This hands-on experience supports the NYS P–2 Science Learning Standards which guide young learners in observing how animals use their behaviors and environments to meet their needs.
Our youngest scientists were so excited to share their favorite bears and show off their snazzy PJs. What a fun and cozy way to bring science to life!

From the Sweethearts and Heroes social media:
"STUDENT SPOTLIGHT - Conley Baldwin has climbed mountains daily for about 12 years, so is it surprising that his next challenge literally involves them? The Corinth High School (NY) freshman was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at age 2, but it hasn’t defined or limited him. He’s an honors student, an athlete and “a genuine source of inspiration to those around him,” his nominator said. “To say Conley is inspiring is an understatement. He truly embodies the title of ‘Sweetheart & Hero,’ making a meaningful and positive impact on his school, his community and the world.” Conley is a role model for his peers in Corinth, and now he’s emerged as a motivational speaker, sharing his journey at conferences hosted by Breakthrough T1D Upstate New York — first in middle school and again this fall. Conley also participates in Type 1 Alpine Adventures and set a goal to snowboard 30,000 vertical feet at 20 different peaks, from New York to Vermont, to raise funds and awareness for Type 1 diabetes. “His determination, spirit and commitment to helping others demonstrate a maturity well beyond his years,” his nominator said. Step into the Student Spotlight, Conley Baldwin! You deserve it! "

Grade 2 Scientists at Work!
Our second graders explored weathering last week through a hands-on investigation that helped them see how wind, water and ice can slowly break down rocks and shape the Earth’s surface.
Students observed, compared and recorded the changes they noticed, acting just like real scientists! Their work aligns with the New York State P–12 Science Learning Standards including:
Science & Engineering Practices:
✓ Making observations
✓ Recording data
✓ Describing patterns
✓ Collaborating with peers during an investigation
Our young learners loved discovering how the world around them is constantly changing! The photos say it all! (Thank you to Ms. Winters for the great photos! More photos on Facebook!)

Over these next two weeks, our school community will focus on the character strength of Gratitude. Gratitude means being aware of and grateful for good things that happen.
Gratitude is about feeling and showing thankfulness. It helps us see the good in others and in the world. People with gratitude are ready to appreciate and return kindness. Expert Robert Emmons says gratitude strengthens relationships because it makes us recognize how others support us.
Out of all 24 character strengths, gratitude is the single best predictor of individual well-being. It is linked to more energy, empathy, happiness, and optimism. The good news is that gratitude can be practiced and strengthened like a muscle. The more we practice it, the more benefits we get.
To practice and encourage this strength at home, please visit The Positivity Project’s mobile-friendly P2 for Families:

We encourage you to ask your students about their social emotional learning curriculum daily lessons, discussions and activities for the character strength: GRATITUDE.
Have a good week!

During the month of October, our high school physical education classes completed a series of physical fitness assessments. Each test carried a point value. At the end of the unit, Coach Bowe and Coach Minholz totaled the scores to identify the top performers in each grade. We recognized the top five girls and boys at every grade level, posting their scores in the locker rooms and gym. Each of these students also received a shirt to celebrate their achievements.
We are proud of all of our high school students for their outstanding effort and dedication throughout this unit. Thank you for your hard work and serving as role models for your peers!

CES Riverhawk Paleontologists in Action!
Check out our amazing elementary students creating their very own trace fossils! They are learning how scientists use clues like footprints, trails and burrows to figure out what ancient life was like. Just like real paleontologists, our students are making observations and drawing conclusions from the evidence they leave behind! This hands-on activity directly connects to the New York State P-12 Science Learning Standards for elementary grades:
NYS Science Standard Connection:
3-LS4-1. Analyze and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of the organisms and the environments in which they lived long ago.
The activity reinforces the Idea that fossils provide evidence about the types of organisms that lived long ago and also about the nature of their environments. By making their own "fossil" tracks, students are gaining firsthand experience in how scientists analyze and interpret data to learn about extinct organisms and the habitats where they lived.
We are proud of our students! Thank you to Ms. Streim for facilitating such an exciting hands-on learning activity for our students!

Last week, our CHS Sports Marketing students visited MetLife Stadium for an incredible behind-the-scenes tour and career exploration event sponsored by the New York Jets.
Students heard from industry professionals about career pathways, internship opportunities, and the importance of “networking now” to build a strong foundation for future success in sports business.
Throughout the day, they explored some of the stadium’s most exclusive areas, including the Commissioner’s Club, NFL locker rooms, press rooms, and luxury suites and even stepped onto the field where the Jets and Giants play their home games!
A huge thank you to MetLife Stadium and the NY Jets for hosting this inspiring and educational experience! Thank you to Mrs. Fay and our CCSD Transportation Department for making this field trip possible!
