Good afternoon parents, guardians and all those interested in all the amazing events our students participate in that are also presented on a live platform, so everyone can attend. We would like to explain our streaming of these events. As we all know starting in 2020 based on necessity we began to live stream these live events with varying degrees of success based on the content of the event. These streamed events have been presented with the technology the district had on hand or have purchased in the years since, however when streaming concerts it requires specialized equipment that the district is working on acquiring. With a worldwide backlog of technology equipment, it may be another six to eight months before this type of technology might be in place at St. Lawrence Central. While we work to provide a more consistent streaming platform, we would recommend attending these events in person. If you cannot attend in person, we ask that you remember that the students and their teachers have worked diligently to provide you with the best product possible. We also ask that you keep negative comments off the live stream and contact an administrator or technology office with the negative experience, so we can better serve everyone in the future.
