SCHOOL COMMUNITY CREATES A NEW MASCOTT

The sense of a new school community has inspired the students at Sullivan BOCES to select a school mascot. After much discussion and input from students of all ages, the Black Dragon became the official mascot of Sullivan BOCES.

The impact of having a mascot has created a strong sense of pride amongst the students. Not only has the dragon promoted school spirit and unity it has fostered a positive school climate. The dragon has even made its way into the PBIS efforts at the school and has been a positive reinforcement for students of all ages.

Thanks to the generosity of the BOCES staff and a fundraising event, BOCES was able to purchase a Tshirt for each of our students in our Special and Alternative Education Programs. This has allowed every student to be part of the Black Dragon school community.

Every Friday has been designated as Black Dragon day. Students are encouraged to wear their Black Dragon shirts to demonstrate their BOCES pride on Fridays and at activities and events.
