For the past month or so, Elizabeth Dendis, senior at South Seneca Central School, has been preparing her pitch for the Grow-NY Youth contest. The first step of this competition was applying to be given a chance to make a pitch to the judges on the youth stage at the annual Grow-NY contest. The Grow-NY Youth contest calls on food system and technology entrepreneurs to pitch their idea to four judges to compete to win prize money that would benefit their business. Elizabeth, owner of Sweet Sprinkles Bakery that just opened up this past summer in Trumansburg, NY, already has a business plan, a storefront, and is already operating her business, but she has big ideas and knew that she could put money for her business to good use.
Not really knowing what to expect from this competition, the small group from South Seneca arrived in Binghamton on November 14th for the Grow-NY summit. After wandering through the presentation tables for the Grow-NY competition, and watching some of the pitches that ag start-ups were giving on the main stage, Elizabeth prepared for her pitch on the Youth Stage during lunch at the event. Elizabeth delivered a flawless pitch, explaining the ins and outs of her business, and was able to effortlessly answer the four judges' questions about her future plans for her business. Awards were announced on November 15, and Elizabeth placed 5th place in the competition, earning $500 to put toward her business. Thank you to Grow-NY, Cornell University, NYS 4-H, NYS FFA, and New York Agriculture in the Classroom for providing this wonderful opportunity for young entrepreneurs to advance their business!
Let's show our community and families just how much we really care about them!
Our Middle School Student Government and Community Connections class are coordinating our efforts this year to collect non-perishable food items and cash donations for Thanksgiving dinners for people in our community. Their goal is to collect food and cash donations for 10 complete dinners by the end of day on Friday, Nov. 17th.
We welcome everyone who would like to contribute!
All donations will be much appreciated.
See details below on our Dress Up / Dress Down For a Turkey Day- this Friday too! We are hoping that staff especially might have some fun with this Dress Up/ Dress Down day.
Their goal for Turkey purchases is $200. Please feel free to send $ donations (in an envelope marked Turkey Box Project) to my school mailbox anytime!! Checks can be made out to SSMS Student Government.
Lucy felt right at home taking a tour of the school. She even had a chance to meet some of our students/staff along the way! #foreverfalcons #fureverfalcons #southsenecacsd

This is a message to notify you that there is an ambulance at the MS/HS. We are addressing an individual medical concern with a student. There is no safety concern to others.
Thank you to the Ovid Fire Department for their quick response to the fire alarm at our MS/HS building! The issue turned out to be a tripped sensor. There was no safety concern. All staff and students are back into the building.
MS Chorus is using movement to understand singing in a round while using the acoustics in the atrium to hear each other for better harmonizing.
I am writing to inform you that earlier today the fire alarm was set off due to a microwave. I can assure you that everything is fine and there was no danger to any of the students or staff. The safety and well-being of your children are our top priorities, and we take all necessary precautions to ensure their safety. We practice regular fire drills to prepare for situations like this, and our staff is trained to respond quickly and efficiently to any emergency.
We are forever grateful to those who have served.

Some students took Practice ACT and Practice SAT at school last month. This was the first time the PSAT was offered digitally so there were some hiccups at the start, but nothing Sean Green and Brandon Swanson couldn't troubleshoot!
Here is the perfect opportunity for you to get out without your little ones and to let them have some fun at the same time! Permission slips will go home in your child's Friday folder.
