Friday, September 25th, 2020—While this year has been quite different for most, one thing remains the same. Syracuse Academy of Science strives to create an atmosphere that fosters student success and achievement. For our school this starts with our home visits. Something that is truly unique to our schools, teachers perform a minimum of twelve home visits each academic year. The goal of these home visits is to understand the student’s challenges and to create a better triad of parent-student-teacher relationships.

Teachers Ms. Figueroa and Ms. Martinez put their creativity to the test for their home visits this year. Keeping safety first, they conducted their visits outside in the beautiful weather, wearing masks and social distancing.

Monday, October 5th, 2020—To say we appreciate our teachers is an understatement. From their creativity, to answering the call of duty and going above and beyond, to guiding, educating and teaching our Atoms, and so much more. Today on World Teachers Day, we celebrate all that you do! Thank you for all your hard work each and every day.

Friday, September 11, 2020—Syracuse Academy of Science is excited to announce its first-ever boys high school soccer team. We welcome head co-head coaches Abu and Lossine Bility. Coaches bring with them years of experience, talent and an incredible true story of overcoming obstacles, perseverance and living out their dream.

“Life is what you make it,” words the twin Bility brothers live by. Before becoming a teacher at Syracuse Academy of Science, the brothers fled civil wars in both Liberia and Ivory Coast. Graduates of SUNY Brockport, they are reaching their dreams by starting the first-ever soccer team, while helping the students reach theirs both on and off the field. Starting a soccer team during a pandemic is no easy feat, but nothing they can’t handle. As of right now, all games will be played on the road, and the team is awaiting further guidance from New York State on the start date of high school soccer across Central New York. At Syracuse Academy of Science we are committed to the health and safety of all of our students and athletes, and will continue to follow the guidance for health and safety from New York State.

Thursday, September 17th, 2020—Keeping our students’ and their families' health and safety in mind, teachers flexed their creativity that would allow for their students to get a sneak peek at their classroom for the 2020 - 2021 school year. The teachers put together a virtual walk through of the classroom and shared the video with the student’s family. This year’s classroom theme is, The Adventure Begins. Students desks resemble baskets for hot air balloons, and are spaced out in accordance with New York State guidelines for health and safety.

Tuesday, September 8th, 2020—After months of planning, preparation and hard work not only by our teachers, faculty and staff, but to the Atoms and their families, we are excited to welcome back students for the 2020 - 2021 school year. Syracuse Academy of Science is adhering to the New York State Guidelines for health and safety. Students have the option of hybrid or online learning. We wish all of our students tremendous success and luck this academic year.

Today we honor those who lost their lives and families whose lives were tragically changed on this day 19 years ago. We thank all our brave first responders and active duty veteran military. United we stand.
