Dear Parents/Guardians,

We are happy to announce that the Treehouse Peer Support Group will be returning to the Pennsbury Middle School campus for the 24-25 school year.

Treehouse staff will be facilitating a support group at each of our middle schools for students who may be experiencing a hardship or struggle in their lives. The goal of the peer support group is to create a space where students feel safe sharing what’s going on in their lives and receive support from peers and adult leaders (see the attached flyer). The group will meet one time per week during the school day throughout the school year. If you are interested in having your child participate in the Treehouse Peer Support Group please click this link Treehouse Permission. Groups will begin on Tuesday October 1st, 2024.

If you have any questions please reach out to your school social worker.

1. PIAA Sports-Students in 7th and 8th-grade need a PIAA physical form in order to participate in school-sponsored sports.
2. Clubs/Intramurals-Any student is welcome to participate in a club or intramural. These happen throughout the year based on student interest and staff schedules. Clubs and intramurals will be shared on our morning announcements. They will also be posted on our Daily Announcement slide show that can be found via our school website. Students must have a signed permission slip in order to participate in a club or intramural.
3. Students can take a late bus home. On Tuesday and Thursday we have a 4:00 PM or 5:00 PM late bus. This will be determined by the club facilitator. Most sports teams practice until 5:00 PM. Coaches will communicate practice and game schedules. Please review the late bus run information below. Just a reminder, that the stop may not be the same stop that they would typically take in the AM or PM.
