Families-
I'm reaching out to inform you that we successfully conducted our third lockdown drill of the school year. The drill was conducted in collaboration with law enforcement agencies connected with our school. As always, support team members visited classes to check-in on students, reiterate this was a drill and thank them for their patience. Thank you again for your continued support!

Representatives from New Visions came to recruit for their programs yesterday. Traditionally, New Visions only came to speak with the 11th graders, but this year they invited our 9th and 10th graders to hear about the programs. New Visions is a one year, pre-college program geared towards highly motivated seniors. New for the 2024-2025 school year, they will be offering an Exercise Science & Human Performance program which will take place on the Ithaca College campus. This is in addition to their already established Engineering, Life Sciences & Medical Sciences programs.
Congrats to these shining Falcons! #foreverfalcons
Our students in Extended Day Ski Club are continuing to have a blast on the slopes!
MS BRAVES are teaching elementary students to be braver with the ABCs of being a superhero and helping others.
Middle Schoolers were working with our second graders for our BRAVES program (as an extension of our work with Sweethearts and Heroes), while our High Schoolers spent time with Pre-K for some pre-Valentine's Day cookies and cocoa. Fun day! #foreverfalcons
