The 11th and 12th grade STAR classes went on a college visit to Russell Sage College in Albany. The classes toured the campus and had lunch. This is the second college field trip the 11th and 12th grade STAR students took this year as part of the program's goal to expose the students to various colleges in the area.
Mrs. Gori and Ms. Edwards were the chaperones for the trip.


Ms. Jones' PreCalculus students were recently working on proving Trig Identities and she allowed them to work wherever they would like. The class posted responses on windows, whiteboards, paper and even a cardboard box. They were scattered around the room writing up their work. Way to go, students!
