Behind the Scenes: Physics Bus
“So today we have all types of interactive exhibits, where you can do different things, interact with light, sound, touch, magnetism, and through interactivity understand principles of physics.” The physics bus was at Owego Elementary School, giving students the chance for some hands-on learning. See what they got to do in this behind-the-scenes on Showcase Classroom TV. https://youtu.be/QZgF6tDGNV8

Important Update: Summer 2026 Capital Project Work and Campus Traffic Changes
Dear School Community,
As we transition into the summer break, we are excited to take the next steps in our District Capital Project. These upgrades will greatly improve our facilities for students, staff, and community members.
Because several major projects kick off this week, there will be immediate impacts on campus traffic, parking, and facility access. Please review the breakdown of upcoming work below.
AES Updates
Cafeteria Renovation: Work is scheduled to begin on July 1, 2026.
Playground Upgrades: Delivery of the new playground equipment has been slightly delayed. It is now expected to arrive in late summer or early fall. We will share updates on installation timelines as soon as they are confirmed.
Owego Free Academy Updates (OFA & OAMS Campus)
Work on the athletic field officially started today, June 22, 2026. In the large OFA lot near the Island Field.
Pool Locker Rooms & Bathrooms: Renovation work is underway. To maintain facility availability, locker rooms will be remodeled one at a time.
Critical Traffic, Parking & Safety Adjustments (Starting June 23)
To ensure the safety of our community and construction crews, major safety fencing will be installed starting tomorrow, Tuesday, June 23. Please note the following closures:
Fencing will be installed from the island to the main building. The front of OFA is completely shut down to traffic and pedestrians.
Pool Parking Lot Closed: This lot will be entirely closed and used as a construction staging area. Community members using the pool should plan to park in the main lot at the middle school and walk around the building to the pool entrance.
Campus Traffic Routing: Because of these closures, all campus traffic must utilize the OAMS parking lot for entry, exit, and parking. This includes any use of the stadium.
Safety Reminder: Construction zones will be clearly marked and fenced off. For your safety, please do not enter any restricted areas and use extra caution when driving through the OAMS parking lot.
We appreciate your patience, flexibility, and cooperation as we work to improve our schools. We will continue to keep you updated as these projects progress throughout the summer and fall!

Mrs. Hodges 4th Graders at AES put together their annual farmers market! The students created business plans, discussed how to make a profit, created commercials and posters to advertise their businesses, and then created items to sell using fake money. Such a great way to end the decimal unit and school year! #AESRiverHawks #sOArTogether
