Anthony perfectly embodies our motto: Inspire Foster Excel. He is a cornerstone of our school culture, bringing energy and compassion to everything he does.
Excel: Anthony is a model of dedication. From working concessions at nearly every home basketball game to being a driving force in Student Council, he understands the hard work required to bring ideas to life. He holds himself to the highest standards and consistently goes above and beyond for his peers.
Foster: A natural leader, Anthony fosters a supportive environment. He is always the first to help a classmate, offering patience and active listening. His involvement in after-school programs further proves his commitment to our community.
Inspire: Anthony inspires others through his resilience, especially in Math class. When challenges arise, he doesn't give up; instead, he asks probing questions and meticulously fixes mistakes. Most importantly, he reassures struggling peers with empathy, saying, "I just did the same thing—it won’t take long to fix."

Commitment to Excellence: Logan is a focused, diligent worker who approaches every task with enthusiasm. He is always eager to participate, yet shows a high level of maturity and understanding by respecting the flow of classroom discussions.

A huge thank you to Hamilton County and The Adirondack Health Medical Fitness Center in Lake Placid! Due their generosity we are offering a six-week session focused on water safety and skill development for students in grades PK-12. This is a fantastic opportunity for children to build confidence in the water, improve their skills, and enjoy time with their peers at a great facility.
Earth Day is an annual global event observed on April 22nd that serves as a powerful reminder of our collective responsibility to protect the planet. Since its inception in 1970, it has grown into a massive movement involving over a billion people across nearly 200 countries. The day is dedicated to raising awareness about critical environmental issues such as climate change, deforestation, and plastic pollution, while encouraging sustainable practices like reforestation and waste reduction. It’s a moment for both individual reflection and systemic advocacy, urging us to transition toward a greener, more resilient future.

But we think it's about time your weeknight meals got the spring cleaning treatment, too. So we rounded up all of our easy (and healthy!) spring recipes to help you do just that.

Can you tell we are so ready for warm weather? Well, we are. So go ahead and say so long to all those heavy sweaters (and hearty casseroles) and say hello to these 40 healthy spring recipes that'll more than brighten up dinner time.
The days are getting warmer, the trees are budding, the sun is shining a little more each day: it's springtime! Sure, summer, fall, and winter are amazing, but spring brings new life into the communities. Wildflowers, flowing waterfalls, the adrenaline rush of whitewater rafting, and migrating birds define spring in Hamilton County. And, best of all, there's still plenty of fun in every corner of the county.
