Dear Families,
This week our school community will be kicking off our Positivity Project Social-Emotional-Learning curriculum. This week, we are focusing on the Other People Mindset. This means anything that builds relationships is going to make you happy.
The mission of the Positivity Project is to empower America’s youth to build positive relationships by understanding, appreciating, and exemplifying the character strengths in us all. People who have strong positive relationships do five things consistently - these are the five practices of the Other People Mindset. 1. Recognize the good in other people, 2. Recognize that everything you say or do affects other people, 3. Support others when they struggle, 4. Cheer people on when they succeed, 5. Remain present when giving people your attention. People who have a strong Other People Mindset are able to build and maintain strong, positive relationships with others.
While mental health is incredibly complex, we do know that positive relationships can help people become happier, healthier, and more resilient. And, the Positivity Project believes that educators have a huge opportunity and vital role to play in this endeavor. Our nation’s youth spends a large percentage of their time in school. By deliberately and consistently teaching students that relationships are important -- and that positive relationships are cultivated through character and the Other People Mindset -- educators can roll back these trends and create strong citizens and leaders for our communities and countries.
To practice and encourage the character strength of prudence with your child, please visit the Positivity Project’s P2 for Families where together you can watch a video, read a quote and talk about the answers to the 3 questions.
If you have any questions, please reach out to our SEL/DEI Coordinators, Patricia Siano or Christina Taylor.
Have a wonderful week!

It was a big day on the field for our Boys Varsity Soccer team! Here is a game recap from Coach Deso:
"The Corinth Riverhawks hosted last year's defending league champion Bolton-Warrensburg yesterday morning in a make-up game that was a result of Friday's rainout.
The battle that would ensue would be an epic dogfight, but in the end, the Riverhawks would come away victorious, toppling the Eagles in an exciting double overtime victory.
First half action would test the durability of each team's defense, and neither was showing any vulnerability. Corinth's back four: Wiseman, Hunt, Shanahan and Petteys remained stout and unforgiving, while BW, led by Tyler Trowbridge, showed no sign of willingly conceding a goal.
It would take the better part of 33 minutes before anyone would successfully break through the defensive line. After a scrum in front of the net off a serve from Corinth's Sam Tangora, Logan West would battle for a shot, which would glance off a BW defender to put the Riverhawks up by one at halftime.
Within seven minutes of the second half, BW's Louis Lang drove down the field, pulled the defenders with him, and was able to find a streaking Ben Holcomb to bury the equalizer for the Eagles.
Overtime would see opportunities from both squads, with Corinth GK, Owen Baker and BW keeper, Keith Sonley responding when it mattered to keep the game even. The game winning goal would happen with 3:30 left in the second overtime. Corinth's Sam Tangora would serve up a far post corner kick, a scramble ensued in front of the net, and somehow the Riverhawk's Tyler Smolinski would find a way to will the ball in the back of the net for the game-winning goal.
The Riverhawks have now notched their third consecutive victory, placing them 2-0-0 in the league and 3-2-0 overall. The boy's next game is a big one on Wednesday, September 13th, battling at home against the Ft. Ann Cardinals... come out and show your support!"
Congratulations, Riverhawks!

Gage Bardin won his match up 5, Parker Duerr-Clark and Collin Vincent each won their matches up 3 and Cooper Philo won his match up 4. ,br> The most exciting match belonged to our #1 player, Aiden Schurr, who on the last hole making his putt to go up 1 and complete the sweep.
The golf team is 1-0 on the year and travels to Hadley Luzerne on Monday. Nice job team!" Congratulations, athletes!

It was a big night for our Boys Varsity Soccer team last night. Here are some highlights from Coach Deso:
Final score (in second OT) Corinth-2 HL- 1 "Corinth travelled to Hadley-Luzerne yesterday for their league opener under sunny and very warm skies. The onset of the contest brought a stiff battle to win the midfield, and Corinth gained possession and control of the game early on.
Possession and control would not be enough in the equation to produce goals though, at least early on. The Riverhawks were able to penetrate deep into the Eagle defensive end, but were unable to score. The Eagles struck first on a penalty kick, and Corinth would have to fight back from behind in the second half.
The Riverhawks took the field with purpose and were a team intent on evening up the score. Shot after shot would test the Eagle back line and it would be 30 minutes into the second half before Corinth was rewarded for their efforts. A scrum in front of the net ensued, and Tyler Smolinski was able to send it home to tie up the game.
Overtime would arrive, and there was no shortage of intensity. The first overtime would see several exchanges in possession, breakaways on both sides, but no one could find the golden goal. That would come with but three minutes remaining in the second half.
Hunter Shanahan carried the ball down the line where he would beat the defender, serve a beautiful ball inside the 18, which was eagerly greeted by the head of Tyler Smolinski and placed perfectly in the goal to secure the victory for the Riverhawks.
Credit to both teams for persevering through a warm and challenging environment on the afternoon... a well-played contest! Corinth moves to 1-0-0 in league play, 2-2-0 overall, and will take on Bolton-Warrensburg at home on Friday at 4:30... come support this incredibly hardworking team!"
Congratulations, RIVERHAWKS!!!!
