Good afternoon NAC families and staff, I want to take a moment to welcome you back to the start of a new school year. With that being said we are trying to get information to you as soon as possible. ** Student and Parents will know which Bus Route they are assigned the first day of School** ALL STUDENTS EFFECTED BY THE FOLLOWING CHANGES HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED WITH A TEXT MESSAGE AND ROBO CALL** Due to our driver shortage, tomorrow the following bus routes will be going out as a second run AM and PM, route 5, 13, and 16 will all be second runs for the morning and route 5 and route 8 will combine in the afternoon. Please allow up to 1 hour and 15 minutes for the delays of your students being picked up and dropped off. This will be the same for the next few weeks at this time frame.

Attention Sports Parents: NYSPHSAA approved a new policy for spectator sportsmanship. This policy requires all schools and sections to formally follow through with any issues that arise with spectators. Section VII has formally adopted the Spectator Sportsmanship policy which can be viewed at the following link: https://5il.co/23joq Please review this policy if you plan on attending any sporting event. Poor sportsmanship by any spectator may result in the removal from the contest with the minimum requirement of a one game suspension(the next game) and they must also take 2 free NFHS courses, and submit the completion forms to their AD before they are allowed to attend another game in person.

Good evening NAC Families! This message is a follow up to the message recently sent out by our Transportation Supervisor regarding the recently updated Board of Education Policy related to Transportation. I have become aware of many questions regarding the section entitled Transportation of Resident Students Attending District Schools and it's reference to a 15 mile range. Northern Adirondack will not adhere to the 15 mile limit, and will pick up our students throughout the entire district as we always have. The wording in the policy is mandated and required wording that our attorneys, the NYS School Boards Association, and NYS Education Law states must be included in our policy. Again, NAC will continue to transport our students throughout the entirety of our district. Thank you for your understanding.
