Wednesday, October 25th, 2023: A week has passed since Otto the Orange surprised Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary and invited us to join his Reading Challenge! You “Otto” believe our Atoms are already doing an outstanding job! Walls are filled with footballs, indicating all the books our students and classrooms have read. We are even getting pictures sent in from students reading their books at home. 

It's plain to see that SAS is super pumped to dominate this reading challenge!

Friday, October 20th, 2023: We’re continuing to pave the path to success for our Syracuse Academy of Science Atoms. A representative from Utica University visited campus to teach students about the college, the admissions process, and what majors and courses they offer.

College visits are a large part of the curriculum as a college preparatory school. Stay tuned for more visits from colleges!

Tuesday, October 17th, 2023: Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary Atoms received a special surprise when Otto visited! Otto came straight from the Syracuse University campus to tell our students about his fall reading kickoff. Teachers can read with their students, or students can read by themselves, with friends, or at home and keep track of how many books they’ve read. Each grade level has a different goal. Once that goal is met, the class will receive complimentary tickets to the Syracuse Orange V. Wake Forest football game, free bookmarks, and special recognition at the game!

Saturday, October 14th, 2023: Syracuse Academy of Science Middle School participated in the Steamboat Challenge at the Museum of Science & Technology. With hard work and commitment, the Proton Paddlers received 4th place. Congratulations to the winners, Liam, Solomon, and Jeremiah, and all the middle school participants!
