Scout Troop 104 presented their Citizen Scientist Journey to 4th and 5th grade classes this week. These amazing girls studied how our local trees can be negatively affected by invasive insects. They led three hands on stations for students to explore that shared their research over the past year. The girls encourage all families to check out the scistarter website to explore thousands of projects that you will have fun exploring environment topics.
Let’s come together as BHASD and gather supplies to donate 65 Holiday Boxes to the Brandywine Food Pantry. Each grade level is responsible for a specific item in the boxes. If you can donate, please send in the items with your child. Collection is happening now through 12/6/24!
Happy #WorldKindnessDay! A little kindness goes a long way in brightening someone's day, whether it's a warm smile, a friendly hello, or lending a helping hand. Let's make our community a place where kindness thrives, one small act at a time! How are you spreading kindness today?
