In preparation for the Thanksgiving season, Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school hosted a Food Drive to benefit the Rescue Mission. We are excited to share that through the kindness and generosity of the students, teachers, faculty and staff that we will be donating hundreds of canned goods this holiday season!

We would like to thank all who helped make this event possible, and for all who participated. Thank you for ‘Putting love into Action,’ your donations will go a long way to help those in need. 

We hope all of our Atoms are having a very happy Thanksgiving!

Wednesday, November 10th, 2021—Syracuse Academy of Science high school juniors and seniors had an opportunity to attend a college information session, to learn about what life is like as a Daemen College wildcat.

During their college information session, students learned about the wide variety of programs offered at Daemen College and how students can move their dreams, visions and values forward and share their community and make meaningful contributions to society. In addition, Atoms also learned about Daemen College's admission process, how to apply for financial aid, and TRIO programs like EOP/HEOP. 

Thank you Daemen College recruiting representatives for taking the time to speak with the students about life as a wildcat.

Wednesday, November 10th, 2021—Syracuse Academy of Science 4^th grade students participated in a hands-on, minds-on science project that is so exciting it simply hertz! Earlier this month, students had an opportunity to create and construct their very own circuit system to learn about electrical energy. For this project students created closed circuits on a circuit board to learn how electrical energy from batteries can be used and converted into things such as: light, motion, and of course energy. Watt a fun and exciting science project, Atoms!

Wednesday, November 10th, 2021—Hold on to your forks and napkins because this is an awesome event that you certainly don’t want to miss! Earlier this month Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school students participated in a school coloring and drawing contest called, 'Color Your Plate.' For this contest, Atoms were tasked with drawing, and coloring the following:

• Listing two of their favorite fruits
• Which three vegetables that they eat every day
• What is your favorite kind of grain
• Favorite Protein
• Draw a drink you have at school

We are excited to share the winner of the Color Your Plate project is Priscilla, who won a special cooking lesson for her entire class with the Cafeteria Director, Ms. Pittsley! In addition, Priscilla will get to be the assistant chef to Ms. Pittsley. Congratulations Priscilla, and way to go Atoms!
