For the Safety of Our Children
The Sandy Creek Central School District recognizes that the safety of our children is a responsibility of the entire community. We offer this link on our website to promote this safety.
The New York State Sex Offender Registration Act ("SORA") permits local law enforcement agencies to disseminate information to the community concerning Level 3 and Level 2 registered sex offenders.
According to SORA, there are 2 reportable classifications of sex offenders.

Level 3
Level 2
Risk of Repeat Offense
High
Moderate
The law provides disclosure of:
  1. Exact address
  2. Picture
  1. An approximate address based on zip code
  2. Picture

The District provides this information for:
  • Our faculty and staff. Staff members are instructed to report any observation of a suspicious nature on or near our grounds or in any proximity to our children.
  • Parents and guardians, so that they may take appropriate actions to protect the safety of their children.
Please teach your children to avoid situations of danger using these guidelines from sources such as the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children: http://www.missingkids.com.

What children need to know:
  • Be careful around strangers.
  • Keep a safe distance from cars.
  • Not to move toward a car with a stranger asking directions.
  • Always check first with you or a trusted adult before they go anywhere, accept anything, or get in a car with anyone. This applies to older children as well.
  • Always take a friend and not go out alone when they go places or play outside.
  • It's okay to say NO if someone tries to touch them or treats the in a way that makes them feel scared, uncomfortable, or confused and to get out of the situation as quickly as possible.
  • Tell you or a trusted adult if they feel scared, uncomfortable, or confused.
  • They have the right to be safe and there will always be someone to help them.
