Please join us for a reception on Monday, June 12, at 5 PM, honoring Superintendent Leichner and his retirement! We thank him for his 9 years of service to the District, deeming June 12th Peace in The Valley Day!


As you are aware, there is an air quality alert in our area. To limit the impact of this poor air quality event we have shut down the air intake devices to limit what is drawn into our buildings. As a result, our staff has been given the following guidance: Please stay in the building this afternoon and watch for symptoms our students may experience and take action as needed.
*Students with asthma should follow their asthma action plans and keep their quick-relief medicine handy*
We have also shared the attached diagram to provide helpful information.

Cassadaga Valley's 10 FFA students attended the State Convention at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center on May 18th - 20th. Catie Russell, our FFA president, competed in Jr. Extemporaneous Speaking. The students also competed in quiz bowl, making it to round two. The students experienced Niagara Falls, Goat Island, Cave of the Winds, and fireworks over the falls in the evening. The students you see are Catie Russell, Javonte Hackett, Elizabeth Hornburg, Jessica Hornburg, Matthew Runge, Derrick Runge, Parker McLane, and Joe Bellardo. This group worked top notch on two fundraisers, including car detailing, to earn this trip. We are so proud of their work!
