"We have a repeat Chess Club champion! Sam Nelson defeated Cooper Philo in the tiebreaker match in the 2026 Chess Club Double elimination Tournament.
Sam Nelson is a back to back champion! Cooper didn’t make it easy as Cooper came back, won the consolation bracket and defeated Sam to get the finals to go to a tiebreaker! Their matches were always close!
Myles Teeple was in third place and Noah Watkins and Mason Kirk were our top Middle School finishers.
It was a great season for the Chess Club as we had over 30 members! Every week we had multiple people show up, play great games and show great sportsmanship as every game ended with a handshake! Nice job future Grandmasters!"
Congratulations to all! Keep on playing, Riverhawks!

On Sunday, March 8, CHS senior, Keegan Baker, was recognized for: Outstanding Academic Achievement, School and Community Leadership and Football Performance.
The dinner, a semi-formal event held in Albany, recognized an elite group of student athletes from the 50+ section 2 schools who were selected for this esteemed honor. Keegan attended the
College Hall of Fame Scholar Athlete Award dinner with his alumni parents, Brielle and Nate. Nate was also a CHS varsity football player and has clearly passed on his passion for athletics to Keegan!
Keegan has had memorable football and wrestling seasons! Look for him on the baseball diamond soon!
Congratulations, Keegan!

No passport? No problem! Using our CCSD virtual reality headsets, Mrs. Skinner's social studies classes took a virtual tour of Egypt and China this week. From sailing the Nile and exploring pyramids and temples to walking the Great Wall and gasping at the beauty of the Forbidden City, our students are becoming true global citizens! The excitement was palpable as ancient history came to life!
Kudos to Mrs. Skinner for embracing this exciting technology tool to bring the world into our classrooms!
Thank you to Mr. Badaszewski and Mrs. Giaculli in the CCSD Technology Dept. for their support of our CMS global adventures!

"The girls varsity basketball team wrapped up their season on Monday night with a loss in the Class B Section 2 championship game. This ended an extremely successful season with many exciting wins throughout the season. Whitney Cameron and Bella Craig were named to the Section 2 All-Tournament team after the championship as well.
The coaching staff is incredibly proud of the team and thankful for the hard work they put into the season every day. We are proud of the sportsmanship they displayed and the role models they are to young female athletes within the community. I want to thank the 3 seniors for their hard work and contributions to the program during their time in high school; Alexis Hall, Bailey Hall, and Whitney Cameron. Congratulations to Whitney on becoming a 1000 point scorer and good luck in your future basketball journey. The rest of the team consisted of Juniors: Kenadee Flint and Megan Smolinski, Sophomores: Sage Shanahan, Heather Pita, and Bella Craig, Freshmen: Lylah Dishon and Gracie Jones, and 8th Grader: Lexi Craig.
I am very thankful for the hard work from the coaching staff, Coach Avery and Coach Fauler. They always helped game plan and were an integral part of the team's success this year.
Lastly, I want to thank the community, Corinth students, Corinth teachers and staff, and the families for all the support this year! We couldn't have done it without you!"
We thank you, Coach Suppes, Coach Avery and Coach Fauler, and our Riverhawks for giving our school and community so many reasons to cheer and be proud this season! We look forward to 2026-27!!! Go, Riverhawks!!!

Students combined their ELA and Science skills with the arts to design and build imaginative models inspired by space. Through this hands-on project, they explored the artistic process, turning their ideas into creative representations of what life and exploration beyond Earth might look like.
As they planned, created and reflected on their work, students thought deeply about questions like: What would it be like to travel into space? What might we discover beyond our planet? Their models highlighted important concepts about the universe while also showcasing their creativity and storytelling skills.
From brainstorming and design to final creations, these young innovators demonstrated curiosity, collaboration and a true excitement for learning.
Great work by Ms. Chandler’s class for reaching for the stars and showing how science, literacy and art can come together to spark imagination and deeper understanding!

The book is the first in a trilogy and 80 copies were provided to grade 4 as part of a grant. Anne also shared her journey to become a published author with our students.
Thank you to our 4th grade team for facilitating such an exciting day of learning about American history in our region, supporting both our social studies and ELA curriculum!

"The Girls Varsity Basketball team traveled to HVCC and won their Class B Sectional Semifinal game versus Coxsackie-Athens 55-49. It was a tremendous team effort with the Riverhawks playing well on both sides of the court. Corinth was down 1 after the first quarter, and then took over and controlled the rest of the game, and led by 12 at halftime. Any time Coxsackie-Athens made a run, the girls responded and kept their composure to close out the game.
Bella Craig played one of her best games scoring 25 points while playing fantastic defense with 6 steals. Whitney Cameron did a great job running the offense today, and finished with 14 after hitting some big 3s to stop any run from Coxsackie-Athens. Lexi Craig and Lylah Dishon did a great job running the court and getting easy buckets in transition. It was a great team effort and the team now looks ahead to the Sectional Finals on Monday night at 6pm at HVCC."
We are thankful to all of the Riverhawk fans who supported our girls today! Keep it going on Monday night as the Riverhawks face Mechanicville in the Section 2 Class B Championship!
(Reminder: Students in grades 9-12 who would like to ride the spectator bus need to email Ms. Haskell to reserve a spot! Student Senate will pay for your ticket to the game if you ride the bus!)
