❄️☃️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 ❄️

Santa's checked in, smiles all around, the IS/MS students are ready to enjoy their holiday break!

Nothing sweeter than former teachers stopping by the IS/MS with some holiday cheer and Christmas cookies! Our hearts (and cookie jars) are full!

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!

The “Fabulous Five”, a team of 5th grade students traveled to the BCIU and participated in the Keystone Competition. Their challenge was to create something that would make PA schools better. They created “Moptezuma”, which is a combination of a robotic vending machine and robotic cleaner. They wanted to improve lunch time efficiency and help the custodians clean up the cafeteria. The students did an excellent job!
