News and Updates
High Schools of Days Gone By
At the Onondaga Historical Association museum from June 11 through October 17, 2010: Rediscovering That Old High School Spirit: Syracuse's High Schools of Days Gone By, a nostalgic look back at several of Syracuse 's former high schools such as North, Central, Blodgett Vocational, Old Nottingham, Eastwood and Valley. These are the places that graduated many of our community's citizens in the decades prior to the 1970s. They were critical institutions for Syracuse 's growth, and the buildings and memories associated with them remain key elements of the city's distinct character. The exhibit features photographs, uniforms, trophies, yearbooks and stories that made the legacies of these schools live today.
Wall of Fame
The next Wall of Fame event is scheduled for October 9, 2010. Click here for information, or contact - nottinghamwall@hotmail.com

Support the Nottingham Library
Nottingham's new librarian, Manami Tezuka, is requesting help in meeting library needs.
Because Nottingham has a large special needs population and a large immigrant population, Ms Tezuka tries to find books that will appeal to students who are of high school age but read at a lower-than-high-school level. She has built up the fiction collection from school funds but she would like to build up the non-fiction collection.
If you would like to support the library, checks may be written to the Nottingham Library and sent to Nottingham High School, 3100 E Genesee St. Syracuse NY 13224.
