🐾 Special Guest Alert: Officer Raymond De Los Santos & Moose!
Today, our DARE Program for our 5th Grade Students had a very special visit from Officer Raymond De Los Santos and his talented Bloodhound K9 partner, Moose!
The students learned that Moose isn't just a friendly pup—he is a highly trained professional. The officer explained how Moose uses his incredible sense of smell to track missing people. Moose came to the Abington Police Force from a shelter. How lucky we are to have him in Abington!

Willow Hill Elementary School kicked off Black History Month with the annual tradition of participating in the National African American Read-In, where older students read to younger students and form a human reading chain from one end of the building to the other. Students had the opportunity to pick out reading materials ahead of time from a selection of books created by African American authors and/or illustrators. #ASDProud #ASDReads
On February 3rd, Willow Hill enjoyed a live performance from the Touring Outreach company from The Walnut Street Theater. Four actors performed the musical Grace for President. In this show, a 5th grader named Grace learns that by believing in herself, working hard, and standing up for what’s right, she can show everyone that anyone—boy or girl—can be a great leader and make a difference in their school and community. After the show, some students got to ask the actors questions!
