After a five year hiatus, Coxsackie-Athens CSD will be hosting the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life of Columbia and Greene Counties on Friday, May 31st. As we all know too well, cancer does not discriminate. Our school's Hope Club is fundraising because Cancer has affected too many people we love. Please join us on May 31st to celebrate survivors, remember those we've lost, and offer up support to anyone in our community who's been affected by it.
If you are willing and able, please consider donating to our cause. Monies raised will sustain critical research and provide services for people trying to cope with their cancer experience. Believe me, every dollar really does count! Thank you for your consideration!

EJA students participated in a community service project collecting food items for the Athens Food Pantry. Each week students collected various items. Grade levels competed in a friendly competition to see which grade could collect the most food (based on weight). Overall students collected a total of 648 pounds of food items with first grade coming in first place, grade 3 in 2nd place and 2nd grade coming in 3rd place! Members of the Athens Food Pantry came up and spoke to students about their community service at our December assembly.

Coxsackie-Athens School District administrators recently engaged in a collaborative meeting with Rabbi Zoe B. Zak of Temple Israel of Catskill to explore innovative ways to enrich students' educational experiences. The focus of the meeting was to discuss the implementation of presentations and simulations as a valuable learning tool and to establish a meaningful partnership that would benefit the students of Coxsackie-Athens Schools.
Recognizing the importance of diverse perspectives and experiential learning, the administrators and Rabbi Zak explored ways to integrate first-hand interviews, simulations and experiential learning into the curriculum. These presentations combined with interviews will provide students with the unique opportunity to gain insights and knowledge directly from individuals with diverse backgrounds and experiences, contributing to a more comprehensive and well-rounded education.
Rabbi Zak will assist in identifying potential interviewees from the local Jewish community, thereby broadening the scope of cultural and historical perspectives available to Coxsackie-Athens students.
Superintendent Squier expressed gratitude about the collaborative initiative, stating, "We believe that learning extends far beyond the classroom, and by partnering with Rabbi Zak and our local synagogue, we can offer our students the chance to engage with real-world experiences and diverse viewpoints. This partnership aligns with our commitment to ensuring all students feel they belong, by providing a well-rounded education that prepares students for success in an increasingly interconnected global society. We appreciate Rabbi Zak for her willingness to work with us on such an important topic"
The collaboration between Coxsackie-Athens Schools and Rabbi Zak exemplifies an approach to education that goes beyond traditional methods, providing students with valuable opportunities to learn from real-world experiences.
Update: ALL Athletic events today are postponed!
