Gifted Screening Throughout SASD
In compliance with the Pennsylvania School Code (Chapter 16) the district conducts ongoing gifted screening activities using the MAP assessment which is administered three times a year. Screening activities are conducted in grades 4 and 5 using the Fall MAP administration scores, and in grades 2 and 3 using the Winter MAP administration scores. If your child meets the criteria to move to the next round of screening, you will be notified by the school counselor.

Mark Your Calendars for SH 2026 Holiday Shop!
This year's shop will be held during the school day on Thursday, December 3rd and Friday, December 4th!
This is a great (and optional) opportunity for students to spend up to 25 minutes doing a little holiday shopping for family and friends. There will be a variety of gift items ranging in price from $0.25 to $10.00, with a majority under $5.00. Your child will soon bring home a letter with more information, labels for wrapping, and a money envelope - please check their folders!
Please email holidayshop@salfordhillshsa.org with any questions or concerns.

Of course there is never an expectation of gifts; the questionnaire simply serves as a guide for those who are searching for the right gift. Links to the questionnaires are divided alphabetically into 3 PDFs below. Please email board@salfordhillshsa.org with any questions.

Peer Assisted Leadership Training (PAL's Training)
Some fourth grade students traveled to the Boy and Girls Club in Souderton last week for the Peer Assisted Leadership program training. This training was lead by our SASD guidance counselors to train these fourth grade students how to help solve conflicts that arise on the playground during first grade recess.
First Grade Community Lessons
Our first grade students have been learning about our community. They had a special visit from Waste Management who showed them all the ways they help out in our community. It was a super fun visit for everyone! A huge thank you to Waste Management for coming out to see our first graders.
Home and School News
We Need You!!
The Home & School Association helps to plan events and Teacher Appreciation, coordinate volunteers for classroom activities, and so much more. But none of this happens without plenty of helping hands. Sadly, this is the last year for some of our best volunteers.
So we need you now more than ever to ensure these events can continue!
There are so many ways to serve at Salford Hills, both big and small. We would love to see you at our monthly meetings or you can reach out if you are interested in learning more at board@salfordhillshsa.org. Whether you are the parent of a Kindergartener or a 5th grader, it's never too late to get involved!
Next Home & School Meeting: January 12th at 6pm in the SH Cafeteria!
No meeting in December
Meetings are a great opportunity to meet other parents, learn about HSA events and discover different ways to get involved and volunteer -- big or small. We need you now more than ever! Bring your ideas, concerns, or questions to the Board and allow the kids to play since childcare is always provided at no cost! We hope you'll join us!
Volunteer Registration Form
If you have any interest in potentially volunteering (donating time, talent, funds or food!) at any time throughout the school year, please fill out the Google form below. There will be plenty of chances to get involved both in the classroom and at after school events.
