Thursday, January 25th, 2024: "I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Weiner..." Maybe not, but a Binghamton University Bearcat would be pretty cool! On January 25th, several Syracuse Academy of Science High School scholars visited Binghamton University and got a bonus sighting of the iconic Weinermobile! College campus visits are just one piece of the puzzle to our college-prep curriculum.
Tuesday, January 23rd, 2024: Spring came early at Syracuse Academy of Science Elementary School! In Ms. Heilig's ELL (English Language Learners) group, students cut out and made paper daffodils and then labeled the parts to practice spelling words.
Sunday, January 21st, 2024: The Syracuse Academy of Science Robotics team has done it again! The scholars attended the FTC MVCC Qualifier tournament with two teams, New Wave and SAS ATOMS.
We are delighted to announce New Wave was honored with the Best Design award and second place in the Connect award, while SAS ATOMS secured the Inspire award, the highest honor at the tournament. This is the first time the robotics club has achieved the Inspire Award in 10 years! This incredible achievement has earned the SAS ATOMS a well-deserved spot in the upcoming regional championship. Also, two outstanding robotics members, Samara and Mickayla, have been nominated for the Dean's List Award at the FTC tournament.
Please join us in congratulating the robotics club for this remarkable accomplishment. What a dedicated and talented team!!
Thursday, January 18th, 2024: Syracuse Academy of Science third grade Atoms struck a pose at Green Lakes Lanes in Fayetteville. Bowling is full of math problems, from calculating your total score to figuring out the correct angles to throw the ball at to knock down the most pins. 3rd graders also worked on Social Emotional skills like good sportsmanship.
We hope Green Lakes Lanes enjoyed having us as much as we enjoyed being there.
Friday, January 12th, 2024: Syracuse Academy of Science second graders visited the Children's Museum of Oswego. This field trip had everything from a giant water table, to a huge climber, and all the science and play stations you could imagine in between. Atoms had a blast getting out of the classroom for hands-on STEM fun!
