Dear Parents and Members of the Lowville Academy School Community,

As the final days of the academic year come to a close, I want to take a moment to reflect on what has been an inspiring and memorable journey for all of us. June is a time of celebration, reflection, and gratitude – and I could not be prouder of everything our school community has accomplished.

First and foremost, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to our families and community members. Your unwavering support, encouragement, and partnership have made a meaningful difference in our students’ lives. Whether you volunteered your time, cheered from the sidelines, helped with homework, or showed up for our school events, your involvement has been invaluable.

To our incredible administration, faculty and staff – thank you. Your dedication, compassion, and resilience have been the cornerstone of our success this year. Every lesson taught, every challenge met, and every student encouraged has contributed to the strong, vibrant learning environment we are so proud of.

And to our students: You are the heart of our schools. Your curiosity, determination, kindness, and achievements have inspired us all year long. Whether you’re moving on to the next grade, transitioning to middle or high school, or graduating to new adventures beyond our district, know that you carry with you the pride and admiration of your school community.

As we look to the summer, I encourage everyone to rest, recharge, and find time for the things that bring you joy. And while we pause from the school calendar, our planning for the next academic year is already underway. We remain committed to continuous improvement, equity in education, and creating a place where every student can thrive.

On behalf of the Lowville Academy Board of Education, I thank you once again for being such an essential part of our school family. Have a safe, joyful, and relaxing summer.
