Friday, October 6th, 2023: 7th-grade Syracuse Academy of Science students took a trip to Big Don's Wild River Mini Golf for a competitive game of mini golf, laser tag and to find their way through the maze. Students were excited to get a break from the classroom and feel the fall air.
Friday, October 6th, 2023: Syracuse Academy of Science Middle School top Class Dojo earners for September were surprised with a dodgeball game! Atoms have worked hard to earn respect points, be on task, participate in class, and be positive citizens. October points, focus on the monthly character trait, Accountability!
Friday, October 6th, 2023: October is Manufacturing Month, and what better way to celebrate than with a field trip! Several of our high school students had a chance to take a tour of Byrne Dairy Inc. Atoms experienced the process of how many of our favorite dairy products are made, and learned about the vast number of career opportunities that the dairy industry offers.
Friday, October 6th, 2023: What happens when you put a bunch of Syracuse Academy of Science Atoms together? Just like magic, each Atom supports one another to make something bigger and better. On Friday, October 6, the Atoms got together to support our fall athletic teams and celebrate being part of Many Atoms One Family!
Thanks for your team spirit, and good luck this season, athletes!
Friday, September 29th, 2023: Each month, Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary celebrates a character trait that we hope to see all of our students exhibit! At the end of the month, one student from each class and special is selected to be the Student of the Month for best representing that character trait. For September, the character trait was Responsibility. At the beginning of the school year, the Social Emotional Team explained to students what it means to be Responsible. Responsibility means being dependable, making good choices, and taking accountability for your actions. A responsible citizen looks out for the well-being of others and understands we all have a part to play in making the world a better place. Last week, we announced the Students of the Month, and each one was given a certificate, a dress-down pass, and a pin to wear all day!
Here are our September Students of the Month! Help us celebrate them!
Wednesday, October 4th, 2033: College visits are an important part of the curriculum at Syracuse Academy of Science High School. That includes visiting college campuses and representatives coming to the high school to speak with students. This time, Canisius University and Elmira College representatives visited the school. Small groups interested in learning more about the colleges met with the speakers in the conference room. Both institutions are known for their small class sizes, allowing students to experience college life in an intimate learning environment.
Friday, September 22nd, 2023: Syracuse Academy of Science High School had another successful chess club meeting! With over 15 attendees and over ten scrimmages playing, pieces flew everywhere. Atoms practiced openings, reviewed the rules, and enjoyed the game's social aspect! Unfortunately, nobody was able to get the better of Mr. T, who remains unbeaten and has yet to buy a pizza party this year.
Can you beat Mr. T? The club always seeks more members! They meet every Monday from 2:30 to 4.
Wednesday, September 27th, 2023: Syracuse Academy of Science High School hosted Back to School night. Over 90 families joined teachers, staff, administrators, and coaches to celebrate the beginning of our 23/24 school year. This was a great chance to meet some new parents and allow students to show off what they have been up to this year!
Thank you to all who joined. Let’s make it a fantastic year.
Tuesday, September 26th, 2023: Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary is partnering with some awesome families to bring a Home/School Organization to our school! An HSO is just like a PTO, except with the acknowledgment that not all students are being raised by "parents." On Tuesday, September 26th, we hosted our first HSO meeting of the 2023-2024 school year! We had an excellent turnout and have some big ideas to get us started. We named the HSO the “Atoms Organization” and are excited to get this initiative off the ground!
Future Atoms Organization meetings will be held on the 4th Tuesday of every month at 5:00 p.m. We are always looking to hear from more families that might be interested in helping us out!
Monday, September 25, 2023: Check, Mate! Several Syracuse Academy of Science high school students participated in the first meeting of the Chess club. We love to see students getting involved on campus!
