This month Wayland-Cohocton staff were given the opportunity to earn their CPR certification and Narcan administration education for free during two after-school training sessions. WC;s own Ms. Kelly Brittingham taught the CPR class as a certified instructor and each participant left with a safety mask for administering CPR. Connie Terry of the Steuben Prevention Coalition Opioid Committee trained the attending staff in the administration of Narcan to combat opioid overdose. Each attendee was presented with two doses of Narcan, gloves, and a safety mask. Training was organized by Director of Facilities and Safety Scott Manne.
Birdhouses were the order of the day in middle school technology taught by Mr. Weiand. Students were intent on getting it right as the houses were assembled.
Ag in the Classroom Educator Stephanie McKinley of Steuben County Cornell Cooperative Extension visited third graders where the hot topic was corn! Ms. McKinley read a book about how corn grows and all of the different types of corn and its uses. She brought along some samples of corn as well. The most fun however was playing in the oobleck - which is a cornstarch and water mixture that acts as a solid when force is applied and a liquid when it is left alone. Ms. McKinley also shared that she will be bringing updates to each visit about Lily, a young calf the Ag in the Classroom program has adopted. Ag in the Classroom connects agricultural learning to elementary classrooms through a partnership with the Steuben County Cornell Cooperative office.
The high school robotics team is in the thick of preparing for its competition in February. While the team formed last year thanks to the strong advocacy of its members, this will be the first year the team competes. The First Tech Challenge is the next step of the competition program created by FIRST Inspires and requires advanced engineering skills which truly stretch the learning of these highly motivated students. The group is eternally grateful to Mr. Paul Holubek whose vast knowledge of almost everything keeps the team moving forward.
The recipient of the High School Golden Eagle Award for the week of October 15th was Anakin York-Miller. Anakin volunteered to be the Eagle at the high school pep rally. He did a great job hyping up the crowd and getting the students excited for homecoming. Being up there in front of a field house full of students takes a lot of guts and its great that Anakin stepped up to the plate!
