Is your child involved in athletics?
Join the Titans Booster Club and play a vital role in supporting our student-athletes. The Booster Club helps manage concession stands, awards scholarships to two senior athletes each year, and does so much more behind the scenes to enhance our athletic programs.
We are currently seeking volunteers for the positions of President and Treasurer.

The District is closed on Monday, January 19th for Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Midterms and Winter Regents Exams for the Jr/Sr High School will be Tuesday, January 20th through Friday, January 23rd.
Also on January 23rd, there will be a guest chef assisting our Food Services staff to create a delicious meal of Mongolian meatballs, garlic rice, and roasted broccoli.
We have recently experienced an increase in students being dropped off in the morning earlier than permitted before the school day begins. Please be advised that students may not be dropped off prior to 7:45 a.m., as there is no staff supervision prior.
This is especially concerning during this time of year, as students are left waiting in the vestibules or even outside in cold temperatures. For the safety of all of our students, this expectation must be followed. If early drop offs continue to occur, families may be contacted directly.
To review the parking lot driving and parking procedures, please review the diagram and instructions on our website here: https://www.taconichills.k12.ny.us/page/dropoff-pickup-procedures
The topic surrounding the conversation will be attendance.
No RSVP required! Coffee and Tea will be available. We hope to see you there!

Dear PreK–Grade 8 Parents/Guardians,
We would like to inform you that the half day originally scheduled on the District Calendar for Grades PreK–8 on Friday, January 23rd has been cancelled.
Students in Grades PreK–8 will now attend school for a full day on this date.
(This does not impact the schedule for Grades 9–12, who should also be attending the full day.)
In addition, students can look forward to a special lunch that day, as our food services staff will be working with a guest chef to provide a wonderful meal of Mongolian meatballs, garlic rice, and roasted broccoli.
Please mark your calendars, and thank you for your attention to this update.
