Thanks to all who helped, including students Hayley Armeli, Summer Marcus , Paige Pfaff, Zach Smith, Nicole Merry, Head Building Maintenance Mechanic Joe Pollinger and Tracie McCarthy from GST BOCES!
You made it an awesome school year -- now have an awesome summer!
The Arkport public library had its grand re-opening (after its facelift) celebration last week. The Arkport art department was asked to supply art for the walls, and we delivered! Pictured are the works of our advanced art I and II classes.
Congratulations to the Class of 2023! #ArkportPride
Just a reminder!
Recently third grade students went to the zoo – the band petting zoo, that is! In General Music they learned about band instruments and then, when Mrs. Olix-Anderson and older students visited their class, were able to see, touch and hear each band instrument. Once they are in the fourth grade, they can join the band and keep the music playing!

Recently, fourth grade students were tasked with writing about an influential woman in history they admired. They were asked to explain why she is someone others can look up to as well. Their essays were submitted to a contest sponsored by the Alfred-Almond American Association of University Women that was open to area schools.
The AAUW selected two winners, both from the Arkport fourth grade class, as winners! Evan Trimble and Otis Harper were recognized for their writing and were given the opportunity to read their essays to attendees at a banquet held in May. Both students received a medal in recognition of their work; congratulations to Evan and Otis!
