Congratulations to our third quarter Honor Roll and High Honor Roll students! 🎉


🎉 Our annual Maker Fair was a huge success! Students in grades PK–6 had an absolute blast exploring, creating, and innovating during this hands-on event. This exciting experience was made possible through our continued partnership with BOCES, and it’s one of our favorite days of the year.
Throughout the day, students rotated through a variety of hands-on learning stations designed to spark creativity and curiosity. Some of the amazing activities included:
🟡 Kaibots – Students got hands-on with basic coding as they programmed small robots to navigate mazes and complete tasks.
🟠 Cubetto – Even our youngest learners dove into the world of coding using this screen-free, story-based robot.
🔵 Bloxels Character Animation – Students brought pixel art to life by designing and animating their own video game characters.
🌸 Tissue Paper Flowers – A colorful and creative station where students expressed their artistic side while building fine motor skills.
🖨️ Sublimation – Budding designers explored digital design and printing techniques to create custom keepsakes.
🧵 Bracelet Looms – Students worked on patterns, patience, and personal expression while weaving their very own bracelets.
This event not only encouraged hands-on learning and collaboration but also introduced students to STEM, art, and design in a way that’s fun and engaging. We are so grateful to BOCES for helping us bring this experience to life year after year!
