Students in Mr. Matt Barkee’s Hospitality Business and Foods Management classes in the high school are receiving a much needed ingredient, eggs, from Westwind Farms right here in Ovid. “Eggs are a staple of many dishes the students prepare, and we are fortunate to be receiving assistance from the great folks at Westwind Farms”, says course instructor Mr. Barkee. Students have learned different egg cooking techniques such as frying, poaching, and hard boiling. Some of the dishes prepared already with the Westwind Farms eggs have included Country Style Omelets, French Style Omelets, Egg Salad, Shired or Baked Eggs, Custards, French Toast, Bread Pudding, Cheese and Chocolate Soufflés, and various cookies. The students thank Westwind Farms for their support!

Please be aware that we are scheduling periodic building drug searches, using law enforcement coordination. By the nature of the operation, these searches need to be unannounced. We know that the increased police presence at the building can cause community anxiety, and that news travels fast when it is noticed. Be assured that this has been planned well in advance, and there was not an emergency situation at school. At this time, the lock down drill is over and the regular school day has resumed.

The South Seneca High School Music Department would like to congratulate Luke Dendis (senior) on being selected as a member of the NYS School Music Association (NYSSMA) Conference All-State Symphonic Band. He joined wind, brass, and percussion students from across the state, working at a high level of artistry, for a weekend of rehearsals from December 1st through 3rd, culminating in a performance at the Eastman Theatre in Rochester on Sunday, December 4th, 2022. Conference All-State is the highest level ensemble in the NYSSMA organization. Students applying to take part in one of the 5 Conference All-State choral or instrumental ensembles must prepare a All-State level VI solo and score between 98-100 in order to be considered. After all recommended students are sorted numerically by score, the All-State Selection Committee reviews member school music teacher recommendations, adjudicator recommendations, the candidate’s previous NYSSMA Solo ratings, grade in school, zone representation, participation in the previous year’s All-State, and participation in other performing organizations. Approximately 600 students are accepted each year to participate in the Conference All-State groups. Luke scored 99 on his Level VI solo last May in Trumansburg and was selected for the Symphonic Band as a Clarinet 3 this year. He is one of the 34 clarinet players who were accepted to participate in this year’s All-State ensembles. The NYSSMA All-State Symphonic Band was conducted by Dr. Thomas McCauley, Director of University Bands for the John J. Cali School of Music at Montclair State University in New Jersey. Luke is currently a member of the High School Band at South Seneca.
