Rain? What rain? Let's go, Bulldogs!
Members of the community listened to an overview of the Capital Project proposition at last night's community forum, and had an opportunity to share their thoughts, ideas and questions. School administration, staff and Board members, as well as representatives from professionals involved in informing the project, were present to answer questions and provide clarification. Voting on the Capital Project Proposition will take place on Tuesday, April 16 from noon to 8:00 pm in the lobby of the Middle School Gym.
Thanks to the generous response from the community, The Prom Closet has received many donated items to fill our small room. To process these donations and allow enough time for proper sanitizing and inventorying, collection days will now be Tuesdays only. New item drop off dates will be April 16, 23, and 30. Thank you for your generosity!
Hope to see you tonight!

Due to the expected weather conditions, the varsity softball games scheduled for Wednesday, April 3 have been postponed.
A group of juniors involved in the Catskill Area School Study Council are launching The Prom Closet as a community service project. This free “prom shop” is intended to provide students with clean, cute, comfortable options for this spring’s prom. To succeed, their shop needs inventory, and so the students are calling on members of the community who have recent, clean prom clothing to donate it to the shop. They’re looking for dresses, suits, shoes, and dress shirts in good condition. Prom clothing can be dropped off at the school in the high school lobby on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 3:00-4:00 pm, beginning on Tuesday, April 9 and ending on Thursday, May 2. Help make their project a success!
The Capital Project 2024 - Physical Education and Athletic Fields Improvements proposition vote is coming up soon. Join us at the community forum, or visit the Capital Project Planning page on our school website for more information.

The full day leadership program presented by Commerce Chenango gathered 198 participants, including students from seven of the DCMO BOCES component school districts. Brinley, Leah and Natalie were nominated by their school, based on their interest and leadership qualities. It was an inspiring day!
