On Tuesday, June 18, 2024, our sixth grade students and staff traveled to Niagara Falls to experience the majesty of the natural wonder.
With temperatures in the 90s, it was a great day to experience a ride on the Maid of the Mist, a boat tour that takes passengers onto the Niagara River near the gorge to experience the crashing waters.
Everyone enjoyed the day and the attractions that Niagara Falls has to offer. Thank you to York CSD Transportation for a safe ride!

Today, York Central School Senior Connor Rodwell was presented with the Livingston County Sheriff's Office School Resource Deputy Student of the Year Award. York School Resource Deputy Becky Kane selected Connor for the award.
Last year Connor organized a fundraiser that netted almost $60,000 which he donated to the Livingston County Suicide Prevention Task Force.
"He is a leader on and off the basketball court. He has faced obstacles and demonstrated perseverance through difficulties. Connor is a positive role model for children, teens, and adults. He has a great work ethic, a sense of volunteerism, displays leadership and always has a positive attitude, and offers random acts of kindness," said Deputy Kane.
Congratulations Connor on this well deserved recognition.
