Supporting Student Success:
The Commitment of Lowville Academy High School

At Lowville Academy, our commitment to student success goes beyond academic excellence. We strive to provide a well-rounded education that encompasses physical well-being and artistic expression alongside rigorous academics. Our strong emphasis on physical education and extracurricular programs, coupled with outstanding visual and performing arts opportunities, ensures that our students have a holistic educational experience.

Despite our focus on providing a supportive environment, we understand that there are times when students face challenges that go beyond the classroom. Whether it be academic struggles, emotional difficulties, or social issues, it is crucial that we offer the necessary support to help our students navigate these obstacles.

To address these needs, the Lowville Academy High School has an established Support Team that meets weekly to collaborate and strategize on how best to assist students in need. The team comprises a group of compassionate and experienced individuals including our counselors, administration, and safety officer: Ms. Mel Bush, Mrs. Mary Compo, Mrs. Andrianna Crawford, Mrs. Sarah Clemons, Mr. Brian Hanselman, Mr. Gil Monnat, Mr. Skyler Tuttle, and Ms. Elizabeth Western. Each member brings a unique perspective and expertise to the table, ensuring a comprehensive approach to supporting our students.

We believe that emotional health is as vital as academic learning in shaping well-rounded individuals who can thrive in all aspects of life.  As George Evans stated, “Every student can learn, just not on the same day, or the same way.”

We are incredibly fortunate to have such a dedicated staff who consistently prioritize the well-being and success of our students. By providing a strong support system and fostering a culture of care and understanding, we are committed to helping our students overcome challenges and thrive both academically and emotionally.

Yours in Education,

Brian E. Finn
High School Principal
