From Mr. Edwards
Dear Students, Families, Staff, and Members of the Cortland Community,
Welcome to June!
As we enter the final month of the school year, we find ourselves in a season full of energy, emotion, and anticipation. June brings with it a unique blend of excitement and reflection—there is joy in celebration, a touch of sadness in saying goodbye, and great pride in how far we have come together.
This is a time when our school buildings are both looking ahead to the opportunities of a new year and thoughtfully closing the chapter on the one we are completing. It is a month full of culminating experiences: concerts that showcase the artistic growth of our students, final athletic events that display accomplishment and resilience (go Tennis and go Track!), academic celebrations that honor hard work and achievement, and ceremonies that mark important transitions—especially for our graduates who are preparing to take their next big steps beyond Cortland.
To our students: we are proud of your efforts, your growth, and your perseverance this year. You’ve faced challenges and overcome them with courage. Keep pushing forward and take pride in all you’ve accomplished.
To our families: thank you for your partnership. Your involvement and encouragement are a vital part of your child’s educational journey, and we are grateful for the trust you place in us.
To our dedicated staff: your tireless commitment to our students and to each other is deeply appreciated. The Cortland community is stronger because of the work you do every single day. Our students are better because of you.
I encourage everyone—whether you have a child in our schools or simply care about the future of our community—to attend one of our many year-end events. These moments of celebration are not only meaningful for the students but serve as a reminder of what makes our school district such a vibrant and special place.
Please continue to check our district website and follow us on social media to stay informed about all the activities happening in our schools this month. Your engagement matters, and we want you to be a part of the joy and celebration that June brings.
Go Tigers!
