Twenty-nine students were honored for their academic performance at a celebration that has so successfully incentivized student achievement that the event had to be moved to the school's gymnasium to accommodate all those being recognized.
Rye Lake Campus Middle-High School students and staff celebrated the arrival of spring with multi-themed week of school spirit displays.
"Step Into Spring," the spirit week theme, featured "Green Day" on March 17 with a wearing of the green, followed on Tuesday by sports team Jersey Day and and PJ Day on Wednesday. Thursday was all about Crazy Socks, of which there were many fun examples. However, Friday brought out Principal Eric Ford's fun side with Cartoon/Superhero Day where everyone was invited to dress up as their favorite character or hero!
School Spirit is thriving at Rye Lake, encouraging a positive, inclusive culture and unity among all students.
Rye Lake Campus Middle School students Miles Dimasi, Denum Abreu, Xavier Tucker and Jace Thomas stepped behind the counter at Vinnie's Pizza on Broadway in North White Plains on a recent weekday. Each described his perfect pizza then watched wide-eyed as Vinnie himself assembled it from scratch. Their visit to this local business provided a chance to learn a skill, see what it's like behind the counter, and to practice their social skills. It also provided a delicious, personalized lunch, thanks to owner Vincent Villeda's generous invitation.
Thirty-one Rye Lake Campus middle and high school students were celebrated recently for their academic achievement in the second quarter. The latest Honor Roll ceremony was attended by family members, teachers and Southern Westchester BOCES officials. “This is always a rewarding celebration," Principal Eric Ford said.
