South Seneca FFA middle school and high school students went to the national FFA Convention in Buffalo today! It was a tremendous experience and they represented our Falcon community with pride. #foreverfalcons

Students in the Local History class recently visited the Three Bears Historical Site, where they explored the rich history of Seneca County. During the trip, students toured the historic courthouse, where court is still held today, and the old jail, where inmates were once housed. They also visited several other important spaces within the complex, gaining a firsthand understanding of how the site has served the community for generations. The experience brought local history to life and helped students connect classroom learning to the places and stories that shaped our region! #foreverfalcons

Reminder: The District will be closed on Friday, May 22nd. This means that there will be no school for students or staff and all offices are closed. Athletic events will occur as they have been scheduled.

Our honor roll students from last marketing period. Let's hear it for these Falcons! 💛🖤

Join us tonight for our annual budget hearing at 6:30 PM in the MS/HS lower cafeteria.

At the beginning of May, the TC3 Ceramics students competed in the 37th annual Feats of Clay competition held at the Everson Museum in Syracuse. The team used their throwing and hand-building clay skills in the cylinder stack, mug production, no hands throw, blind fold throw, pot put, and team hand-building competitions. The South Seneca team placed 6th out of 34 teams. A fun time was had by all!

In April, our students in the high school Creative Crafts class traveled to the Corning Museum of Glass to experience glass blowing as part of their glass unit. Each student had the choice of creating a vase, drinking glass, or paper weight. Students learned various glass vocabulary, tools, and techniques. To further enhance this learning experience, students will create fused glass artworks in the classroom over the next couple of weeks! #foreverfalcons 💛🖤
