South Seneca Class of 2006 Alum Cassie Briggs recently stopped by her old stomping grounds to give two different workshops to current South Seneca high schoolers:
"Branding for Career Success: Creating a brand that grows your professional network and multiplies your career opportunities"
"Crafting a Compelling College Essay: Your guide to being one IN a million rather than one AMONG millions"

Public Notice December 6:
Please be aware that we are seeing a much higher than usual number of absences this week, at the same time we have been alerted by the NYS Department of Health and Education Department about a large spike in respiratory illness across the state.
We at South Seneca are encouraging everyone in the community to take extra precautions this winter to stay current on vaccinations, wash hands often, cover coughs and sneezes, and stay home when sick. Preventing contagious disease is a community effort.
An update from the elementary art program: Mrs. Lutter has shared pinch pots from 3rd grade, clay animals from 1st, and waterfall pictures from 5th grade!
Come out and VOTE next Tuesday in the MSHS cafeteria from 1 to 8 p.m.

Both High School Garden Lit classes participated in New York Agriculture in the Classroom's Mac & Cheese Innovation Challenge this week.
Here is the description from NY Agriculture: "With cheese taking the starring role in this favorite food, we find ourselves lucky to live in New York where so many delicious cheese varieties are produced. The dairy industry is the largest agricultural sector in the state and makes more than one billion pounds of all cheeses annually. Around 15 billion pounds of milk are produced on nearly 3,600 farms across the Empire State, making New York the 5th largest dairy producing state in the nation."
South Seneca students received a great assortment of spices from NY Ag in the Classroom, a cutting board, two measuring cups, and a mac & cheese idea book. Each of the classes have come up with their own recipes (it has to be an original recipe) and will now have to come up with a marketing slogan for their mac & cheese version.
On today's menu: Buffalo Chicken Mac n' Cheese Pie! And it was soooo tasty!
South Seneca Central School District currently has an opening for a Full-Time High School Math Teacher.

Good morning this is Steve Parker Zielinski, Superintendent at South Seneca. There is a water main break this morning in Interlaken, and with a half-day of instruction scheduled, we will need to cancel school today for Grades PK-5. Interlaken staff will report at noon, and all scheduled parent teacher conferences for this afternoon will take place as planned. The public information session for the capital project proposal will also go on as scheduled.
Once again, school is cancelled today for grades PK-5 only. Thank you.
Come out tomorrow night!
This is a message to notify you that there is going to be an ambulance at the MS/HS. We are addressing an individual medical concern with a staff member. There is no safety concern to others.
We couldn't be more thankful for being part of such an incredible community. To every South Seneca community member, we hope your day is filled with gratitude, a little bit too much food, family, friends, a Bills win, and a great nap. HAPPY THANKSGIVING! #foreverfalcons

The 4th grade had a great time this morning at Persoon's Dairy! The kids got to meet the cows, see how the cows are milked using technology (a great STEM connection), and got to try some curds from Lively Run Dairy that are made with the milk from Persoons. What a trip!
Public Notice November 15:
A news article published today included a headline that our Middle-High School was placed into lockdown on Monday, but it would be more accurate to say that the school was “minutes away” from communicating a shelter-in-place protocol to the school community.
Understanding that our outer doors are always locked during a school day, we first received word from law enforcement about the person of concern around 11:25am, and in the roughly twenty minutes when we were clarifying that there was no threat to the school itself, and that we had the most accurate information to include in a public notice, we were informed that the suspect had been taken into custody. During those twenty minutes, we had continuous communication from law enforcement to update us on the situation.
