Superintendent’s Message

I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all those who were part of the Odyssey of the Mind Competition held at the campus on Saturday, March 27th. We had an enormous amount of staff and faculty members and parent volunteers who worked very hard on this successful, well coordinated event. We received positive feedback from the parents and community members regarding our incredible facility. Special thanks extended to our District Maintenance Department and Cafeteria Staff for all of their hard work and effort. I also wish to extend our sincere thanks to the Rensselaer Police Department for their help with traffic control as so many people exited the campus. Congratulations to our High School Team who placed 2nd in the competition.

With spring just around the corner, there is so much happening at the campus. Spring sports began on March 1st. Modified sports will begin toward the end of the month. The National Junior honor Society Induction is scheduled for the 19th of March with several students being inducted this year. This year’s Spring Musical is “Grease” with evening performances scheduled for the 26th, 27th, and a matinee performance on the 28th of March. We will end the month of March with the Van Rensselaer Elementary Spring Concert scheduled for the 31st.

Spring Recess will begin on Friday, April 2nd and the students and staff are due to return on the 12th. Pre-K and Kindergarten registration week will be held on April 19th-23rd. If you have a child that will be enrolled in either program, please contact the Elementary School for details.

The District will be facing many fiscal challenges during the upcoming school year. Our Budget Advisory Committee, Board of Education, and Administration are well on their way to preparing the 2010-2011 school budget. There is still time to become part of the process so if you are interested, please contact my office.
