Dear Cairo-Durham Families and Community,
After the heartbreaking and tragic loss of Patricia "Tricia" Whitbeck, the District has decided to have an early dismissal, District-wide, on Tuesday, April 29. Tricia's celebration of life will be Tuesday, April 29, 2025, at Richard’s Funeral Home, 29 Bross Street, Cairo, New York from 11 AM to 1 PM, with interment to follow at the Acra Cemetery.
The middle and high schools will dismiss at 10:45 AM, and the elementary school and AM Pre-K will dismiss at 11:45 AM. There will not be any PM Pre-K or PM BOCES.
Our deepest condolences to Darrell Whitbeck and his family.
Sincerely,
The Cairo-Durham Central School District

Students in Mrs. Karker's French classes recently celebrated Mardi Gras in style by creating their own colorful parade floats! Embracing the festivity, students worked to craft vibrant floats, showcasing their creativity. This hands-on activity helped them learn about French culture and Mardi Gras traditions. Afterward, they paraded the floats through the middle school!
