Welcome!

 
 
It has been a busy spring both in and outside the classrooms at Oswegatchie School!  Students showed off their unique and varied abilities at our annual Talent Show, and performed in three musical ensembles at the spring concert.  They celebrated Earth Day by exploring the great outdoors and by going "paperless". On Arbor Day, the fifth grade students held a ceremony to plant and dedicate their gift to the school, a flowering tree to beautify our lovely grounds.  The Oswegatchie School Garden project is beginning to take shape as well, with the first raised beds going in as phase one of this exciting, hands-on learning opportunity for our students.  Many classrooms are working on long-term projects which require our students to conduct research and then choose a way to display their skills and knowledge.  In early June, parents and guardians will come in to view these unique presentations during the Project Fair.   We will also soon be offering our series of  Fun Friday enrichment activities for all students in grades kindergarten through five.

Each month we continue to add pompoms to our Bucket-Filler's cabinet at our Town Meetings, recognizing the efforts of our student body to be bucket fillers through their words and actions, and not to be bucket-dippers.  Bucket-filling is a character development program that increases a child's compassion for others and reduces negativity and self-centeredness.   Bucket-filling is also a way to eliminate negative behavior that can adversely impact a school climate.  Rather, bucket-filling creates a positive energy in our school that is contagious - the students here at Oswegatchie can't wait to see their collection of pompoms growing each month !  With so much going on in our world today, and with many extra challenges that we all face in life, it is more important than ever, for our school community and our society, that we all practice bucket-filling each and every day.
