CMS Rockets Rock!:
Congratulations to the three CMS teams that participated in the CNY Rocket Challenge this past June. The teams built and painted the rockets, designed an Egg-stronaut compartment and predicted the highest altitude that their rockets would reach.

Nice work to all of the teams and a big thank you to all of the families for their support!

Cornell Comes to Bolivar!:
Cornell Cooperative Extension visited Mrs. Marko’s class and Mrs. Biviano’s class. During the visit they made terrariums with the scholars. In the terrariums they planted lettuce. The scholars enjoyed making their own terrariums and learning about how to take care of the terrariums. They also learned about what is grown locally. The scholars then brought the terrariums home to watch the lettuce grow!
