Every day, paraprofessionals make a difference in our classrooms. From providing individualized support to promoting positive behaviors, they are essential to overcoming challenges and enhancing student success. Each day this week, we will recognize and thank our paraprofessional teams across QCSD.
Today, we proudly recognize the team at Quakertown Elementary School. Thank you for your continued support of our students and teachers and for helping make each classroom a place to learn and grow.

“Meet The Instruments Night” and parent meeting will be held Tuesday April 21st from 6-7:00pm at Strayer Middle School. This event is for any student who might like to learn a musical instrument next year in the band and orchestra program! (Current band and orchestra students do not need to attend this event unless you are considering learning a new instrument.)
At "Meet the Instruments Night" your child will get to try out their top 3 instrument choices before you enroll in the program and get an instrument for them. Parents will also learn more about the QCSD band and orchestra program, get to meet the teachers, learn about instrument rentals, and ask any questions.
You must pre-register for this event, so we will know our anticipated attendance and can provide the correct amount of supplies (mouthpieces, reeds, etc.).
Please click the link below to register:

*Registering for “Meet The Instruments Night” does not enroll your child in the program. It simply allows the students an opportunity to try out the instruments before you rent, purchase, or borrow an instrument.
If you have questions, please contact your school’s music teacher. Visit qcsd.org/music and click the CONTACT page to find their contact information.
There’s an instrument for everyone, we just need to find the right fit for your child!

For over 40 years, March has been “Music in Our Schools” Month—a time when music education is celebrated nationwide.
The goal? To raise awareness of the importance of music education and highlight that QCSD students have access to valuable music programs.

Happy Read Across America Week!
Today, we are highlighting Quakertown Elementary 2nd grader, Gabby, for sharing her book recommendation, "A Bad Case of Stripes,” by David Shannon.
“My favorite part is when she turns into a gumball machine!” said Gabby, and she immediately showed the illustration. Gabby explained that the story centers around a little girl named Camilla Cream, who loves lima beans but doesn’t want to eat them. And as a result, she starts turning colors! “My other favorite part of the book is when she grows a cat tail!”
Thank you, Gabby, for sharing your love of “A Bad Case of Stripes” with us.

Happy Read Across America Week!
Throughout the week, students across the QCSD will be sharing and recommending their favorite books as part of the celebration.
Today, we want to thank fifth-grader Amina of Pfaff Elementary School for sharing her book recommendation, “Dork Diaries 16: Tales from a Not-So-Bratty Little Sister,” by Rachel Renee Russell.
Amina shared that the book is told from the perspective of the “not-so-bratty little sister.” She recommends it because it’s interesting and fun to see what Brianna, the little sister, writes in her older sister, Nikki’s diary. The book is super dramatic and packed with humor. Nikki is dealing with school, her friends, and a huge scandal when her sister gets hold of her diary and phone. It’s a nonstop, funny read, and if you have a younger sibling, this book is for you!

Today, we would like to thank fifth-grader Ember of Trumbauersville Elementary for sharing her book recommendation, The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau.
Ember shared that the story takes place in an underground city where everything is aging and beginning to fall apart, and the lights may soon go out forever. Although she has not yet finished the book, she is eager to discover what happens next. Will the lights go out, or will the main characters save the day?
