A Message from Home & School
Spring is coming this weekend - are you excited? Home & School sponsored another school assembly in March - a visit from the Elmwood Zoo. Spirit Wear and Yearbook sales are going on now. Coming up in April will be Breakfast with a Buddy - a before school social where students can bring a guest for breakfast. We are also busy planning May events like 4th Grade Pennsylvania Day, 5th Grade Trips to Philly & Arrowhead, and our Marathon Madness year-end celebration.
As you know, Home & School is powered by volunteers and there's a place for YOU. Please reach out if you'd like to get involved - there's so many ways and times to help.
Have a wonderful Spring Break!
Julie Finnegan, President

Spirit Wear Sale
What a Crock Fundraiser
St. Patrick's Day is coming! Why not spend less time in the kitchen and more time celebrating? You can snag some deliciously easy to prepare dinners, cookies, soups, desserts, strombolis, and much more from our Marketplace Fundraiser! Head over to our group's page to place your order.
PWE Night Out @ Philadelphia Union Game
Outdoor Lunch - Volunteers Needed!
Marathon Madness - Volunteers Needed!
We've had to cancel many weeks due to lack of volunteers. Please consider signing up now that the weather is warming up. Shifts have changed to just one hour for K-1, 2-3, and 4-5. No running necessary - just come and cheer on the students! Sign up to volunteer here.
Yearbook Information
Yearbook Ordering
ATTENTION Penn Wood families! The 2021-2022 Yearbook is officially on sale! Order forms are active on Membership Toolkit. You can access the order form by clicking this link after you log in OR by following the directions below.
To access the Yearbook Order form:
- Log into pennwoodhsa.com
- Click on "My Account"
- Click on "My Forms/Paperwork"

We do recommend ordering a yearbook for each student as often the kids like to sign their friends' yearbooks during the last week of school. Reach out to pennwoodyearbook@gmail.com with any questions!
Call for Photos!
Please forward any pictures you have to pennwoodyearbook@gmail.com. Please indicate grade and/or class, if possible. Listing student names would be an added bonus! This information will help us organize candids on the appropriate class page.
