Today was the first meeting of the school year for the Superintendent's Student Advisory Council, in which two representatives from each school routinely meet with Dr. Fecher and Dr. Melchor to share their thoughts and experiences from across the district. Dr. Fecher also gave the students an assignment to go to their peers and ask for any feedback that should be brought to the next council meeting. #ASDProud

As an age-appropriate lesson on 9/11 for some of our youngest learners in Abington School District, elementary schools focused on the themes of community and heroism today. In Mr. Hudson's 1st grade Explorations class at McKinley, this involved making thank you cards for our local firefighters.
