Learning While at Home

The Falconer Central School District is committed to assist students who struggle with basic reading, writing, and math skills.   Assistance in the classroom is only part of a student's educational experience.  Students must also continue their learning experiences at home.  Parents are instrumental in over-seeing their child's learning experiences while they are not at school.  Below, there are many things parents can do to help!

Assist your student in becoming familiar with their local community library.  The first thing is to assist your student in obtaining their own library card.
