A Kona Ice crew joined district employees meeting teens on their 'home turf' before the school year begins
High school can be an intimidating space for new students, especially incoming freshman who are just adapting to their new surroundings. On Tuesday, Aug. 13, the Wissahickon School District aimed to ease some of those anxieties with the help of free Kona Ice.

The meet-and-greet crew went from Stony Creek Elementary School in Blue Bell, to the Ambler Borough Hall, and then to Penllyn Park in Lower Gwynedd Township to visit students in their own backyards. The teens were greeted in all three of the municipalities served by the Wissahickon High School.
