From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Southern Cayuga High School is a rural secondary school (grades 7-12) in Poplar Ridge, Cayuga County, New York.
SCHS is operated by Southern Cayuga Central Schools.
In 2003 it had some 585 students and 45 teachers. The student body was 98% white, and 24% were eligible for free lunch, higher than the state average of 15%. Its New York State School Report Card reports that it exceeded all three required standards (graduation in English and Mathematics, and dropout rate) in 2001.
The school's student-produced newspaper is called The Source, and is associated with a one-semester journalism class.
Recently the school has experienced mold problems that have caused health problems for students and teachers.
