Weatherly schools plan veterans service, activities

The Weatherly Area School District has a busy November ahead, and the public is invited to many of the events.

Thanksgiving starts early with a Thanksgiving feast during lunch on Thursday – featuring the “famous Weatherly pumpkin dessert” according to director of food and nutrition Jeanine Snyder.

Speaking at the Weatherly Area School Board caucus meeting on Nov. 2, she also said that the free breakfast program is being well-attended, with 50 served at the high school and 60 at the elementary/middle school.

On Friday, the public is invited to the Veterans Day Assembly, which begins at 9:15 a.m. in the middle school gym.

The evening of the 19th has the senior class hosting two for fun basketball games, against teachers and staff, and against the parents, as a fun evening and fundraiser.

The public is also encouraged to attend fall sports contests.

Parents are reminded that Parent-Teacher Conferences are Nov. 22, and parents should call in to reserve a spot. The Title 1 Parent Advisory Council will also meet that evening.

Late October was also busy, with fall sports, the semiformal, and a well-attended trunk-or-treat event which was “a lot of fun” according to vice principal Christopher Kimmel.

Looking ahead, teachers Maria Whitley and Judith Kunkle will be co-advisers for the drama club, and have set April 21 for the spring play performance.

The Weatherly Area School Board holds its voting meeting at 7 p.m. Wednesday, in the Middle School.
