Hello, CCS Families!
To ensure a successful first day of school tomorrow, your child will need to login to his/her school account today. Students need to access Google Classroom and join their classes prior to tomorrow's Zoom meetings. The Zoom meeting information is found in Google Classroom.
As a reminder, use the new login email: firstname.lastname@cooperstowncs.org, which was distributed with your student's device.
Please contact the help desk at 607.766.3800 if you have any issues logging into the account. They are available from 7:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. only.
Thanks so much!
TODAY, September 8th, 2020, CCS Students in grades 7-12 can continue to pick up devices and materials related to their coursework for 2020-2021 and CCS Students in grades 2-6 can pick up their materials related to their classroom assignments. Please wear masks and practice social distancing. All pick-up takes place at the CCS Jr./Sr. High School gymnasium 9:00 A.M. until 7:00 P.M.
Greetings CCS Families,
You are receiving this communication regarding your student with special education needs at Cooperstown CSD. Last week a representative from the Pupil Personnel Services office likely contacted you regarding specific plans for your child. Since then, the COVID-19 crisis has required us to change our plans and ALL students must remain in a remote learning mode. Yesterday, the Otsego County Department of Health highly recommended schools engage in remote only learning through and including September 23rd. When DOH makes a statement to this effect we take it very seriously as health and safety are our first concern.
With that said, the start date for any in person special education has changed to September 24th. I apologize for the frequent changes. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call the office of Pupil Personnel at 607-547-4449. Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely,
Kevin J Kelly
Director of Pupil Personnel
Cooperstown CSD
CCS device and materials pick-up begins at noon today for CCS Grades 7-12. Please come to the entrance closest to the HS gymnasium, wear a mask and practice social distancing.

As we continue to prepare for the fall reopening of CCS, Jr./Sr. High School Principal Ann Meccariello has been taking time to provide each incoming 7th Grade student, along with one parent, a personal tour of the CCS Jr./Sr. High School facilities. Personal tours take place during July and August and students receive their schedule along with other personal information to help ease the process of moving into the Jr./Sr. High School facility. Personal tours will take the place of orientations that were previously cancelled due to closure during Covid-19. CCS looks forward to welcoming the Class of 2026 onto the Jr./Sr. High campus.
