Getting To Know Each Other

Ms. Pusateri's students created a "Sophomore Get to Know Us Wall," located in the English/Foreign Language hallway. Students wrote an autobiographical poem and created a one-pager that showcases their personalities. This project, which was delayed from the typical beginning of the year activity which is on display at Open House, still provided a way for students to get to know each other since opportunities were limited during the altered schedule this year.

Pennsylvania Intermediate Units Coordinate Broadband Survey

In an effort to identify the level of Internet access and connectivity that residents have within our school district community, we are asking that you complete a short survey. All school districts in Pennsylvania have been asked to have their residents/families complete this survey. The data collected will greatly assist our school district, and school districts across the Commonwealth, with obtaining local, state, and federal broadband funding to provide additional resources to our student and families. Thank you, in advance, for taking this survey. Please see the flyer below. There is a QR code on the flyer and a electronic link which can also be found by clicking HERE
