Scholarship Opportunity Reminders
If you have not already done so, you may want to consider applying for scholarship assistance for your child(ren) to attend our school.  Information was sent home regarding BLOCS applications in November and Children's Scholarship information went home in January.  Applications may be made online for both of these scholarships.  If you have questions or need assistance in completing the paperwork, please call the office in the Senior School (215.467.5338).  We will be happy to assist you or put you in touch with someone who can.

Spring Candy Sale
Students brought home flyers this week for our Spring Candy & Candy Bar Sale.  Please help support our students in this drive if you are able to do so.
