This spring, our Design Thinking teachers are launching an exciting project: students will reimagine old toys by building entirely new ones from used parts. What better way to give old toys new life while encouraging creativity and innovation?
How to help:
Donate your toys at the District Administrative Office —
100 Commerce Drive, Quakertown, PA 18017
Monday–Friday, 8 AM–4 PM
What is Design Thinking?
Design Thinking is a dynamic, hands-on learning approach that helps students become creative problem-solvers. It emphasizes empathy, real-world relevance, and iterative design — guiding students through a process of empathizing, defining, ideating, prototyping, and testing. By working on open-ended, real-life challenges, students build confidence, learn to consider diverse perspectives, and develop critical thinking skills. Design Thinking is often paired with Computational Thinking pathways — preparing our kids for college, career, and life beyond school.
Thank you for helping our students turn old toys into fresh, imaginative creations!

QE Panthers Shine for World Kindness Day!
On Thursday, our students lit up the halls in their sparkliest outfits, joined in kindness-themed activities, and helped organize donations from the QE Food Drive.
The Food Drive runs through November 21, so there’s still time to bring in canned goods, non-perishables, or gift cards. Last year we collected just over 1,000 pounds of food — let’s beat it and set a new record!
