Responsibility Respect Caring Welcome to Boothwyn Elementary School. Boothwyn Elementary School is one of four elementary schools in the Chichester School District. We are located outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Our school houses approximately 300 students for Kindergarten through Grade Four. Our staff is dedicated to the success of each and every child in our school. Boothwyn Elementary is small and student-centered. Our teachers and support staff provide a nurturing and caring environment for our students. Students who attend Boothwyn receive many educational opportunities. We have many initiatives that are being implemented in our school: · We are proud to announce that our Kindergarten is now a full day program · 100 Book Challenge provides our students with trade books to read during our reading classes. · Our Kindergarten through 2nd grade curriculum incorporates Kidwriting to improve their Language Arts skills. · KidBiz and Study Island, web-based computer programs, bring currents events and differentiated instruction to our 3rd and 4th grade classrooms. · 8 Smartboards and a wireless computer lab allow us to integrate technology into our curriculum. · Study Island, a computer program to support Language Arts and Math, will be introduced this year. · Our Language Arts Program includes Shared and Guided Reading to provide “best practice” reading instruction. · We have many resources available at Destiny , our library online catalog. · We have received a grant from PDE to provide our school with a data driven Behavior Support Program. We now have a mascot, Eggbert the Eagle who provides positive support and motivation for our students. The Boothwyn educational program is supported by a variety of resource services and personnel. We have two reading specialists, two learning support teachers, an instructional support teacher, and a guidance counselor on staff. Speech and language support and occupational therapy are provided through the Delaware County Intermediate Unit. We have paraprofessionals to support our teachers and students in our classrooms. Certified Art, Music, and Physical Education teachers present a fully articulated program to our students. We have also recently added computer classes. Our first grade students participate in Health class. To enhance our music program, 2nd grade students learn to play the recorder and 4th graders have the opportunity to join chorus and hand bells. Concerts, an Art Show, Academic Ceremonies, Book Fairs, Fun Day, and many other annual activities complete the well-rounded education of Boothwyn students.
