Students in Mrs. Schrader’s new Keystone class, “Life, Money and Success,” recently welcomed visitors from our very own Business Office! Shanda Clark and Marci Hadley helped students gain valuable, real-world knowledge by walking them through important employment documents, including the W-4 Federal Withholding Certificate, IT-2104 State Withholding Allowance Certificate, and I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification Form.
Students also learned about dependents and allowances, FSA cards, retirement benefits, health insurance benefits, and sick days—all important pieces of navigating the world of employment.
The class also learned about civil service employment as one possible pathway to explore after graduation.
We love seeing our students build practical skills and knowledge that will help prepare them for success beyond high school! 🎓
We appreciate the time, creativity, and positive energy they are putting into encouraging our Cougars to come to school, be ready to learn, and make every day count!
Their efforts are helping us celebrate our students and build a strong culture around the importance of attendance, learning, and Cougar Pride! ❤️💙🐾
This initiative supports our district-wide goal of improving student attendance and celebrating students and classrooms for being here and ready to learn each day. ❤️💙
📚 How It Works:
Each week, classrooms with great attendance will earn a Popcorn Ticket! These tickets will be displayed outside the classroom, similar to our classroom Good Behavior Tickets.
🍿 Monthly Popcorn & PJ Day!
At each monthly Leader in Me Assembly, the classrooms with the most Popcorn Tickets will have an opportunity to win a Popcorn & PJ Day!
Winning classrooms will:
✨ Enjoy delicious popcorn
🛌 Wear their favorite PJs to school
📸 Be featured outside the cafeteria
🎉 Celebrate their outstanding attendance together!
There will be one winning classroom from the PreK–1st Grade hallway and one winning classroom from the 2nd–5th Grade wing each month.
Let’s work together to make being here, being ready, and being successful a priority every day!
Great attendance = Great opportunities! 🐾🍿❤️💙
Thank you again, Ms. Nocero and Ms. Sterner, for helping our Cougars ROAR! 🐾

This is a scheduled training activity and there is no cause for concern. Just a reminder that the Cassadaga Valley School District has a close relationship with local law enforcement and allows the use of our facilities. If there was an actual emergency, the district will notify you.
