It’s NY Thursday! Our farm-to-school lunches this week featured Corn Chowder made with sweet corn from Tyler Hymer, BLT sandwiches using heirloom tomatoes from Pristine Acres Farm, Rice Bowls with feta cheese from Painted Goat Farm, and Creste Di Gallo with Kale Pesto, with ingredients from the Catskill Pasta Company and Chicory Creek Farm. We also had Dragon Noodles, with ground pork from Catskill Food Company and green onions from East Brook Community Farm. So many tasty options!
Transportation Director Greg Verspoor reminds us that with the start of the new school year, we all need to be extra careful around stopped school buses.
Take a look at these great after school programs from the Delaware Academy PTA!
The boys and girls cross country teams (varsity and JV) had a great run yesterday at Unadilla Valley. They'll be running again this Saturday, when they compete in the pre-state meet at Vernon Verona Sherrill in Vernon, NY.

Remembering those we lost 22 years ago on 9/11.
It's back-to-school time for some area farms, too! Our school lunches have featured several specialty dishes already, including Bean and Bacon Soup, with slab bacon from Catskill Food Company, black and pinto beans from Samuel Weaver, white potatoes and carrots from Chicory Creek, and plain chevre cheese from Painted Goat Farm. Today's NY Thursday dishes included Lemon Garlic Chicken, with chicken from Greenane Farm, garlic and parsley from Chicory Creek, and unsalted butter from Family Farmstead, served with white potatoes and carrots from Chicory Creek. There were also Chickpea and Goat Cheese Rice Bowls, with local goat cheese from Painted Goat. Delicious, and local!

Monday was Universal Pre-K and Kindergarten Roundup at Delaware Academy Elementary School. Our youngest Bulldogs came with their families to meet their teachers and classmates. What a fun morning!
It was Orientation tonight for 9th Graders and their families! Staff greeted the new high schoolers, who received their schedules and locker assignments, learned about pathways to graduation and extracurricular opportunities, and had the opportunity to find their new high school classrooms. Great job, everybody!
Delaware Academy officially welcomed new teachers and staff to the Bulldog family today, with a day-long orientation session. The group took part in a number of activities and experiences, including a school bus ride around the district! Later, teachers enjoyed lunch with their teacher mentor– an experienced DA teacher who can provide additional support and guidance to their new peers. This enthusiastic group is looking forward to the start of school next week!
Delaware Academy is once again the site of training for corrections officers from Delaware, Otsego and Sullivan Counties. The summer Delaware County Law Enforcement Academy is one of the ways that the school is serving the greater community, while also enhancing school security through greater familiarity with the campus among area law enforcement agencies.
Okay, 6th Graders– mark your calendars!
