Dear Parents and Guardians,

In order to support Penn Manor families during the holiday season, we will be collecting the below items at each school throughout the district. If your family is able and willing to donate, we would very much appreciate your generosity! We will be collecting the items listed below between Tuesday, November 29th and Friday, December 9th.

Kindergarten – toothbrushes

1^st grade – toothpaste

2^nd grade – bars of soap

3^rd grade – combs/brushes

4^th grade- bottle of shampoo

5^th grade – bottle of conditioner

6^th grade – deodorant

If your family would like to provide more than is listed above and would like to make a monetary donation, please send the amount you choose by check to your child’s school secretary by December 9^th. Make your check payable to the Loft Community Partnership and on the memo line write “Holiday Gifts”.

In the event of winter weather conditions, sometimes our district has to operate on a delayed schedule or close due to driving conditions. In the event that school is canceled due to weather, you will be notified via email AND text (if you subscribe).

School closings and delays will also be reported on local radio and television stations before 6 a.m., whenever possible. They also will be posted on the district website, mobile phone app, and Twitter feeds. You can also call the inclement weather hotline at 872-9500, ext. 2333, to find out the status of Penn Manor schools.

When inclement weather conditions develop during the day, resulting in an early closing, parents will be notified via automated phone call. High school and middle school students will generally be dismissed first, followed by elementary students. Please note that phone calls will NOT be made for closings/delays announced before the school day begins.
