Message from the Head of School
Dear Goshen families,
Spring is in the air! Our lovely campus is coming to life after a long winter.
We love our outdoor space here at Goshen Friends. We hope you do, too! If you'd like to help us give it a good spring cleaning, please join us Saturday, April 27, from 9 a.m. to 12 noon for our 2nd Annual Community Clean-Up Day. We have lots of chores for those who are willing to help! We will be cleaning and mulching beds, planting flowers, planting potatoes in our Chester County Food Bank vegetable gardens, and doing other jobs here and there. Join us for the whole morning, or just for an hour or so. We appreciate the help! Light refreshments will be served.
Flyers will come home by backpack Tuesday and Wednesday this week. You can also
Please RSVP by filling out and sending in the bottom portion of the flyer. You can also RSVP by emailing me at

Just a quick reminder that school will be closed for spring break Monday, April 15, through Monday, April 22. Classes resume on Tuesday, April 23.
Have a great week!
In friendship,
