District Census: Make Sure We Know About Your Child!

Schalmont Central School District conducts a district census to accurately predict student enrollment for the coming years and to help the district maintain communications with residents.  It is very important for us to have an accurate accounting of all residents, including homeowners and renters, with or without school-age children.

If you have not received a census card, please contact Carol Carelli at 355-6255, x2085, or click here to download a census card. Completed cards can be dropped off at the main office of any district school or mailed to:  Schalmont Central School District, 4 Sabre Drive, Schenectady, NY 12306.

Seeds of Learning

Seeds of Learning is a newsletter designed specifically for the parents of children under the age of 5. Schalmont sends several issues a year to parents of young children who are identified through the district's census conducted every two years.

If you are the parent of a child under the age of five, and would like to start receiving this newsletter, please e-mail Shari Lontrato at slontrat@sabrenet.net with your name, the name and birth date of your child, and your mailing address.

Seeds of Learning can also be viewed online.

 

1,000 Book Club
The 1000 Book Child Program encourages parents to read to their children because studies suggest that children who are exposed to 1,000 pieces of good literature between the ages of three and six will do better academically in school. The program collection is housed at Jefferson Elementary School, but all district elementary parents are invited to use the program. Learn more...
