Superintendent Brown delivered the district report, reminding families that elementary and middle school PSSA testing begins next week and that Keystone subject exams for grades 8–12 will be administered in May. "I urge all parents and guardians to read the emails that have been sent with information about the assessments," Brown said.
Brown congratulated a Carl Sandburg student, John Kelly, whose artwork was selected for the Bucks County Intermediate Unit annual student art exhibition, and praised the Carl Sandburg Middle School musical cast for recent performances and awards. He then promoted the district STEAM Expo at Neshaminy High School, scheduled for 6:30–8:30 p.m. tomorrow, calling it "one of the most anticipated events of the year" and noting admission is free and the event will feature hands-on activities and community volunteers.
The superintendent’s remarks also thanked volunteers and highlighted the role of the Neshaminy Education Foundation. In foundation news reported later in the meeting, the foundation said its recent Harlem Wizards fundraising game drew over 900 attendees and raised nearly $20,000; the foundation selected five Neshaminy high-school seniors to each receive a $1,000 scholarship, with the recipients to be announced at the senior awards ceremony in May.
Brown concluded his update by noting the district is moving into the final portion of the school year and encouraging families to engage with school communications about testing and events.
