Principal’s Message
Math tests may seem daunting,
But don’t let that stop you from wanting
To do your best and work with your mind,
And leave those math problems far behind.
Remember, practice makes perfect,
So keep trying, don’t neglect
The opportunity to learn and grow,
And let your math skills overflow.
Don’t be discouraged if you stumble,
Just take a breath and don’t crumble,
Believe in yourself and your abilities,
And overcome those math test anxieties.
With hard work and with dedication,
You’ll reach new heights, hard work always gains admiration,
For your math skills that will surely shine,
And propel you forward, beyond the line.
Put in the effort, strive for success,
And don’t settle for anything less,
For with hard work and determination,
You’ll achieve your goals, no hesitation.
So hold your head up high and true,
And know that we believe in you,
For you are more than a score,
And you’re destined to achieve much more!
Kindergarten Registration
This year’s registration and screenings will be held on Wednesday, May 31st & Thursday, June 1st 2023 in the Sharon Springs Central School Auditorium.
New York State regulations state that a child may enter Kindergarten if the child attains the age of five years on or before December 1st of that school year. An amendment to New York State Compulsory Education Law, signed by the commissioner in June, 1992, clarifies that children who turn six during the school year must attend school at the start of classes in September. Any child who has his/her 6th birthday on July 1st or after must be enrolled in school.
Even if you are undecided at this time about enrolling your child, if you have a child who will be 5 years old on or before December 1st, 2023, please contact: Ashley Puding at (518) 284-2266 EXT 114 or email: apuding@sharonsprings.org
