It may be hard to believe, but today marks the end of our first month back at school. It was wonderful to see the outstanding turnout at our recent Meet the Teacher nights at all five schools. As always, we greatly appreciate your engagement and interest in your child’s educational journey.
As we flip the calendar page to October, we look forward to our students enjoying all that fall brings, from the crisp weather and the continuation of fall sports and activities to Halloween-themed fun, such as the annual Pumpkin Pops concert at the high school.
Ahead of the arrival of winter weather, we will be testing our emergency messenger system by sending out an Emergency Test Message (voice, text, and email) between 6 and 7 p.m. on Monday, October 3. If you do not receive the test message, please update your contact information on the Infinite Campus Parent Portal.
Also available on the Parent Portal are parent reports for last year’s NYS ELA and Math assessments for students in grades 3-8 (during the last school year) and NYS Science assessments for students in grades 4 and 8 (during the last school year).
A reminder that the district is once again offering low-cost Chromebook insurance through Worth Avenue Group. The cost is $32/year per device and, based on repair data from 2021-2022, we strongly encourage everyone to sign up. The deadline has been extended to October 7, 2022. Please click HERE for more details and all of the associated links.
Finally, the first issue of The Lanyard, the district’s monthly e-newsletter is now available. Click HERE to read about the start of the 2022-23 school year, with news about our new Pre-K students all the way up to our accomplished high school seniors. Our Sailors are off to an outstanding start!
Wishing you a happy and healthy weekend.
Regards,
Joseph E. Hochreiter
Superintendent
