SAS ES National School Choice Week Parent Statement
Friday, February 7th, 2025: For National School Choice Week, we at Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary School asked some of our parents to tell us why they chose SAS and how they feel about it today. Avianni is about to graduate from SAS Elementary and follow in her sister's footsteps. See what her mother has to say about SAS!
"I was actually referred to SAS by my aunt, who worked there. She thought it would be a great fit for my daughter. I wasn't too happy with the school she was at and how the curriculum was going. I applied in September, and she was accepted in October. I was nervous & hesitant. I couldn't believe they were doing spelling tests in Kindergarten. Her teacher reassured me she would catch on, and she did. My daughter is now in 10th at the high school. She is in honors classes and taking some college courses as well. I have another daughter who is at SAS Elementary in the 4th grade, and she adjusted and has excelled very well in each grade. She will be graduating this year and on to middle school. The classroom sizes are small enough for the kids to receive the help they need. And the teachers are attentive & helpful with making sure each student does well."
