Student Programming

Student programming is the core mission of our group. Each year we provide enriching K-12 programming for SCCS students that centers on our mission. Programming and outreach efforts include celebrating Anne Frank’s birthday, supporting the King Ferry Food Pantry backpack program, hosting speakers, performances, and more to foster educational student experiences.

Anne Frank Birthday Celebration
The Southern Cayuga elementary students celebrate Anne Frank’s birthday every June. This includes birthday treats and gathering around the tree.

Talking Turtle Stories
Perry Ground, Native American Storyteller, presented traditional Haudenosaunee stories to elementary students, along with discussing the Haudenosaunee influence on American democracy with middle school students.

Additional school-wide efforts:

  • A school-wide week of educational activities around Holocaust remembrance.

  • Funding towards the King Ferry Food Pantry’s backpack program.

  • Partnering with Syracuse Stage for in-school productions of relevant, and enriching performances.

  • Providing funds for each child to purchase a book during the Scholastic Book Fair.
