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

Questions? Visit narberthcommunityfoodbank.org

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 receptacle 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!
