The Marple Newtown School Board was busy yesterday - and we are pleased to share that after years of planning, we have finally voted to accept the bids to begin our renovation and expansion project at Worrall Elementary School.

Over the next several weeks, there will be a number of pre-construction meetings. Our team is going to offer Mid-May meetings with teachers, staff, parents and neighbors so that they can all understand the scope of the project and begin to familiarize themselves with what Worrall will look like over the next two years, and, even better, what it will look like for the next thirty.

We expect shovels will be "in the ground" in June. Following yesterday's vote - we are all systems go!

This morning at the high school, a sprinkler burst. Students were excused from the building, and the fire department was called. The fire department has since inspected the building and cleared it for students to come back inside. However, due to the flooding issues, students are being dismissed for the day at the high school only. A communication will be going out imminently.

MNSD schools will be closed tomorrow. Our operations and transportation groups did a great job of trying to get things ready, as did our local townships and their crews, but it doesn’t look like many of the neighborhood roads are in good enough condition for school buses.
