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!

The Brandywine Heights Intermediate/Middle School Winter Concerts were a huge success! Our 5th and 6th graders opened the season with an energetic and heartfelt performance, showcasing their growing talent and teamwork. Later, the 7th and 8th graders took the stage a few days later with a polished, dynamic program that highlighted their musical skills and dedication. Both concerts brought festive cheer, proud smiles, and a wonderful celebration of our students’ hard work and creativity. ❄️🎶

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. A delay will allow additional time to ensure there are safe travel conditions for the opening of school.

❄️☃️The Brandywine Heights Area School District will be CLOSED tomorrow (Tuesday, December 2) due to the forecasted snow and wintry mix. Higher elevations in the District are expected to see increased snow and ice throughout the day.
Because of the long Thanksgiving break, Elementary students do not have devices at home, so a virtual learning day is not possible.
An update on after-school and evening activities—including the School Board meeting—will be shared by lunchtime tomorrow.
Stay warm and safe!

Our fourth graders are wrapping up their embryology unit with the most exciting surprise—CHICKS! 🐥
After weeks of learning, observing, and carefully tending to the incubator, they finally got to meet the tiny fluffballs they’ve been waiting for. Such a sweet reminder of the curiosity, care, and responsibility these students show every day!
