Friday, September 2, 2022: While the students are away, the teachers will play! During the last two weeks of summer, Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary School teachers participated in the summer institute. The event was full of training, team building, and fun! We also celebrated our outstanding teachers and staff at SANY, no matter how long they have been here! We are so excited to be back to school!

Thursday, June 23rd, 2022—On the last day of school, it is a tradition at Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school for teachers and staff to line the parking lots and wave goodbye to all the students.

We hope all of the Atoms are having a wonderful summer vacation. We look forward to welcoming them back to school in a few short weeks. Keep your eyes peeled for the back-to-school lists, uniform ordering reminders, and open houses.

Thursday, June 23rd, 2022—School may be out for summer, but we are flashing back to the last day of the 2021 - 2022 school year! Syracuse Academy of Science middle school students celebrated the last day of school in style by wearing their class shirts and participating in both indoor and outdoor games. From water balloon activities to Kan Jam, to Giant Jenga to arts and crafts, there was fun to be had (and memories to make) with friends and classmates.

Friday, June 3rd, 2022—It looks like we have some fashion experts' in the midst, as the Syracuse Academy of Science elementary schools students 'Dress to Impress' for their Fun Friday theme.

To celebrate the last month of school, students had an opportunity to participate in the Fun Friday theme each Friday. For Dress to Impress, Atoms could dress in their favorite outfits highlighting their unique styles. In true Atoms fashion, everyone looked absolutely radiant.

Wednesday, June 15th, 2022—It was a beautiful day for a Field Day. In mid-June, Syracuse Academy of Science held its annual Field Day event to celebrate all the students' hard work and success this school year. Students in each  grade level wore their specific color when participating in this annual event.

This outdoor celebration included games, activities, bounce houses, face painting, relay races, and more, allowing the students to beat the heat and spend time with their friends and classmates. No field day is ever complete without a cookout and outdoor picnic. Thank you, Ms. Robinson, for grilling up some delicious hot dogs for the Atoms to enjoy!

While this day was a blast for the Atoms, who said Field Days were only for the students? To conclude this annual event, teachers, faculty, and staff had their own fun with a mini water balloon fight! This was the perfect way to end an incredible year with the Atoms.

We want to take this moment to thank all of our teachers, faculty, and staff who helped make this Field Day event possible and our parent volunteers who came out to enjoy the day and helped out too! 

We hope our Atoms are having an incredible summer. We look forward to seeing you in a few short weeks! Please click here to visit our Facebook page for additional pictures of the Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school Field Day event.

Friday, May 27th, 2022—Before we get ready to introduce this next event, let’s give the Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school students some snaps! In May, the Atoms were busy learning all about poetry including its various types and styles. To conclude their unit, students were tasked with creating a poem of their very own written in whichever style they preferred for a Poetry Slam competition. The winners of the poetry slam would be selected to read their poem aloud for the whole school to hear during the morning announcements.

We invite you to please click here to listen to the three Poetry Slam winners!

Friday, May 27th, 2022—One of the many benefits of working with SANY is allowing teachers, faculty, and staff to pursue and help them with their education dreams.

As we dedicate this ‘Flashback Friday’ to our Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school teachers and Dean of Elementary, we want to thank them for all their hard work throughout the year. This year, Mrs. Miller, Ms. Fogarty, and Ms. Crouse completed their Master's Degrees at Mercy College.

Please join us in congratulating our teachers and the Dean of Elementary! We are all so proud of you and all that you accomplished.

Tuesday, June 21st, 2022—As the 2021 - 2022 school year came to a close, Syracuse Academy of Science middle school hosted one last event for the year, the end-of-year Academic Fair! This year's fair allowed the Atoms to showcase all their hard work, talent, and creativity. Students in each class were asked to create a poster board and present on a specific topic.

Mrs. Swidowski's science class students displayed science fair boards and Google slide research projects on various topics. Some of these topics included how to make a homemade lava lamp, water absorption, tooth decay from fluids we drink, and much more.

Miss Catanzarite's social studies class created information boards on world religions. Some of these religions included Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Buddhism.

In addition to these incredible informational projects, the Academic Fair proudly displayed artwork from the students. Please click here to visit our Facebook page to view additional pictures from the Syracuse Academy of Science middle school’s end-of-year Academic Fair.

Monday, June 13th, 2022—We all know moving to a new place can be very challenging and sparks many questions, especially when transitioning from elementary to middle school. To help ease the burden and anxiety, Syracuse Academy of Science elementary school students had an opportunity to visit and tour the middle school prior to their Moving Up ceremony.

During their trip, Atoms spent the morning visiting classrooms and meeting the 5^th-Grade teachers. Students also asked many questions about what they can expect and anticipate for next year as middle school students.

The highlight of their visit to Syracuse Academy of Science middle school was seeing the Spanish classroom and, of course, the Cafeteria!

Friday, June 3rd, 2022—Syracuse Academy of Science high school hosts its annual Students vs. Staff soccer match each year. This friendly (yet competitive) game has been a favorite among the students and the staff. Year after year, the staff have always proved to be victorious. Will this year follow the same trend? Let's find out!

Leading up to the last week of school, Atoms and the Syracuse Academy of Science high school staff headed to the Syracuse Indoor Sports Center for their time-honored tradition of the Students vs. Staff soccer match. To prepare for this annual competition, the staff had to call on a bit of reinforcement (aka Atoms alumni) to keep their winning streak alive. After weeks of practice, warm-up drills, and stretching, the staff once again proved to be victorious amongst the students with a final score of 11-9.

We want to thank Mr. Bility for organizing this year's Students vs. Staff Soccer Match; Mr. Tabbara, Mr. Usher, and Mr. Cummings were the game's MVPs. All your hard work certainly has not gone unnoticed; thank you! We also want to give a quick shout-out to everyone who was able to show their support during this time-honored Syracuse Academy of Science high school tradition. We wish the Atoms the best of luck next year!
