              Please remember that this is a “tentative calendar”.  If you need to take time off from your place of employment, please call the school at 215-785-0973 or check your monthly calendar to make sure the date did not change.

              We are unable to give more than a month’s notice for activities that we have at school.  Sometimes these are not scheduled until a few weeks before the calendars go out to the parents and guardians.

              There will be 4 Professional Development Days.  These days are still being processed.  We will inform you of the dates as soon as possible.
