Extracurricular Activities
Pupils who remain after school for any activity must report directly to the teacher in charge of the activity at dismissal time. All school activities must be supervised by a member of the faculty. Extracurricular activities for Oswego Middle School will be organized during the fall term.Student Council
The student council is an organization of the whole student population of Oswego Middle School. It is an effective voice for students that are accepted by students, faculty, and administration. There are no limits to the contributions that students can make to their education by participating in student council.
Responsibilities
A good student council always strives to:
- maintain an open minded policy
- develop effective communications with students, faculty and administration
- earn students, faculty and administrative respect
- support social activities, educational programs, and service to others
- build a tradition that will be looked back upon as a cornerstone to productive lives.

Focus Forward:
The Focus Forward Program meets on Mondays and Wednesdays after-school from 2:30 - 3:20 pm. Transportation is provided. After-school sessions begin in late September until early December and pick back up in late January until May. A Google Classroom is provided for updates and Parent Square messages will be sent as reminders.
Focus Forward is a school-based mentoring program that strives to enrich the lives of students in our community. We match middle-school students with trained and supported undergraduate mentors at SUNY Oswego, under the supervision of professional staff, who help provide the academic and social support necessary for each student to achieve their full potential. We work to build students' self-confidence and self-efficacy while giving them the tools they need to be effective learners.
