French 4 and French 5 students recently completed a chapter book entitled Les Nuits Mysterieuses a Lyon. When surveyed, several of the students were dissatisfied with the ending of the book. Preferring an alternate ending and WRITING an alternate ending are two very different things. Two French 4 Independent Study students decided to tackle this problem. John Clinton and Carlos Kaskoun brainstormed several interesting alternate endings. However, Carlos took it a step further and began WRITING a new ending. This was no small task; it needed to be readable, in comprehensible French (level appropriate), and almost completely written (including dialogue) without the use of Google Translate (except for an odd word here or there). The NEW improved ending is 5 chapters long and will satisfy even the most discriminating of readers. FELICITATIONS (Congratulations) Carlos!
Our Spring Sports Teams are preparing for the upcoming season. Coaches will be holding pre-season workouts leading up to tryouts. Varsity/JV tryouts begin on March 13 and Modified (7 /8 Grade) begins March 20.
Sessions are open to students in grades 7-12.
Today we became aware of an online threat made on TikTok towards the District. We immediately contacted the Rensselaer County Sheriff’s, who worked with our SRO to fully investigate and found the threat to be unfounded. As a precaution, law enforcement were on campus at dismissal of both buildings. We encourage you to speak to your children about the importance of sharing information they might have about potential threats to our students, staff and/or school. All threats of violence, even if made in jest, will be taken seriously and they may result in law enforcement becoming involved. The safety of our students and staff remains our top priority. Thank you for your continued support.
