Please forgive the update for today! Due to the current cold temperatures as a result of the wind chill factor this morning, Northern Adirondack Central will operate on a 2 hour delay. To repeat, NAC will be on a 2 hour delay schedule for today Wednesday, January 26, 2022.
Good evening NAC Families! This message is to encourage you to read the statement currently being published in the NEWS section of our website and on our Facebook page regarding mask wearing.
Good morning again Northern Adirondack Families and staff. After a recent conversation with our school attorney, it is clear that a decision made in the Nassau County State Supreme Court is only binding for that county and has no bearing on the rest of the State. With that being said, the State mask mandate is still in place and we here at NAC are going to comply with it and continue to wait and see what unfolds throughout the day. At this point we are having all students and staff return to wearing masks. Please understand that we accept that there are differing opinions in our school community, however we must continue to follow the mandate and promote a safe environment.

SUPERINTENDENT'S UPDATE
December 16, 2021
Good morning NAC families. As many of you are already aware, there was an unspecific school violence threat circulating among several schools in Clinton County late last night. Major Leon from the Clinton County Sheriff’s Department emailed this AM (morning) that a juvenile was identified as sharing locally. The Sheriff's Department and partner law enforcement will still be beefing up patrols at all of our schools in Clinton County. Sheriff Favro also share BOCES District Superintendent this morning that the National Sheriff's Association has identified similar school violence threats across the country on Tic Tok. Specifically, he mentioned California and Ohio. The threats are specifying school violence on Friday, 12/17. He wanted all Superintendents and school officials to be aware and to know that law enforcement is continuing to work on it, as there may be other threats circulating. And, most importantly that this was not just a local trend.
As your superintendent, I ask that you continue to report anything out of the ordinary in regards to potential threats of violence. Sometimes you will see something online that we may not be aware
of.
Thank you for your continued support in maintaining a safe school environment, and please thank all of the law enforcement agencies that support us on a daily basis.
As I was finishing this message we received an update from Trooper D’Ambro who relayed that the local threat has been deemed a "non-credible”.
James C. Knight, Jr.
Superintendent of Schools
