The CFMS Builder Club stirred up something amazing this week!
Our team participated in the CHOW Kids Can Build Challenge with an incredible creation: a giant KitchenAid mixer titled "Stirring Up Support for CHOW."
Made from 2,412 cans weighing a total of 2,091 pounds, this impressive build was designed to raise awareness and support for CHOW’s mission to fight hunger in our community.
Every element of the design—from the detailed structure to the precise calculations—was imagined and brought to life by our talented team of students.

This week, Mrs. Doolittle’s CFHS art students visited Mrs. Sickler's classroom at CFE for a special project. First-grade students had recently created drawings of their own unique monsters. To bring their creations to life, the high school art students transformed these drawings into ceramic versions of each creature.
During the visit, the ceramic pieces were presented to the first graders, who were very excited to see the final result! This was a fun and memorable experience for all of the students.
a Journée de la Francophonie at SUNY Albany was a blast for Madame Ramsden's college-level French students! The day kicked off with an exciting chasse au trésor (treasure hunt) around the SUNY Albany campus, helping everyone to get familiar with the grounds. Next, students donned their dancing shoes for a vibrant music and dance workshop, learning moves from French-speaking countries like France, Canada, and Senegal. After a delicious lunch, the fun continued with engaging conversations with native French speakers from Belgium, the Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Morocco, Quebec, Mali, Togo, and Haiti. The students had an amazing time immersing themselves in diverse cultures while practicing their French skills!
Yesterday, our Juniors attended the 2025 College Fair at SUNY Broome, where they had the incredible opportunity to explore their higher education options! From meeting with college representatives to learning about different programs and pathways, this event is one step in planning for their futures.
