High School Students Tour State Museum Thanks to Target Grant

Thanks to a grant from Target Field Trips, 41 SHS students had an opportunity to visit the New York State Museum last month. GE Students from Ms. Michelle Lax’s special class (SC) enjoyed many exhibits: the Rockwell Kent Great Arts series, the Adirondack wilderness, and the 911 Rescue and Recovery exhibit. The group also enjoyed the interactive discovery center where they participated in hands-on learning experiences and utilized state-of-the-art technology.

On June 5th, GE students enrolled in SC classes went to Collins Park in Scotia for a picnic. They enjoyed a day of fun, games, and food. This day was a celebration for the students in the program to show what a successful school year they had. An event across High School Houses, there were over 70 students who participated. Fortunately the weather cooperated and everyone had a great time!
