Ms. Oldham's first grade class celebrated Unity Day with a very special Mystery Reader! Dr. Fecher read the story, "I am We: A Book of Community", and discussed the importance of uniting together against bullying. "Connected is what we are: part of a worldwide community, diverse and magnificent, kind and accepting, supportive and present. All of us important, none of us alone." #ASDProud #ASDReads

On Wednesday, October 1, Abington School District will celebrate the third annual Pink Pants Day in memory of former Abington Middle School English teacher, Mr. Chris Hamsher. During October, Mr. Hamsher combined his desire to help others with his flair for fashion by frequently sporting pink pants in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. To continue this tradition, students and staff are invited to wear pink pants (or a pink shirt) on the first day of October. A fundraiser among staff will also aim to raise money for a scholarship fund created in his memory. #ASDProud #OneASD #LeadwithLove
Thank you to the Abington Township Police Department for visiting Roslyn Elementary School during Start With Hello Week! Each year, thousands of schools and youth organizations nationwide participate in this annual event dedicated to making new social connections and creating a sense of belonging among youth. #ASDProud #StartWithHello
UPDATE: Unfortunately, due to limited registrations, it is necessary to postpone this event to a future date.
Community organizations and local mental health experts will lead a discussion about mental health and wellness among our area’s youth and young adults, including how to identify signs of distress, how to support them in maintaining healthy mindsets, what you can do to help during times of a mental health crisis, and social-emotional resources that are available right in our own backyards.
