Despite the chilly temperatures this week, things are heating up across the district as we reach some exciting milestones. Our secondary students have officially wrapped up the second quarter, successfully navigating a demanding week of Regents exams and midterms.
With the books closed for the week, the district is shifting gears to celebrate our school community with a packed Friday night schedule. The Tiger Trackers Booster Club is hosting a "Green Carpet event" prior to the Boys Varsity Basketball game against Broadalbin-Perth. Over at the Middle School, our 7th and 8th graders will be celebrating their own milestone at the "Snowflake Shake" semi-formal.
