Hello Roberts Families! As we come to the end of October, the Upper Merion Area School District plans to celebrate Red Ribbon Week. This is an annual event where schools in our district and across the nation focus on educating children to make smart, safe, healthy choices, battle peer pressure and say no to drugs and alcohol. Special events for each day of the week are outlined below. If you have any questions about this week, please contact Mrs. Gallagher at [email protected] or Mr. Grazel at [email protected].
