Mrs. Streim's third graders became paleontologists in class recently, digging for fossils! They had to identify which fossils they found: body, trace or amber fossils. What an exciting hands-on science activity! Great job, Riverhawks!
We have exciting news to share from our World Language Department:
Over the summer, Alison Toth was accepted for admission into the NSHSS (The National Society of High School Scholars) This prestigious society recognizes learners with a commitment to academic excellence as they prepare to become the leaders of tomorrow.
Mr. Petteys nominated Alison in the spring and says this: "Alison is a top-achiever in French class as well as in all of her other courses. I had never, at that point in my career, had a student that took her studies so seriously and who excelled so far as a result. Her French class last year resembled a Freshman or Sophomore level college class. I enjoyed teaching her upper level grammar and vocabulary. I know she will excel in her Senior Year and in life. Bon job et bonne chance!"
Alison is enrolled in French 4 at CHS this year and earning college credit with Madame Mullin! Congratulations, Alison! Keep up the great work! Photos courtesy of Mr. Petteys

It was an exciting sectional game for our Boys Varsity Soccer team this evening. Coach Deso shared incredible highlights from the match up:
"The #7 seed Corinth hosted #10 seed Catskill in the first round of the Class B Sectional Tournament. The game was tense from the opening minutes, each team feeling the other out, looking for holes to exploit. Catskill would be the first to strike. The Cats would earn a corner kick early on, just seven minutes into the contest, and find the back of the net to put Catskill up 1-0. The Riverhawks, no stranger to this position, maintained their composure and were able to recover from this momentary setback.
It would take another 25 minutes of pounding the pitch, battling for 50/50 balls, testing the Catskill defense time and again, before the Riverhawks would finally earn the equalizer with just over eight minutes remaining in the half. Sam Tangora would find himself on the receiving end of a deflected ball inside the box, and would hammer home a shot that would knot the score at one at halftime.
The second half was an all out, physical battle. The Riverhawk defense of Danny Hunt, Michael Petteys, Hunter Shanahan and Lucca Giaculli was tested time and time again, but held firm in staving off the thirsty Cat attack. There were moments when the Cats were able to find space and break through the defense, only to be met by Corinth keeper Owen Baker, who would make a number of spectacular, critical saves when his reflexes mattered most! The game seemed destined for overtime, but with 1:19 remaining in regulation, the Riverhawks would earn their final corner kick of the game. Sam Tangora laid a beautiful serve into the box, which was then volleyed by Hunter Shanahan to find the twine and the come-from-behind, 2-1 sectional victory for Corinth!
The Riverhawks, now 12-4-1, heads on the road to compete against Voorheesville on Saturday, October 26th at 3:00pm in the Class B Sectional quarterfinals. If you can make the trip, we would love to have your support as we take on the #2 seed in an effort to keep our season going strong! Thank you to all of the family and friends who continue to support this team, not just today, but for your loyalty throughout the season!"
