Attention parents, students, staff, and teachers: it's officially "back to school" season! While the Warren County School District provides all necessary student materials for the start of the year (crayons, colored pencils, markers, etc.), the Snell Family Foundation is happy to assist in providing extra supplies and/or school supplies to be used to support students at home as well. On Friday, August 18th, the Snell Family Foundation will be distributing "back to school" packs from the Snell Main Office located at 625 S. State Street in Warren, PA. If you are in need of extra/additional school supplies (beyond those provided by the school) for your student, please email tessa@snellffi.com to secure your pack and to coordinate a pickup time! In your email, please specify how many students you have that would like additional supplies. Each "back to school" pack will contain a variety of the following items: pencils, pens, markers, crayons, colored pencils, highlighters, dry erase markers, small scissors, and hand sanitizer. Packs will be offered until supplies run out. The Snell Family Foundation wishes all students, staff, and teachers a wonderful start to the 2023 school year!

2023 P-EBT Information for Parents and Families
Linked below are the PEBT Summer 2023 Family Guide and P-EBT FAQ Sheets.
- Family Guide: https://5il.co/2007f
- FAQ: https://5il.co/2007d
Please note that the Department of Human Services (DHS) has a new P-EBT Inquiry Portal at https://www.pennebt.com/en/. Do not use any previous links.
The inquiry portal allows parents to submit specific questions to DHS about their child’s PEBT benefits. This is separate from the Parent Portal where parents may look up whether their child is eligible for P-EBT and request a replacement card. Descriptions of these two resources along with others such as the DHS P-EBT family hotline number are included in the Family Guide.

June is Internet Safety Month so we wanted to highlight an article that takes a deep dive into four of the most popular social media apps that students may be inquiring about or already using. Introducing your child to social media provides useful information about the risks and positive features of these apps. Parents will discover expert advice on how to develop ongoing conversations with children about social media platforms, the risks and benefits for teens with actionable steps on how to keep online safety top of mind.

For those who are unaware, there are a number of wildfires currently burning in Quebec, Canada. The smoke from those fires is drifting south to the United States, causing hazy skies and a decline in air quality.
Since wildfire smoke may pose health concerns to certain populations, the Warren County School District is following the recommendations based on air quality data provided by AirNow, the official U.S. Air Quality Index (AQI). The AQI is a color-coded index designed to communicate whether air quality is healthy or unhealthy for you and recommend steps to protect your health.
You may visit AirNow at www.AirNow.gov, enter your zip code, to see what the AQI value is.
The district and its schools will be following the recommendations based on the AQI through the remainder of the school year. Be aware that conditions may be different in different parts of the county.
