You are encouraged to consult this handbook often so you will understand the rules and regulations as well as other important information pertaining to the school. While this handbook has the most pertinent information you will need to know, it is not intended to address every concern or issue you may have during a given school year. When this handbook does not give you the information you need, you should contact your building principal, counselor or a teacher for help. The School Board reserves the right to change and/or add policies at any point during the school year.

I’m looking forward to another school year with the students and staff of Keystone Elementary School. The Shared Values within the Keystone School District emphasize the importance of parent-teacher communication. It is extremely critical to your child’s success that a line of communication is developed between the home and school. Early contact to address questions and/or concerns can prevent unnecessary frustration later in the year. We hope you become and remain actively involved in the educational process and support our efforts at home.

Since the early days of the Boy Scouts of America, young Scouts have been in the outdoors exploring it’s beauty and all that Mother Nature has to offer. We are very fortunate here in the heart of the Laurel Highlands to have many camps and properties right at our fingertips. Although each facility is different; each has it’s own attractions that make it unique from the others while still providing a quality program to the countless number of Scouts and Scouters who enter each weekend. Dr. E. Urner Goodman the founder of the Order of the Arrow once said “The order is a thing of the Outdoors.” With this statement in mind Wagion Lodge #6 undertook the project to produce this guide and make it available to all units across the council.

The Lenn-Lenape Indians (meaning “original people’) lived in the area, seasonally, in villages along rivers and streams. Known as a peaceful farming and fishing tribe, they traded freely with settlers on their arrival in the 17th century. William Penn met the Indian Chiefs of the Delaware Nation on the land where Hilltown Village now sits. In those days, it was known as the "Perkasie Indian Town." Settlers, mostly Welsh Baptist, with the few Hugenots and English Quakers arrived in approximately 1700. They petitioned the King's Governor to establish a town in 1721. The Old Bethlehem Road (the Minsi Indian Trail), now called Hilltown Pike, was used from the year 1683 to travel from Philadelphia to the Durham iron mines.

  • Pennsylvania
    June 19881$!. 50 Pennsylvania The Keystone State's Official Fishing Magazine Expenditures for recreation and leisure in Pennsylvania have increased greatly during the past 20 years, and recreation and leisure industries have become an economic force that affects the quality of life and the economic well-being of a large number of Pennsylvania residents. Pennsylvania's Recreation Plan for 1986 to 1990 identifies many issues and policies to be followed by federal, state, regional and local agencies to meet the Commonwealth's recreational needs. This plan was prepared by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources, Office of Program Planning and Development, under the guidance of the Statewide Recreation Planning Advisory Committee and the Citizens Recreation Advisory Council. The Pennsylvania Fish Commission helped prepare this document as a member of the Statewide Recreation Planning Advisory Committee. A number of the major issues identified by this statewide planning document and its policies were developed for necessary action, and to provide guidance to the Commission in its efforts to increase fishing and boating recreational opportunities. The highest priority policy of the Commonwealth Recreation Plan is: ". to encourage adequate sources of funding to ensure that the park and recreation needs of Pennsylvania residents can be met." The Commission as an independent agency must provide most of its own funds by collection of fishing license fees and boat registration fees. The Commission has implemented steps to adjust these fees to realistic levels so that it can continue its present programs and meet the unanswered fishing and boating needs of the Commonwealth. Another priority need of the Commonwealth is to provide additional opportunities for recreation throughout the Commonwealth.
