On Friday, 2/20, Ashley Zucker, a Cytologist from Thomas Jefferson University and Fox Chase Cancer Center, visited Mr. Heines’ Medical Interventions classes for a Career Chatter. Mrs. Zucker spoke about the value of a career in cytology and shared insights into the many aspects of working in laboratories and hospitals, including biopsying and identifying healthy and diseased tissues. She explained how cytologists play a critical role in diagnosing illnesses and supporting patient care behind the scenes. During her visit, Mrs. Zucker led students in collecting their own tissue samples, guiding them through the staining process, and helping them view their samples under the microscope. She also brought real patient samples for students to examine, allowing them to practice identifying different types of cells and tissues just as professionals do in the field.

THIS WEEKEND! Open House at Eastern Center for Arts and Technology (EASTERN) in Willow Grove is Sunday, March 1, 2026, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. This is a wonderful opportunity to see how EASTERN can give students a competitive edge in college or in a specialized career program. At the Open House, parents and students will learn how EASTERN students can earn college credits while still in high school through dual enrollment and articulation agreements. The Open House also offers an opportunity to hear from EASTERN instructors on the hands-on learning environment that complements students’ high school academics. Many special activities in EASTERN’s career programs are scheduled, and college and military representatives will be on site.

On Tuesday, February 24, ASHS students participated in the World Language Oral Proficiency Contest. Abington competed in French, German, Chinese, and Spanish. We congratulate all participants and the following medal winners: Yulee Murphy, Juliet Bartner, Patrick Pelosi, Jason Woodruff, and Autumn Wilkins. Because of the variation in different school program sizes,  French and Spanish programs were allowed to send one student per level while Chinese and German were allowed to send two students per level.

Do you ever wonder what Abington Senior High School does with its collection of donated fruits from the cafeterias? The Fruit Ninjas who have been running the fruit collection program since 2022 got to experience first-hand how your donations help our Abington and its surrounding communities. Members of the Fruit Ninjas visited the Willow Grove Baptist Food Pantry to help set up the food booths, hand out produce, eggs, meat, and snacks as well as household items like soap and toilet paper; they also assisted in cleaning up at the end. The students learned about the logistics and organization involved in running a food pantry. Each student shadowed an experienced volunteer, greeted food recipients, and packed food for them. The students brought smiles to the faces of the food pantry recipients as well as the other food pantry volunteers. Everyone at the food pantry applauded the Fruit Ninjas at the end of the shift. Feedback from the other volunteers included 'Can you all come every Monday?' and 'It's nice to see so many young people involved. We are #AbingtonProud #ASHSProud #FirstinActivities

In December and February, the ASHS Choirs traveled out into the community to spread holiday cheer. Between the Chorale, the Maroon and White Concert Choir and the Galloping Ghosts Concert Choir, the students, accompanied by their teacher Mrs. Wolf, traveled to 7 different destinations, including Abington Hospital, St. Peter's Church in Glenside, and 5 senior living centers. The choirs shared their vocal talents by singing holiday music, both December holidays and Valentine's Day serenading, and the staff, patients, community members, and residents were very grateful. The students benefited by getting to see firsthand how they could positively impact their community. We are very proud of this collaboration and of how well our ASHS students represented our program outside of school grounds and cared for our community members!

On Thursday, February 18, ASHS Spanish 3 students, chaperoned by Señora Mirabal and Señora Salas-Wert, danced the morning away at Flaco’s Dance Factory in Jenkintown. Our students impressed the instructors with their ability to pick up on the Latin groove easily! After working up an appetite dancing, the students enjoyed an authentic Mexican lunch at Provecho in Huntingdon Valley. It was an enriching local cultural experience for all!

For the last few weeks, Abington’s FAAD students have been visiting the elementary schools! They teamed up in small groups to teach kids about the dangers of drug use through fun activities. FAAD students were able to join elementary students for lunch and recess and showed the younger students that making healthy choices can be fun! We are #AbingtonProud #ASHSProud #FirstinActivities
