Our school has been selected to participate in the New York State Department of Health BMI Survey for the 2026–2027 school year. This pertains to students in NYS mandated grade levels for physical exams.
As part of these exams, a student’s height and weight are measured to calculate Body Mass Index (BMI). BMI helps determine whether a student’s weight falls within a healthy range.
This means that students currently in grades PK, K, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 who were required to have their BMI included in their school health examination will have their BMI weight status group included in the state survey next school year.
Please note:
• Only summary information is shared with the New York State Department of Health
• No student names or identifying information are included
• Families may choose to opt their child out of the survey reporting
SES families will soon receive an opt-out letter in their child’s backpack. MHS families will soon receive an opt-out letter via mail. If you do NOT want your child’s weight status information included in the 2026–2027 School Survey, please sign and return the form to the Health Office by June 8, 2026.
The information collected helps health officials develop programs that support healthier children and communities.
Please contact the Health Office with any questions.

SES held its Science Fair on 5/14/26 from 6:00–7:30 PM. The event, led by Mr. Guziec and Mrs. Hale, showcased many creative and engaging student projects! Families and staff had the opportunity to explore experiments, demonstrations, and presentations that highlighted students’ hard work, curiosity, and problem-solving skills. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make the evening a success!
