Frazer Pre-K–8 School recently hosted its annual Celebration of the Arts, a special event that brings together students, families, and staff to recognize the creativity and talents that make our school community shine. This meaningful tradition is a collaboration between our Community School Coordinator and our Art and Music teachers, who work together each year to create an opportunity for students and families to celebrate artistic expression and achievement. The evening featured a wonderful showcase of student artwork and musical performances, highlighting the hard work, imagination, and dedication of our students. More than 50 families joined us to celebrate students from kindergarten through eighth grade, making it a truly schoolwide event. From visual arts to musical performances, students had the opportunity to share their talents and take pride in their accomplishments. The Celebration of the Arts continues to be a powerful way to bring families into our school, strengthen community connections, and showcase the many ways the arts inspire creativity, confidence, and self-expression. Thank you to our students, families, teachers, and staff for making this year's celebration such a memorable success! Frazer Frontier Community Connection The Syracuse City School District

There’s nothing better than singing Peaceful Schools’ greatest hit — The S.T.A.R. Song — with an auditorium full of young Peaceful People. ⭐️🎶 Today was one of those magical moments that reminds us why we do this work. Thank you, Jamestown Public Schools, for another incredible day of Personal Safety Assemblies, big energy, and amazing students! 💙

Thank you Lincoln Elementary School for the shout out! Mr. Shawn & Ms. Joanna had an incredible time connecting with your students and teaching powerful, real-life Safety Rules that help kids stay safe, confident, and empowered every day. The energy, participation, and enthusiasm from your students made the day so special. Thank you for welcoming us into your school community — we loved every minute! Jamestown Public Schools

Ms. Joanna and Mr. Shawn from Peaceful People visited our school. They did a great job helping children learn about personal safety. We are so fortunate to have these wonderful individuals from a great organization helping to teach our scholars lifelong skills on safety.

Clyde-Savannah's 2nd Annual Earth Day Event was a hit! Families had a blast exploring with Wildlife Rockstars, Cornell Master Gardeners, and the Montezuma Audubon Center—from critters to composting worms to bird feeders! 🐛🐦🌱 We even powered phones with a pedal bike 🚲⚡ and hosted Hidden in Plain Sight for families. Thanks to Community Schools for funding our vendors and to our amazing partners we’ve proudly worked with year after year! Every student who visited all stations earned an insect catcher 🐞—and the turnout was fantastic!

The families of Lincoln Middle School came together for a night full of literacy, creativity, and connection! 📚Community Schools hosted an engaging evening featuring a mystery book giveaway, a “Paint an Adventure” activity, free dinner, and a gift raffle. Families also took part in an important conversation about the national literacy crisis—focusing on how we can address it within our own school community and support reading and growth at home. When schools and families partner together, powerful things happen. 💙 The Syracuse City School District Lincoln Middle School

Last week, Peaceful Schools was ALL over Buffalo Public Schools —bringing SEL to life in fun, creative, meaningful ways.
📚 At BPS #90 Early Childhood Center: we joined “Raise a Reader” with a character read-aloud—because reading builds joy, connection, and strong relationships.
🎈 At BPS #74 Hamlin Park: families got hands-on making DIY stress balls + learning real-life calming and breathing strategies.
✨ At #309 East Community HS: affirmation mirrors turned into powerful moments of confidence, self-love, and positivity (plus LOTS of gems and stickers 😉)
🎤 At South Park HS our Caregiver Connections talk show taught De-escalation and Conflict Resolution strategies.

We LOVE being in community—learning, laughing, and growing together ❤️

👀 Catch us this Saturday again:
• BPS #43 Lovejoy Discovery (9–12)
