🎸📚 Totally RAD Reading at SES – 80s Day! 📚🎸
Today we threw it back to the 80s for Read Across America Week, and WOW — our students and staff absolutely rocked this dress-up day! From neon and leg warmers to big hair and bright colors, SES was looking totally tubular! 🌈✨
Today’s spotlight activity is our interactive “Guess Who” board! Students are trying to match popular books with various staff members — and they are LOVING the challenge! It’s been so much fun watching them study the clues, make their guesses, and get excited about the stories behind each book. 📖🔍
We are also SO proud of how hard our students are working toward our 40,000-minute reading goal! The excitement is building, and we truly appreciate all the support our families are giving at home. Every bedtime story, every extra 20 minutes, and every tracker colored in is helping us get closer to our goal. 💛
And let’s just say… students have been very enthusiastic today! Many have been asking Mr. Frederick and Mrs. Smith if they’re excited about getting pied in the face at the assembly. 🥧😄 That must mean they are DEFINITELY motivated and putting in those reading minutes!
Keep it up, SES! Let’s finish this week strong and read our way to victory! 📚🔥

🌈✨ Bright Colors, Bright Minds at SES! ✨🌈
Today at SES we celebrated Read Across America Week in the brightest way possible—by rocking our favorite tie-dye and neon to support our Bright Colors, Bright Minds day! 💛📚
Our students are already off to an AMAZING start toward our 40,000-minute reading goal, and the excitement is building. They are especially motivated for the chance to see some pie-filled faces at the end of the month! 🥧😄
Our halls are glowing with creativity, filled with colorful decorations that celebrate the joy of reading. Students are also loving our two “zoomed-in” interactive boards, where they study a close-up picture and try to guess the book it comes from. 🔍📖 It’s been so much fun watching them analyze the clues and share their guesses!
We are so proud of their enthusiasm and can’t wait to see how brightly we continue to shine this week. Keep reading at home and helping us reach our goal! 🌟

March Extracurricular Calendar! #ValleyProud #StudentInfluencerCameron
It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of former Cassadaga Valley employee and alumnus, Bryan Meder.
A proud 1975 graduate of Cassadaga Valley Central School, Bryan carried on a family tradition of service when he began driving bus for our district in 1977. For 37 years, until his retirement in 2014, Bryan safely transported generations of students, always greeting them with a steady presence and familiar smile. His love for high school sports kept him connected to the road and to students even after retirement, as he continued sub driving for extracurricular trips .
Bryan’s dedication, reliability, and care for the students and families he served will not be forgotten. He was an important part of our school community for decades, and his impact will be felt for years to come.
We extend our deepest condolences to Bryan’s family and loved ones during this difficult time.

🌟✨ LET’S GLOW FOR READING! ✨🌟
Our school is lighting up with excitement because Read Across America Week is officially underway! 📚💛
This year, our building-wide goal is to shine bright and reach 40,000 minutes of reading! 🔥 The more we read, the brighter we glow!
Here’s the extra fun part…
If we hit our 40,000-minute goal, a few of our highest individual readers will earn the chance to PIE our Principal, Mr. Frederick, and our School Nurse, Mrs. Smith, at our next assembly! 🥧😄
🖍️ Reading Trackers Are Coming Home!
Students will receive reading trackers to color in stars for every 20 minutes they read. Each colored star brings us one step closer to our 40,000-minute goal—so grab those bright and neon colors and start filling them in!
Let’s turn up the brightness at home, too! 🌈
We encourage all of our families to:
✨ Read together each night
✨ Create a cozy “glow zone” reading spot
✨ Track and color your minutes
✨ Help us shine past our 40,000-minute goal
Whether it’s bedtime stories, sharing a favorite book, or taking turns reading aloud, every minute counts. Let’s glow all in for reading and make this week shine! 💡📖

See attached flyer from Chautauqua Institution regarding seasonal employment opportunities for all types of jobs/skill levels! Working at Chautauqua is more than a seasonal job. It’s an opportunity to build meaningful connections, gain real-world experience, and explore career paths in a dynamic and mission-driven environment. Young adults and those exploring new professional directions benefit from daily interaction with leaders in the arts, education, hospitality, recreation, and nonprofit management. From networking with professionals and guest speakers to developing transferable skills in customer service, operations, leadership, and teamwork, employees leave with insight, confidence, and connections that last well beyond the season.
