For the past two years, Summitview has partnered with School Kidz, a company that assembles School Supply kits tailored to the supplies our teachers in each grade level request. Our binding contact with this company was signed before the redistricting plan for next school year was approved by the district and before schools closed due to COVID-19. Therefore, we will proceed with making School Kidz supply kits available to our families to purchase for next school year, but this purchase is completely optional.
School supply lists will be available at a later date for families that wish to purchase supplies on their own and for families whose child will attend a different elementary school next year.
If you are interested in purchasing a School Supply kit for your learner, orders can be placed directly through the School Kidz Teacher Tailored website - www.shopttkits.com You’ll enter our school account code – 61956 and press the magnifying lens to see the kits for Summitview. Please remember to order the kit for the grade your child will be entering next school year.
School supply kits will arrive at Summitview this summer and will be delivered to your child’s homeroom before the first day of school.
Again, it is suggested that only learners who will remain at Summitview for the 20-21 school year participate. Please contact our building secretary, Mrs. Ebersole, at pam_ebersole@wasdpa.org if you have any questions.
Just for fun, Mrs. Slick put an enrichment activity out for learners to share a video performing the Chicken Dance. Mrs. Slick put them together and here it is! Please note that different versions of the song were used so it was a challenge to perfectly sync the video!

This week, as we celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week, many of our Shark Learners and Families may be wondering how we can show appreciation to the teachers when we are not together. Here are some ideas to show our Shark Staff how much we appreciate them.
1. Have your child color a picture for their teacher in appreciation of their awesomeness and email it to them.
2. Take a picture of your child learning from home and send it to their teacher.
3. Write an email to your child’s teacher expressing your gratitude for all they’ve done this year, especially while adapting to remote teaching and learning.
4. Wear red on National Teacher Day, Tuesday, May 5, 2020 and share that you’re wearing red to recognize teachers on social media using the hashtag #RedForED (don't forget to include our's too - #SVSharks)
Wear your Summitview Spirit Wear on Friday, May 8, 2020 and share a photo with your child’s teacher.
Shout out to our awesome cafeteria staff, it's School Lunch Hero Day!
WAMS staff need your help! WAMS is currently working on a few projects for our students over the next couple of months and we would like your input. WAMS would like to gather your thoughts on the top five traits, skills, or attributes you would like for your son or daughter to develop by the time they graduate from WASHS. Please share your top five skills, traits or attributes in this survey: https://forms.gle/JyBdARMcVBd4NXJB8 Thank you for your time and support of our students. Have a great evening!
Message from Mr. Hedrick regarding Kid's Heart Challenge Thank you Gifts:
The Kid's Heart Challenge donations have been submitted to the American Heart Association. The American Heart Association has the thank you gift packages prepared, but they put a hold on shipping them to schools due to COVID-19. When the time comes they decide to release the thank you gifts and we are allowed locally, we will come up with a plan to distribute them! I apologize for any inconvenience. This was simply a product of our KHC Event's timing along with the school closure. If you have any further questions, please contact Casey Hedrick (casey_hedrick@wasdpa.org)
2019- 2020 Yearbooks are still available, cost is $5.00. Yearbooks can be ordered online through May 15, 2020. (Note: Paper orders with payment turned in to school have been submitted to Pictures Plus.) To order a yearbook, please click on or copy and paste this link into your web browser: https://orders.picplus.com/ordering/identify
We are in the process of coordinating delivery of the yearbooks and will be in touch with those who ordered regarding pick up! Please email your child's teacher to check if you have already ordered a yearbook.
Thank you to the Waynesboro Moose Club for donating a much needed shed to WASD and placed at Summitview. We are very grateful for their kindness!
Shout out to our sharks who participated in the Kids Hearth Challenge to benefit the American Heart Association. We recently learned that SV donations totaled $3,632.63! (Prizes earned will be distributed at a later date.) #SVSharks
Due to the official closure of Pennsylvania schools for the reminder of the school year, WASD will be reaching out to learners to pick up personal items from lockers or desks. However, we are honoring the stay at home orders until April 30th. WASD learners and families will be notified of pick up options in May.
Please visit this link to the WASD website for questions/answers about Planned Instruction.

Information from this afternoon's BoroBlast:
Beginning Tuesday, April 14, WASD will transition to Planned Instruction. We hope that most of our learners will be able to access Planned Instruction online but also understand that some families may require hard copy materials. Please visit the WASD Website News Feed section to review a frequently asked question document with additional information about Planned Instruction, grading, and attendance.
The district understands that every home learning environment looks different. Therefore, we are providing one hour of required instruction for each day, and two additional hours of enrichment per day. Planned Instruction is intended to be flexible in order to accommodate each family’s schedule.
Online learning will be delivered through Google Classroom. Your child’s teacher has already sent email information to families with directions for learners to access Google Classroom using Clever. Please contact your child’s teacher via email if you need assistance. If you did not receive an email, please contact the school office either by phone at 717-762-1191 x1800 or by emailing Mrs. Ebersole at pam_ebersole@wasdpa.org to provide an email address.
If you have previously requested paper enrichment materials, you are automatically on the list for new Planned Instruction materials. Building secretaries will be reaching out to families regarding pick-up time. If your child cannot access online learning materials and is not currently on the hard-copy list, please contact your child’s school at 717-762-1191 x1800 as soon as possible. Please use the enclosed log to keep track of what your child completes each day. A staff member will be in touch with your family once per week to check on your child’s progress and answer any questions. These materials include two weeks of activities for Planned Instruction. Families should follow the directions included with the materials to return to school by Friday, April 24.
Finally, please help us keep open lines of communication by checking your email daily as well as listening to voicemails left by school staff.
Thank you for your continued support. Stay healthy, and stay #BoroStrong!

WASD Superintendent Dr. Kline has coined a new hashtag, #BoroStrong! We would love to see our learners create an image displaying this hashtag! If your child would like to create a graphic, it should be submitted electronically to svsharks@wasdp.org, be the size of an 8x11 sheet of paper, and consist of a white background with a 1 or 2 color design. Please include your child's first and last name, grade, and school. Designs will be used for social media posts and other communications from the district.
