Southern Cayuga Central School District is deeply committed to the success and well-being of every student. We provide a rich array of academic and fine arts opportunities, supported by robust programs designed to meet individual learning needs. Using achievement data and research-based practices, we tailor instruction to ensure that every student can reach their fullest potential.

Serving approximately 650 students, our district reflects the best of both worlds. We are rooted in a proud agricultural tradition, while benefiting from close proximity to world-class higher education institutions such as Cornell University, Ithaca College, and Cayuga Community College. This unique blend of rural strength and academic collaboration creates a dynamic learning environment where students are inspired, families are engaged, and lifelong learning is celebrated.
