Family, School, Community: Together We Succeed
🦷 DID YOU KNOW? Your child can get dental care at school in Elmira!
Through our partnership with Mosaic Community Dentistry, ECSD students can receive important dental services right at school during the school day — including screenings, dental exams, X-rays, cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants and more.
That means fewer appointments to schedule, less time away from work for families, and less time away from learning for students. ❤️
As a Community School District, we believe supporting the whole child means making health and wellness services more accessible to our students and families — right where our kids already are.
Because when we remove barriers to care, students are healthier, families have one less thing to juggle, and kids can stay focused on being kids and learning.

Broadway Academy was buzzing with excitement during our Career & College Day!
More than 500 students in grades 4-9 had the opportunity to explore future possibilities as they interacted with 53 career, college, and community partners from across the region. Students asked questions, discovered new career pathways, and learned firsthand about the skills and education needed for a variety of professions.

Broadway Academy and Broadway Intermediate are participating in a cereal box collection for the Food Bank of the Southern Tier. Many of the students at Broadway Academy have volunteered for the foodbank this year and helped sort the various food items for the foodbank. We collected 55 boxes so far and would like to make our goal of 400 boxes by June 12th!
On June 12th we will celebrate with making a chain of all the boxes and knocking them down like dominoes before we donate the cereal.
