9/7/2010 The 2010-2011 school year begins.


STCS Ranked #1


STCS has been ranked #1 by Buffalo's Business First magazine. STCS is #1 out of 287 elementary schools. The previous four years standardized NYS test scores were used to base the rankings, beginning with the most recent year of 2008-2009. Our current Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth graders achieved a standard of excellence that is second to none.

Congratulations to our students, faculty and staff for this collaborative effort. Job well done by all. Our Middle School ranking changed 46% for the better this year, to #89 out of 212 middle schools. Great focus and dedication everyone!
