High School Guidance Information

Guidance Department to Recognize UNITY DAY at Cincinnatus The Guidance department is pleased to announce that Cincinnatus Central School District will be recognizing an important day this year; Unity Day, which is on October 25th. Unity Day was started by PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center as a signature event of National Bullying

The Anonymous Listening Locker

The Guidance Office has again set up an Anonymous Listening Locker in locker #276. Students can write a note if they need help or need to report something. Students in any grade utilize the locker. Notes can be signed or anonymous.

Prevention Month. The call to action was to “Make it Orange and Make it End. Unite Against Bullying!” Participants were encouraged to wear orange to show their support for bullying prevention. That’s the day everyone can come together – in schools, communities, and online – and send one large ORANGE message of support, hope, and unity to show that we are together against bullying and united for kindness, acceptance and inclusion. Leading up to this day, please take the time to speak with your children about the impacts of bullying so we can focus on prevention and ultimately school wide unity.Please remember to wear ORANGE on October 25th to show support for this noteworthy day!

Middle School Guidance: Welcome Back!The guidance department would like to extend a warm welcome to all new and returning students and their families!Counselors BELIEVE...students in the middle school are in a significant transition period, which is a normal part of the developmental process of growing up. Young adolescents change more in every part of life than in any other developmental period (excluding infancy). We recognize that our students need a healthy self-concept and motivation to learn in order to be successful during such a critical transition period.Counselors HELP...young adolescents learn to understand and appreciate their unique qualities and help them grow personally and socially; learn to manage and organize information; make choices and deal with change; create individualized academic plans and set educational goals; develop positive attitudes towards self, family, community, lifelong learning and the world of work; experience career exploration activities and show students how school performance relates to career opportunities; and create a positive learning environment by working with students, parents and teachers to identify and remove barriers that may impede student achievement.

* Some notes from Mrs. MacDonald ~ Grade 5 & 6 Groups will be starting soon! Please be on the lookout for group permission slips coming

home soon; Banana Splits and Friendship Group will be offered this year as well as possibly a few others! Are there any specific groups you’d like your child to participate in? Please let me know!

As always, I am here to help meet any counseling needs for students in grades 5-8; feel free to contact me at any time with questions, concerns or to set up individual counseling for your student. I can be reached in the guidance office at 863-3200 option 3 or at kmacdonald@cc.cnyric.org. **The perfect attendance recognition program was such a huge success last year that we are bringing it back again this year! What is perfect attendance? Perfect attendance is coming to school all day, every day; no days tardy, no early dismissals. Like last year, as a way to recognize student attendance, we will publish the names of all middle school students who achieve perfect attendance each month in the Lion’s Roar, we will celebrate each semester’s perfect attendance achievers and, of course, full year achievers!

Have a Great Year Everyone!

SAVE THE DATE Dear Families: Get ready to celebrate the love of reading with our upcoming Scholastic Book Fair! There will be many wonderful books to choose from.

Cincinnatus Central School District: A community striving to meet all students’ needs, awaken their minds and touch their hearts.

Cincinnatus Central School DistrictBoard of Education

Margaret Peri: President Jessica Latta: Vice President

Peter BushJeffrey Delepine Richard DodgeNathan Metzler Charles Winters

The Cincinnatus Central School District works to convey information to students, parents, businesses and community members in a variety of ways. One major source of information is the school district website which can be found on the Internet at www.cc.cnyric.org.

Another method of communication within the district is this publication, The Lion's Roar, which is produced by students enrolled in the high school course, Computer Publications. The newsletter is published entirely by students and the printing completed by OCM BOCES. In addition to the website and newsletter, there are also a variety of classroom newsletters, grade reports and parent memos sent home via students and/or mail.

The purpose of these communication tools is to share information about our district, to showcase student, faculty, and staff endeavors, as well as provide resources for students, parents, community members and faculty. We welcome input from all of the school community in making this communication more efficient and more valuable. In utilizing new technologies the district may want to post children's work or pictures on our website and/or in district publications. This could include photos, writings, artwork, or videos recorded for our in-house TV station. Parents or guardians who do NOT wish to have their child’s name and/or photograph on the district web site, in student video productions, in the newsletter or other publications, must notify the district in writing of their wishes. This must be done each school year. Please send any related correspondence to:
