Adding 5th graders to middle school is a bad idea, The school environments are significanlty different. The school board lacks common sense and transparency

Remember these board members come election time. Institute an EIT, close a school and take meetings on adding a 450 housing unit on traffic-riddled Woodbourne Road? .

Please let the kids be kids and grow up slowly they don't need any added pressure

As a middle school teacher for almost 20 years, I can say without a doubt that this is a terrible idea.

Some of my nephews go to Neshamimy school district. There is enough peer pressure out there for kids, why push them to grow up faster.

There is too much of a gap in age difference. There is also too much exposure not only to the fifth graders, but for the higher grade to take advantage of them because they feel superior. This is a horrible idea and all that Neshaminy is thinking about is the money.

I want my opportunity to speak to this in front of the board. The public had a right to comment. This is NOT in the best interest of the students.

We do not support school district to put 5th graders to middle school. Please do not ruin our school district education system just because we want to save money for the district. This is not the best way. It will hurt our children.
