Corinth Central School District

Our CHS Sports Marketing Class is busy analyzing the financial impact of marketing during the March Madness College Basketball Tournament! They created this display with the products of their research as well as a QR code with live scores during tournament play! Great work!

A big shout out to Mrs. Fuller's 4th grade students for their work on the Mountains Research Project! They chose a mountain range from somewhere around the globe and then divided tasks, working as a team on their learning goal. The students had to explain the location, type of mountain range, how it was formed, activities that could be done there as well as dangers, what living things could be found, explain the weather and climate and finally include an interesting fact. As the images show, the unit activity blended collaboration, technology, creativity and engaging independent learning tasks. They are beaming with pride showing off their final products! Great job, 4th graders! Thank you to Mrs. Fuller for facilitating a great unit of study!!

This month's Irish multicultural cafeteria meal also fell on a "NY Thursday." Students at Center Street enjoyed Irish Shepherds Pie (made with NY beef) and Oak Street students dined on Corned Beef with farm fresh cabbage, carrots, potatoes and apples! THANK YOU cafeteria staff!

Dear CCSD Families, This week, our school community will be focusing on the Other People Mindset of Identifying and Appreciating the Good in Others. It’s important to deliberately work to identify and appreciate others’ character strengths. Identifying and appreciating the good in others is a core tenet of the Other People Mindset. This isn’t always what comes naturally. Often, it’s easier to blame others for our problems or find flaws in others to use as excuses for our own jealousy, bitterness, or resentment. The problem is that this negativity usually leads to problems -- for ourselves, for the other person, and for our relationships. Identifying and appreciating the good in other people helps you see the world through a more positive -- and less threatening -- lens. If you’re constantly seeing the negative traits of people, you’re going to think the world is comprised of bad people -- and you’re going to operate from a defensive posture. This isn’t to say that we should be naïve or see the world, and its people, through “rose-colored glasses.” It’s just that we should strive to understand people’s intent. If you see the good in another, they are likely to see the good in you. To practice and encourage the character strength of perspective 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 three questions. We hope that you will also talk to your students about their Positivity Project lessons, activities and discussions in homeroom this week. Have a wonderful week!
