Last week, over 115 Juniors and Seniors in the Link Crew reported to school to train and prepare for the Class of 2027 orientation, which occurred yesterday. They played games, created name tags for their small group of 9th graders, and brainstormed best strategies to make the newest class feel part of the ASHS community! #OneASD #ASDProud #Back2SchoolASD

Willkommen! 38 Abington students of German and their families excitedly greeted their 45 German exchange partners from Karlsgymnasium in the Bavarian town of Bad Reichenhall, accompanied by their teachers, Cornelia Grabichler and Johannes Kindermann. It was a joyful reunion for 30 of the Abington students, who had visited their partners in Germany six weeks ago. The Abington students are looking forward to giving their German partners the insider's perspective on the life of an American high school student for the next three weeks by attending class, football games, and touring the area.

Please be advised: Tonight's football game between Abington Senior High School and Cheltenham High School has been suspended and will be resumed at a later date, due to the discovery that a Cheltenham attendee was in possession of a firearm and safety concerns. The individual has been taken into police custody and attendees of the game were instructed to promptly leave the school campus in an abundance of caution. Both football teams were safely dismissed to the locker rooms and the stadium has been cleared safely.
