A huge shout out to Annaka Stauring today! Annaka was a finalist at the Young Playwright’s competition @ Syracuse Stage and her play was performed by Syracuse University students @Syracuse Stage last night. Over 200 students from across central NY submitted plays and hers was one of 8 chosen! Bravo Annaka!!
A production based on a classic TV show means we made a few... classic edits to look the part!
We reckon that we had a great time with the Clampett Family at this weekend's production of "The Beverly Hillbillies"! We'll have a few more batches of photos to share later on!
Congratulations to the cast and crew of The Beverly Hillbillies!! Your hard work and commitment to each other led to two outstanding and well attended performances this past weekend!!
Volunteers across the U.S. can give back to their communities by participating in the third annual National Historic Marker Day on Friday, April 28. CHS students from the MVCC Dual Credit NYS History class taught by Mrs. Harney have been learning about public history and what they can do to preserve and honor historic places in our own community.
Students learned about the historic marker application process, site selection, and cleaning and maintenance. Four students from the class put their skills to the test by cleaning two Camden historic markers in town, the Camden Town Hall and Scriba Patent signs. Students observed and accessed the condition of the signs to determine what additional maintenance could be done down the road if the community chooses to do so. According to the Historical Marker Database, there are more than 177,000 markers in the US. The NYS History students will research to verify if the markers they cleaned are registered with the HBDB.org site.

Connected Community Schools Site Coordinator Cole Brown recently went into Mrs. Holmes' classroom during 3rd and 7th period to teach students about job interviews. Students performed mock interviews with their teachers to demonstrate what to do and what not to do during a job interview!
Students have also spent class time working on resumes and cover letters, and will be working with Cole on another round of interviews as they get ready for college, trade school, or the job market!
It was a busy day on the diamonds yesterday with JV Softball, Varsity Softball, and Varsity Baseball all hosting Rome Free Academy!
Students in our Design for Drawing and Production classes at CHS recently built Solar Cookers! On Friday, they attempted to roast some hot dogs during a nice 80 degree day.
Students had to prepare their device by angling it towards direct sunlight. They recorded the temperature of the meat using a laser thermometer. Every student that tested reached over 100 degrees with the highest temperatures hitting over 145 degrees fahrenheit! The classes were led by Michael Petrie, Jeremy Calkins, and Jake Bates.
