FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT:BETH SLAVISH JANUARY 22, 2017 maryes51@aol.com 19 Area Schools Participate in the Phillips’ Mill Community Association’s 4th Youth Art Exhibition The Phillips’ Mill Community Association is pleased to announce that it has hosted its 4th Youth Art Exhibition which began January 21. In its first year 9 schools participated. Last year, the number of participating schools was up to 14 and this year with all 14 schools returning and an additional 5 schools joining the exhibition the number has climbed to 19 schools. These schools are located in Bucks and Montgomery Counties as well as Mercer and Hunterdon Counties and include both public and private schools. “We are excited to see the number of schools electing to participate in the show grow each year. This year’s show exhibits works by approximately 150 student artists. The exhibition is free for the schools and the artists, no commission on sales is charged and there is no admission fee. There is no other show like this in the area. We hope to see even more visitors this year.” Said, Kathy Schroeher, co-chair of the 2017 show. The Youth Art Exhibition was conceived when Phillips’ Mill decided to build on the success of its well respected adult Art Exhibition now in its 88th year. As the adult show seeks participation from artist living within a 25 mile radius of the Mill, the Youth Art Show solicits participation from the art departments of high schools located within a 25 mile radius of the Mill. This year the 19 participating schools include Central Bucks East (Buckingham, PA), Central Bucks West (Doylestown, PA), Council Rock High School North (Newtown, PA), Council Rock High School South (Newtown, PA), Ewing High School ( Ewing, NJ), The George School ( Newtown, PA), Hillsborough High School (Hillsborough, NJ ), Holy Ghost Prep ( Bensalem, PA ), Hopewell Valley High School (Hopewell, NJ ), The Hun School (Princeton, NJ ), Hunterdon Central High School (Flemington, NJ), Neshaminy High School ( Langhorne, PA),New Hope- Solebury High School (New Hope, PA), The Pennington School (Pennington, NJ ), Princeton Day School ( Princeton, NJ ), Solebury School ( New Hope, PA), Stuart Country Day School (Princeton, NJ ), Upper Dublin High School (Upper Dublin, PA )and West Windsor-Plainsboro South High School (Plainsboro, NJ ) This year, the Art Department at each school was asked to select 6 two-dimensional pieces and 2 three- dimensional pieces of works for the exhibition. The exhibited art includes painting, watercolor, collage, pastel, graphite, digital art, photography, ceramics and sculpture. Cash prizes were determined by this year’s juror artist Pat Martin and over $2,500 was awarded to winning students. The Youth Art Exhibition is open to the public on the following weekends in January and February 2017. January 22, 28 and 29 and February 4, 5, 11 and 12. The exhibition is open from 1:00PM to 5:00PM and is held at the historic Phillips’ Mill, 2619 River Road, 2 miles north of New Hope, PA.

The Earliest Evidence of School Consolidation in the Neshaminy
THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION AND THE BEGINNINGS OF THE NESHAMINY SCHOOL DISTRICT EDWARD E. TERMYNA III Fall 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Secondary Education with honors in Secondary Education Reviewed and approved* by the following: David A. Gamson Associate Professor of Education Thesis supervisor Scott A. Metzger Assistant Professor of Education Honors adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College i ABSTRACT The Neshaminy School District is a school district to the northeast of the city of Philadelphia. The School District was formed in 1950 from the consolidation of six other local districts, including Middletown Township, Langhorne Borough, Langhorne Manor Borough, Hulmeville Borough, Penndel Borough and Lower Southampton Township. The process of consolidation was slow as these districts joined together one by one, with the hope of better schools for their students. The process began in 1922 when Middletown Township and Langhorne Borough constructed a joint board agreement, and ended in 1950 when the last of the school districts, Lower Southampton Township, joined the joint board agreement. The process of consolidation in the Neshaminy area was aided by a few trends, with the most significant being the public’s interest in better high school facilities. Langhorne- Middletown High School, the only high school in the area, was largely inadequate from the 1930’s up until the 1950’s. The public wanted better facilities for their students, and in order for the districts to afford this, consolidation was necessary since none of the districts could afford to finance building projects on their own.

We greatly appreciate the positive and professional attitude displayed by school staff and administration. The visiting team found the administration, teachers, staff, and parents to be most cooperative and willing to discuss all aspects of Neshaminy’s academic enrichment programs. Graciousness, openness, and hospitality were evident throughout the three-day visit, making our jobs much easier and allowing us to collect useful information. While conducting more than 150 individual and group interviews and classroom observations in every school in the district, the team collected information in a variety of areas and provided detailed answers to specific questions, along with overall program strengths, needs, and recommendations. Team members identified program needs and made practical recommendations by applying their experience in the field to the on-site data collected, realizing that local conditions will determine local action. Team members were pleased to have been a key part of this program improvement process. We wish you continued success in what is probably the most significant activity for today and tomorrow – educating our children.
