And we are off to Camillus Middle School!




Great job students!  We are very proud of the skill and composure that all of you demonstrated during the competition.

Thank you, Veterans!

On behalf of our entire school, I want to thank all the Veterans and Active Duty Personnel who joined us for our Veterans Day Tribute.  Our students took great pride in singing patriotic songs and in having our guests join them in saying the Pledge of Allegiance.




















After the ceremonies, Lieutenant Jason Taylor spoke to the fifth grade students about what military service is like for those who serve and what it is like for their families.  Master Sergeant Carl Derby and retired TSGT Sandy Sanderson joined Lieutenant Taylor in answering questions from the students. 



Mr. Sanderson presented a United States flag that flew with our troops in Afghanistan to Stonehedge Elementary School.  The flag will be framed and displayed in the School Library.
