Weekly Recap

With the warm weather finally upon us, Stimson is buzzing with excitement as we gear up for a packed end-of-year season! Be sure to check the district calendar for important dates and times - there’s a lot to look forward to.
Our spring sports teams are in full swing, showing off their skills and school spirit across the fields and courts. Meanwhile, our talented student musicians are preparing to take the stage this week for their final concerts of the year. They've been rehearsing diligently, and we can’t wait to see their hard work shine.
We also have our final state assessment, the NYS English Language Arts Assessment, taking place on Tuesday and Wednesday. Please make sure students are well-rested and ready to do their best.
On Tuesday evening, we’re excited to welcome our incoming 7th grade families for orientation. It's a great opportunity to introduce them to life at Stimson and get them excited about the year ahead.

Welcome to Breakfast at Stimson


This school year our Nutrition Program will be providing both breakfast and lunch meals at no charge to all of our students. For school arrival each morning, we have placed kiosks at the different entrances to the building; each one stocked with breakfast choices for our students. The locations were chosen to make sure everyone can "grab" a quick breakfast and be on their way to homeroom in a timely fashion. 

Make your family mornings a bit less hectic and join us for breakfast !!
