Lower Merion School District Strategic Plan Community Survey 

Dear Community Members, 

Lower Merion School District is currently engaged in an ambitious strategic planning process that will provide 
the framework for public education in our community for the next five years and beyond. Community feedback 
is critical in this process. We are asking community members to help us re-imagine our educational system, to 
ensure that we are doing all we can to prepare future generations of children for success. Please take a few 
moments to complete an online survey about our schools. We greatly appreciate your ideas and input. The 
information you share will help guide the work of our strategic planning steering committee over the next few 
months as we develop the District's plan for the future. 
To access the online community survey, https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/lmsdcommunitysurvey

Civil War, elite opinion tended to favor the Confederacy, while public opinion tended to favor the Union Forces. 
The Confederacy believed that British dependence on cotton for its large textile industry would lead to diplomatic 
recognition or military intervention. Learn about this riveting story with local historian Robert Bond. Advance

100 Conway Avenue, 2nd floor or call 610 664-2366.

Thank you to all who volunteer, donate and support ending hunger in our community. 

In order to facilitate donations to the Narberth Food Bank, the Narberth Community Library has become a Drop 
Off point for donations. There is a recepticle just inside the library front door, in front of the circulation desk. 
We hope this will make it easier for library patrons and other Narberth citizens to drop off much needed 
donations at a time that is convenient for them. The library is open from 10:00 to 8:00 - Monday thru Thursday 
and 10:00 to 5:00 - Friday and Saturday. www.NarberthCivic.org/news is now publishing a self-updating notice 
of items currently needed for donation to the food bank at the Narberth Family Resource Center. The needs 
change regularly, and so will this list. I hope this will facilitate more efficient giving. Please remember the food 
bank! Even just a few extra cans or items from 
a trip makes a difference. There is significant and regular need right here in Lower Merion & Narberth. Check 
out the article space in the top right hand column of NarberthCivic.org/news under Family Resource Center of 
Narberth. Thank you for your support!
