Congratulations to Addison Kiser (9th Grade) for being selected to participate in this year's NYSSMA Zone 3 Jr. High Area All-State Chorus. Addison sang Alto in the Mixed Chorus. She participates in South Seneca's High School Chorus as a Soprano and Vocal Jazz (Show Choir) as an Alto.
Applicants for Junior High Area All-State are currently in grades 7 through 9. They apply with their NYSSMA (New York State School Music Association) Solo Festival score from the previous year and a teacher recommendation. Applicants are from NYSSMA's Zone 3, which extends from Tompkins County to near Binghamton and near Syracuse. Applicants with the highest scores and levels are chosen to fill a limited amount of seats in the two choruses, band, and orchestra. Students who are selected work with a guest conductor over the period of a day and half and present the music they worked on at a concert.
Addison was one of 146 singers chosen in Zone 3. The Mixed Chorus worked with conductor, Holden Maiorana. Mr. Maiorana is currently the Director of Choirs at Spackenkill High School in Poughkeepsie, NY, where he also runs the High School drama program.
Our search for the next South Seneca Superintendent is underway.
We will continue to keep the community informed throughout the process, and updates will be posted regularly on the South Seneca CSD website here: https://www.southseneca.org/page/superintendent-search
“I would say that we have a unique food process in a couple of different ways,” Snell said. “First, I worked in the restaurant business for twenty plus years before switching to child nutrition. Along with this experience, I have made several great connections with farmers, growers, and producers. Sourcing local, regional, and organic foods is paramount to any food service operation. Why would it be any different for school food?”

"The most encouraging aspect of the initiative is its focus on inclusivity and flexibility,” Principal Horton said. “This initiative recognizes that every student learns and interacts with content differently and provides alternative ways to demonstrate their understanding."

Additionally, students in the photography class are learning about the history of photography and how the first photographic prints were created. They have begun exploring cyanotypes and how when you expose a light-sensitive paper to sunlight, it will create an image.
