The latest information about the air quality in Central New York continues to trend in a positive way. As a result of this, we will be resuming normal activities, including field trips, in the SCSD on Friday, June 9, 2023.

Recent reports relating to the air quality in CNY indicate that tomorrow (6/8) we should see an improvement in air quality. Out of an abundance of caution, we are still going to cancel all outdoor activities incl. sports, recess, field trips, after school & evening activities.

Due to poor air quality, all *outdoor* after school and evening activities are being cancelled in the SCSD today (6/6). Athletic practices may be held indoors – student athletes are encouraged to check in with their coaches. The cancellation applies only to outdoor events.

(2/2) If you’re interested, the SCSD Office of Diversity, Equity, and Belonging is selling Pride t-shirts, which can be purchased through May 21st. Please click here to visit our online webstore: papas-sports.com/SCSD/shop/h…. Our #SCSDDiversity is what makes us great!

We love to see @SCSDCTE students becoming #SCSDCareerReady while taking the time to use their talents and skills to give back to others! @PSLAatFowler Cosmetology students recently traveled to @DelawareSCSD to host a Salon Day. (1/2)

Please be reminded that all SCSD schools and offices will be closed on Monday, May 29th in observance of Memorial Day. Due to the inclement weather days that were used this winter, please note that school will be open and in session for students and staff on 5/26, 5/30 & 5/31!
