Ms. Broadhead’s Studio Art students are kicking off the new year in style, with planners they designed themselves! Using Canva, students combined creativity, organization, and graphic design skills to create personalized planners that reflect their unique artistic voices.

A huge shoutout to our Middle/High School Copy Center for bringing these designs to life in print! Now, students are starting the year organized, inspired, and ready to create.

Art isn’t just about what you make; it’s about how you plan, design, and bring ideas into the world. We can’t wait to see what these artists accomplish in 2026!

The January Middle/High School PTO meeting is next Wednesday, 1/21, at 6:00 PM! We hope you can join us!

3rd Planned Lockdown Drills – January 13th

On Tuesday, January 13, 2026 both of our buildings (MHS & SES) will conduct planned lockdown drills as part of our ongoing commitment to safety and emergency preparedness. New York State law requires public schools to notify parents about a planned lockdown drill to ensure safety and reduce potential trauma for students and staff.

These drills are scheduled in advance and provide an important opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to practice lockdown procedures in a calm and structured environment.

Following the drills, building administrators will meet with faculty and staff to debrief and identify practical ways to further enhance safety protocols.

If you have any questions, please contact the office at MHS or SES.

Attached is the January extracurricular calendar for MHS. Please contact the main office with questions!
