Students from the Middle School History Club and Senior Government class joined forces this week to create thoughtful gift bags for the Cassadaga American Legion Post 1280. Each bag was filled with notepads, pens, stickers, and thank-you notes — small tokens of appreciation for the men and women who have served our country.
We were honored to welcome Charles R. Jones (U.S. Army) and Richard J. Haase (U.S. Marine Corps) from the Legion, who stopped by to accept the gifts on behalf of the American Legion for their Veterans Day Dinner on Sunday, November 9th.
Also pictured are Mr. Daniel McNeill, MHS House Principal, and Mrs. Tina Richir, Social Studies Department Chair, who are incredibly proud of these civic-minded students.
At Cassadaga Valley, we believe that community service, gratitude, and giving back are the heart of building engaged and compassionate citizens. ❤️💙

The Key Club had 39 members in attendance at their November meeting. The students wrote thank you notes to local Veterans in conjunction with the Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation. NCCF provided the club with the cards, envelopes, pre-addressed labels and stamps. The club had a lot of fun writing the heartfelt thank you cards! We are deeply grateful to all Veterans for their service, sacrifice, and dedication to our country.

Parents of winter sports athletes! If your athlete participated in a fall sport and is signed up for a winter sport, they do not need to start the FinalForms process all over again. You simply need to log in to their existing account, register for the new sport, and then will be required to re-sign the medical interval and concussion forms. The information is all retained in the form; it just needs to be re-signed due to NY rules and regulations.
Here's a quick video to explain. https://www.loom.com/share/a0db01b38a9840e1a0662e6f4cbf081c
JV/Varsity sports start 11/17 so final forms needs to be filled out prior to practice on 11/17/25
