Residents raise online‑safety alarm over disturbing game and urge redistricting as enrollment climbs in Worcester Township

Two members of the public used the district’s courtesy period to raise safety and enrollment concerns.

Online safety: Safy Sheller (Lower Providence) described a disturbing game she encountered that students are calling "Five Nights at Epstein's," which uses imagery from public records about Jeffrey Epstein and—according to the speaker—has tutorials for children to install it undetected on school Chromebooks. She said her 10‑year‑old reported peers discussing the game and urged the district to investigate device exposure and web‑filtering effectiveness. The administration acknowledged the concern, offered to follow up, and asked for contact information so staff could investigate whether the content was being accessed on district devices and whether additional parental outreach or filtering adjustments were needed.

Enrollment and redistricting: Worcester Township resident Aaron Wiggle said recent housing development (he cited roughly 375 new homes in his township) has created capacity pressures at neighborhood elementary schools. He described full classes in several grades at a neighborhood school and urged the district to evaluate elementary boundary lines and broader redistricting options to balance enrollments.

Board response and next steps: District administrators said they will follow up with both members of the public. On online safety the administration requested direct contact information so technology and building leaders can investigate reported URLs and device logs; for enrollment the district agreed to monitor capacity and discuss boundary options in committee work to align facilities with growth patterns.
