Although there is much to do in preparation for the close of a school year and for some, a commencement, it is so refreshing to see that student energy that arrives in the spring. It is election week at the high school and many of our student leaders are campaigning for the opportunity to represent their classmates as Senate Officers and Student Council Representatives. The big election is today, and we wish them all the best of luck!
The “busy” is just beginning. Please see the following important dates and information.

Mock Crash/Yearbooks/Senior Ball
On Friday, June 4, 2021 seniors will have a shortened day in preparation for their Senior Ball. Students should report to their first period class for attendance. BOCES students, remote students, and late arrival students should report to cafeteria 1 for attendance. Following attendance students will get information about the Senior Ball and then move to the front of the building for the Mock Crash, led by Officer Nightingale of the Camillus Police Department. This can be an emotional presentation, and our school counselors will be available for students, if needed. Following the Mock Crash students will be dismissed. Yearbooks will also be available for pick-up at this time. More details regarding the Senior Ball will follow soon!
Remote Instruction Materials Drop-off
- On Wednesday,June 16, 2021 remote students may return their instructional materials. The drop-off will include a drive through Chromebook and charger return area and a second area for textbooks and other instructional materials. All areas will be set up on the west side of the building, at the technology office, and atrium entrance.
The drop off will be available during school hours, 7:45 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
Regents Exams
Report cards were mailed out last week with a letter about our upcoming Regents examinations. Although New York State is only offering four Regents exams this year, it is important to know that students are only allowed to take the exemption if they are passing the course in which the exam is offered. The four exams offered are Earth Science, The Living Environment (Biology), Algebra 1, and English Language Arts. All students wishing to take the exemption for their exam day will need to return the waiver in the letter by May 24. The letter is attached here.
The Local/Regents Exam Schedule for the last two weeks of June is as follows (click here to view the schedule in a printable PDF format):
We hope that you are able to enjoy the beautiful weekend ahead.
Sincerely,
Tracy Klefbeck,Thomas Vaughan, and Maura White
