Volunteers needed!

The Home and School is in need of officers and volunteers for this year. There are a number of events that will not be able to happen this school year unless we are able to create a working Home and School Association, and we can't do that without your help!

If you are interested in helping the students have the best possible high school experience by volunteering a small amount of your time, please contact Joann Taweel at [email protected]

these are volunteer positions

March is Youth Art Month. The Pennsylvania Art Education Youth Art Month Artist Exhibition active link is below. Each member of the National Art Education Association, Pennsylvania Art Education Association was permitted to submit three works representing their school. Rush submitted pieces created by Sanjana Orion, Sara Le, and Allison Beveridge.

You need to virtually move through the exhibit hall. The High School Gallery is towards the back so you will have to move through several rooms to reach it.

I am happy to report that Allison Beveridge was awarded TWO blue ribbons. I am very excited to see how this is presented at the awards ceremony on March 20th (virtually). The ceremony will be recorded and uploaded to the PAEA youtube.

You are receiving this email because your student has work being displayed in this year's PAEA Youth Art Month Art Exhibit. This year's exhibit can be accessed by clicking the button below or by downloading the Artsteps app from the Google Play Store.

It's here and it's time! The official Class of 2021 yard/window sign designed by Student Body President Brenda Rodriguez-Leonardo and Vice President Messiah Allah-Divine. They are $8 for the sign and an additional $2 if you want metal stakes to place in the ground or zip tie it to a railing. If you are going to just place it in a front window or on a wall, you only need to buy the sign.

Fill out this form below NO LATER THAN FRIDAY, MARCH 12th.

Money is not due until they come in and an OUTDOOR "pick-up" event will occur once they are ready. We do not plan on ordering more than what is needed

Direct any questions to Mr. Corabi at [email protected] who is helping us do this and remember to use your name because sometimes, only school id's show up on his email.
