Seventh-grade students from JSHS recently demonstrated their commitment to community service with a heartwarming visit to Catskill Animal Rescue in Liberty, New York. Under the guidance of Mrs. Galvin-Bliefernich, these industrious students embarked on a unique service project: transforming discarded materials into comfortable dog beds/cushions. They ingeniously rehabbed unfinished blankets that had been saved from previous projects and repurposed old couch slipcovers, showcasing their creativity and resourcefulness. Through this hands-on endeavor, the students honed valuable practical skills, including meticulous measuring, proficient sewing, and effective teamwork, all while creating much-needed comfort for the rescue animals. Their thoughtful donation exemplifies how ingenuity and compassion can make a tangible difference in their local community. Great job students!
A big thank you to Mrs. Galvin-Bliefernich on giving our students the ability to make low cost flower arrangements for the recent Eldred JSHS Junior Senior Prom. All of them came out beautiful! This event was also sponsored by the Eldred JSHS PTSA. Thank you to everyone involved, and great job students!
Congratulations to these three students who have been recognized by The American Red Cross as repeat Donors, and a special recognition to National Honor Society President Autumn Walsh, for promoting, hosting, and running her own drive with The American Red Cross. Great job!
Eldred and Liberty students jointly participated in an interactive presentation, "The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Sustainable Development Goals". The presenter was 2012 Eldred graduate Sarah Coykendell, who is now the Assistant Director of Holocaust Studies at Kean University.

Mrs Oset and Mr Ward accompanied the students on the trip.

Dear Eldred Families and Staff,
As we transition into spring, the likelihood of school cancellations due to inclement weather decreases. Emergency days serve as a safeguard for weather-related closures, district malfunctions, or other unforeseen emergencies. With the conclusion of winter, we have unused emergency days that must be incorporated back into the school calendar.
As a result, the following "Give Back Days" will be implemented for the remainder of the 2024-2025 school year:
Friday, April 11th – No school for 10- & 12-month staff and students
Monday, April 21st – No school for 10-month staff and students
Friday, May 23rd – No school for 10- & 12-month staff and students
Important Note: If additional emergency days are required, the above dates will revert to regular instructional days in the following order: May 23rd, then April 11th, and lastly April 21st.
Sincerely,
Traci Ferreira
Superintendent of Schools
Congratulations to Hailey Gochenour who won a $10.00 Amazon gift cards for logging books for the Reading Challenge!
