Whitney Point Students Dive into Hands-On Science Exploration
Fourth and fifth graders at the Tioughnioga Riverside Academy (TRA) have been busy observing, inquiring, and investigating during Science class!
In fourth grade, students have been exploring the "Soil, Rocks & Landforms" unit, where they examined different types of soil, investigated how landforms change over time, and learned about the forces that shape our planet. Meanwhile, fifth graders have been engaged in the "Earth & Sun" unit, discovering the relationship between Earth's rotation, seasonal changes, and how the Sun influences life on our planet.
These hands-on lessons foster curiosity and critical thinking, helping students develop a deeper understanding of the natural world.
Looking ahead, fourth graders will transition to the "Environments" unit in life science, while fifth graders will explore "Mixtures & Solutions," diving into chemistry-based experiments.

Broome County Executive Jason Garnar and Legislator Matthew Hilderbrant proclaim today as Whitney Point Field Hockey Day.
Last week, our high school students wrapped up the final tour of local manufacturing facilities with a visit to Atwood Tool and Machine Inc. They got a unique behind-the-scenes experience guided by a Whitney Point alum, who shared insights about the family business.
This high-tech tour allowed our students to see advanced manufacturing operations in action, giving them valuable hands-on insight into the field and potential career paths in this growing industry.
A huge THANK YOU to the Atwood family for hosting us and supporting the next generation of skilled professionals!

Congratulations to the TRA Students of the Month in October for Grades 6, 7, and 8! They were recognized with donuts and hot cocoa.
Students and staff at the CEA came together to honor local veterans on Friday, Nov. 8. Mr. Hildebrant worked with students in grades K-3 to learn "The Star-Spangled Banner" and other patriotic songs to perform. Veterans introduced themselves, shared their service history and then were honored by their students with a flower and card during the assembly. Thank you to all who have served!
