Welcome to Lower Salford!

Students Collect 1,000 pairs of shoes for needy
Lower Salford Elementary has a large commitment to teaching their students about social service and social justice. Each classroom devotes half of their seasonal parties to social service projects.
This year the fifth grade decided to hold a shoe drive for Soles4Souls, an organization that collects shoes and distributes them in the United States and across the world. Hughes Transport, a Lansdale based moving company, generously agreed to transport shoes to their destination in Alabama. Their partnership enabled the project to reach its full potential enabling participation by the entire school.
The fifth-graders gave up their recess to collect, bundle, box and count shoes. They collected over 1,000 pairs of shoes for the less fortunate. They also saved these shoes from being thrown away and filling up our landfills. It was a valuable lesson for everyone!
The fifth grade teachers are Kathy Madden, Galen Guengerich, and Susan Mandia.
Kidsville
An old school bell is mounted in the front foyer of Lower Salford, also known as Kidsville. In the early days of school, the principal would ring the bell to begin each day. Currently, our bell is rung to signal the beginning of each monthly Town Meeting. The bell is a way to preserve the history of the school while conveying a current message that matches our Kidsville Code.
