Spotted this morning on Sandpit Road, a stone’s throw from our middle/high school campus.
Boy, if there’s a prettier spot in the fall than Upstate New York, we’d love to see it!

Another successful Fire Prevention Day in the books!
Many thanks to all firefighters and emergency medical workers who volunteered their time to come speak to our elementary schoolers on Monday.
Keeping our students safe is literally the most important job we do and we appreciate everyone who gave of their time and effort to teach our kiddos how to prevent fires from occurring in the first place and stay safe if they do occur.

So many good things growing out in the high tunnel this morning - we saw peppers, eggplant, kale, leeks, onions, several varieties of tomatoes and even a few strawberries!

Give it up for our High School Students of the Month for September!
Ms. Jocelyn Pierce and Dr. David Keiling nominated freshman student of the month J’nell Kroh.
“I have known J'Nell since she was in middle school. This year I finally have her as a student and she has gone above and beyond,” said Pierce. “Her homework is always done, she participates in class, and I can tell she is working hard. She is friendly with her peers in class and starts the day off with a smile. High School looks good on J'Nell!”
Our sophomore student of the month is Jakob Easton, nominated by Mrs. Jody Brydalski
“Jakob is a kind individual that always will tell me ‘Hello’ when he walks into the classroom. He is friendly and respectful to all,” said Brydalski. “Jakob stands out to me in class as he is a rockstar always answering questions and has a great knowledge of history. He always comes in with a positive attitude and is ready to work. He definitely shows his perseverance in my class!”
Brydalski also nominated our junior student of the month, Gabe Mazurkiewicz.
“Gabe came to us as a new student this year. He is the kindest and most respectful addition to Attica,” she said. “He always comes into class with a positive attitude and excitement for the day. He is not afraid to put himself out there to make friends. He is always trying to be his best self. His positivity is contagious and it's nice to start the day off with him in my class.”
Miguel Cebrian Peña, a foreign exchange student, is our 12th grade student of the month and was likewise nominated by Brydalski.
“Miguel comes in willing to work and is very kind to all,” said Brydalski. “He also received a 100 on his U.S. Maps quiz which many of his American counterparts did not. I like that he is ready to be involved and doesn't mind kids asking him questions about his culture, either. He is a great addition to Attica!”

How cool is this?
Alicia Thiers, née Wood, a 1993 graduate of Attica Central School District, works as a graphics operator for NBC | Peacock and this past June, she and her fellow production crew members won the 2024-25 Sports Emmy for Outstanding Technical Team Studio for their coverage of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris!
Thiers was recognized at midfield during our Homecoming football game against Geneseo/Mount Morris Friday night and presented with a certificate of recognition by Mayor Nathan Monford.
Congratulations, Alicia, on this incredible (and well-deserved) honor!
We love seeing our graduates going out and doing great things and this certainly qualifies - Bob Costas and Gayle Gardner had better watch their backs!

Your Attica Blue Devils got the 22-21 over Geneseo/Mount Morris on Homecoming Friday under the lights of Alumni Field.
Game ball has got to go to sophomore Landen Nagel, who was absolutely everywhere for the Blue Devils Friday night.
On offense, Landen led the team in rushing, gaining 80 yards on 13 carries and scoring a touchdown.
A two-way player for the Blue Devils, Landen also had 5 tackles, including two for a loss, at the linebacker position.
Perhaps most importantly, Landen grabbed a key interception late in the 4th quarter that sealed the victory for Attica.
Other key contributors on offense were quarterback Blake Kimes, who went 6-of-8 passing for 101 yards and a score while rushing for 55 yards and another TD, and William Franz, who hauled in 2 receptions for 70 yards. On defense, Hunter Green totaled 10 tackles.
With the win over Geneseo/Mount Morris, the Blue Devils moved to 2-3 on the season and are next in action this Thursday, Oct. 9 at home against Holley Central.
