The NP OM program continues to grow! Twenty-six teams from fifteen different district schools will represent NPSD at the SEPA OM tournament on Saturday, March 1st at Temple Ambler Campus. On these teams there are 169 North Penn students, ranging from kindergartners to seniors, coached by 45 parent volunteers. Students from these schools are participating in the tournament: Bridle Path ES, Gwyn Nor ES, Gwynedd Square ES, Hatfield ES, Inglewood ES, Montgomery ES, Nash ES, North Wales ES, Oak Park ES, Walton Farm ES, York Avenue ES, Pennbrook MS, Penndale MS, Pennfield MS and North Penn HS.
Walton Farm Elementary School and Hatfield Middle School are recipients of the PA State Jumpstart Grant this year! As such, the membership and registration fees were paid for the three teams at these schools. In addition, the teams will receive a stipend for tools and supplies. Walton Farm and Hatfield were eligible for the grant because they have not had an OM team in the program for at least five years. We were happy to promote the NP OM program at these schools and support these teams! Many thanks to the PA State Odyssey of the Mind organization for sponsoring these grants!
