New Panthers Den episode drop! 🚨 We sat down for a hilarious, high-energy chat with the Cross Country team. Who voluntarily runs for fun, you ask?! THESE kids do—and they’re led by a Wineglass Marathon-running coach who might be just as wild as they are!

Mrs .Palermo's Science 8 students took their learning outdoors, thinking like real-world scientists! Inspired by Miss Daningburg's trip to the Amazon Rainforest through the Morpho Institute's Educator Academy this summer, our 8th graders embarked on an exciting hands-on project. Working in collaboration with a partner school in Illinois, students are collecting temperature and environmental readings from green space and non-green space on campus. Students will have the opportunity to connect what they learn locally to better understand our global climate.
We are so proud of our 8th graders for tackling real-world environmental issues and discovering how local choices can impact the Amazon Rainforest.

Happy National Custodian Appreciation Day!

Our Alumni Spotlight for the month of October is Rhonda (Mesler) Underhill!
Rhonda (Mesler) Underhill is a proud member of the Campbell-Savona Class of 1996 and has dedicated her career to education and serving students, families, and educators.
Rhonda spent 14 years as an elementary teacher before moving into educational leadership, where she has spent the past 10 years supporting teachers, developing strong schools, and advocating for students. Today, Rhonda serves as a Chief Academic Officer, working to strengthen teaching and learning and ensure that all students have opportunities to thrive.
Recently, Rhonda earned her doctoral degree from St. John Fisher University. Her dissertation research, Effective Practices for School Leaders in High-Poverty Rural Elementary Schools, reflects her passion for understanding what school leaders can do to create meaningful opportunities for every child.
While Rhonda is proud of her professional accomplishments, she considers her greatest role to be that of mom. She is the proud mom of Sam and Elle and a bonus parent to Jillian and Terrell.
“I left Campbell-Savona as a student, became an educator because of the people who invested in me, and now have the privilege of investing in the next generation. I hope that my journey reminds students that where you begin does not determine how far you can go—and that the people who believe in you along the way matter more than you may ever realize.”
We continue to collect celebrations of our alumni, community members, faculty, and staff. Click here to submit a name!

It truly takes a village, and we are so grateful for ours!
As we get ready for tomorrow’s Homecoming Parade, we want to take a moment to thank the incredible community partners helping make it all possible.
A huge thank you to Chilson Wilcox in Painted Post for sponsoring the trucks that will chauffeur our Homecoming Court through the parade, and to Campbell Building Supply Co. for allowing us to use their flatbed for our judging and MC podium.
We are also incredibly grateful to the Campbell and Savona Fire Departments and our State Troopers for helping support the safety and smoothness of our parade.
Our community continues to show up for our students, and we appreciate it more than we can say.
It takes a village — and we are so thankful for ours!
We can’t wait to celebrate our Panther Pride and Patriotism with everyone tomorrow, October 3rd at 9:00 AM!
