Community Involvement
As part of our core philosophy, we are committed to making our local Central New York community a safe and peaceful one. Being a contributing member of our community is a natural extension of improving the lives of our students. Happier, more confident students lead to happier families, which creates more cohesive communities.
Our school continually seek out opportunities to contribute to our community, including self-defense seminars, charity fundraisers, and educational demonstrations.
