Wayland-Cohocton thanks all Veterans for their service to the United States.

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.
