Friday, December 10th, 2021—Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school makes it a December to remember with their annual Door Decorating contest. This year, classrooms were tasked with coming up with their own theme and of course decorating their door. Let’s just say the creativity was ‘otter this world,’ and left you walking in a winter wonderland.
Congratulations to Ms. Figueroa's kindergarten class for being named the 2021 Door Decorating Contest winner, with their door theme of Learning in a Winter Wonderland.
Sunday, December 12th, 2021—Last weekend Mr. Yaman's Congressional Awards students headed out to the greater Syracuse community to not only lend a hand, but to ultimately make a difference (and an impact) this holiday season to over 200 families at the Blessing Box CNY Food Distribution event - a local organization aimed to help fight hunger.
During the event, Atoms helped sort various household items, non-perishable food items, personal hygiene products, hats and mittens into boxes and bags for those in need to pick up and take with them.
Thank you Atoms for helping make a difference in our community. Keep up the great work, and we look to continue hearing (and seeing) the ways you have made an impact in serving the greater Syracuse community.
Tuesday, November 30th, 2021—Earlier this week, Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school recognized its November Students of the Month for demonstrating the character trait of Citizenship, and were always willing to help, and contribute in the classroom.
We would like to congratulate the students selected for November's Student of the Month ceremony! Keep up the great work and remember to tune in each month as we share, and celebrate the students selected for our monthly Student on the Month celebration. Each month, students will be recognized for their demonstration of that month's character trait. Keep up the great work, Atoms.

Friday, November 12th, 2021—At Syracuse Academy of Science Charter Schools we believe that college is for everyone! In fact, it's never too early to start talking to your Atoms about colleges, universities, and the variety of degrees and programs available.
In mid November, Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school hosted its own college week, where the teachers, faculty, and staff decorated their own pennant highlighting their alma mater, their school's mascot, and their degree.
We invite you to click here to watch their short video presentation for College Week!
