The event featured:

- A make-your-own scarecrow experience
- Pumpkin painting and pumpkin scratch art
- Farm-themed yard games for the whole family
- Balloon artist and face painter
- Photo opportunities to capture memories
- A birthday cake to celebrate the 40th anniversary

The community was invited to join the school and celebrate as students, families, and staff celebrated four decades of learning, fun, and growth.

Chesterbrook Academy was founded in 1985 on the historic Chesterbrook Farm in Pennsylvania, owned initially by railroad executive Alexander J. Cassatt. In 1985, it was transformed into a preschool, marking the start of Chesterbrook Academy. The school quickly distinguished itself by offering high-quality, curriculum-based preschool education rather than traditional daycare services. Since the very start, Chesterbrook Academy has fostered academic excellence, character development, and a lifelong love of learning. For more information, please visit their website.
