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

Four Questions: Lennyn Flint
“My favorite part about art is that you don’t have to do just one thing; you can make your own, and you don’t have to copy others. You can think about what you like and what your personality is, and it’s just for fun. You can talk to your friends and make weird things, and it doesn’t have to be perfect.” Third grader Lennyn Flint spoke to us about how important art is to her and what she’s able to take away from it. Learn more about Lennyn as she answers four questions on Showcase Arts TV. https://youtu.be/jaq8kNuupXg

Dear Owego Apalachin Middle School Families,
Today, Monday, June 22, is officially the last day of school! We are reaching out to inform you of an important change to our dismissal schedule for this afternoon.
Please note that the OAMS dismissal time has been moved to 12:40 PM.
Key Information for This Afternoon:
School Bus Delays: With no after-school programs at OES and AES today, we anticipate buses will not arrive at the middle school until after 12:30 PM due to additional stops during the elementary runs.
Parent Pick-Up: If you plan to pick up your child before the adjusted 12:40 PM dismissal time, you may sign them out at the Welcome Center.
We hope you and your family have a wonderful, safe, and relaxing summer break!
