Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, begins on Wed, March 22 & continues through April 21, ending in the holiday Eid al-Fitr. Ramadan is a significant month for many Muslim people that involves prayer, fasting, spending time with family & friends & more. #Ramadan

World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD), March 21, is a global awareness day which has been officially observed by the United Nations since 2012. The date for WDSD being the 21st day of the 3rd month, was selected to signify the uniqueness of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome. #WorldDownSyndromeDay

There will be no school and the district offices will be closed on Wednesday, 3/8 in observance of the Holi Holiday. It's a day off but it's also an opportunity to learn about the Hindu holiday celebrated by so many in the Schenectady Community.

There was a mistake on the school calendar: tomorrow there WILL be after-school. Next Tuesday, March 14th there is no after-school. Also, there will not be after-school on Friday, March 17th as it is Superintendent's Conference Day (No School for Students).

Thank you to all our maintenance workers for their hard work and dedication keeping our schools safe and running smoothly. We appreciate all you do!
