Congratulations to our CHS World Language Honor Societies students for their achievements. Here are highlights from advisors, Mrs. Mullin and Mr. Petteys:
"On March 28th, we inducted 34 new students into the Corinth Spanish and French honor societies, a testament to their hard work, studies, growth, and accomplishments in their given world language. It was an elegant ceremony celebrating world cultures and languages.
Thank you to Mr. Schenone for the inspiring opening remarks, encouraging students to remain inquisitive while studying as knowing world languages and cultures can open many doors and form great connections.
A very special shout out to 2016 Corinth alumna, Natalie Collura, for returning to Corinth to share her experiences. She has used French and Spanish in both her professional and personal life. As a 2014 inductee, Natalie continues to make us proud!
This night would not be possible without the support and inspiration from our hardworking world language department: Mrs. Mullin, Mr. Petteys, Mrs. Siano, and Ms. Lemelin."

A big thank you from the C.A.R.E. Committee to Emily Dingman for her National Honor Society project of collecting snacks for students!! Those snacks - and the gracious gift card - will be distributed to our teachers and then shared with our students. CARE is so grateful for the support of Emily and the National Honor Society.
You have modeled the values we study in our Positivity Project Social Emotional Learning curriculum, including the "Other People Mindset." Kudos!

Our grade 3 students enjoyed an Asian Food Festival as a culminating activity on their unit about Japan. They learned how students in Japan prepare their own lunches, clean their own school and have learned how their school year is different from ours. Before break, students celebrated their learning with tea, rice and noodles. They gave it a try with chopsticks and did very well. We wanted to say thank you to Moon Star in Lake Luzerne providing this wonderful experience.
Kudos to the grade 3 team for supporting our Culturally Responsive-Sustaining Educational framework as we endeavor to expose our students to diverse cultures around the world!

Our varsity track team kept busy during the spring break!
The snowstorm that left 9 inches didn’t deter our team from having to clear snow on the track to practice.. On Friday, about 25 track athletes and all coaches cleared the entire track in about an hour and a half. We as you can see had some fun! The coaches want to thank all the track athletes for their help in getting the track cleared so that we can practice and have our first meet of the season this coming Tuesday at home!
Great job, athletes and coaches! We wish our Riverhawks/Mountaineers a great season!

Please let us know on the attached form if you are willing to display a few posters at your business!

Dear CCSD Families,
This week our school community will be focusing on the character strength of Perspective. Perspective means you appreciate when people see things in different ways. You have the ability to understand the world from multiple points of view.
Perspective is also referred to as wisdom and is distinct from intelligence. People with this strength are sought out for advice because they see the big picture and can make sense of the world’s complexity. This strength of perspective gives individuals the ability to see to the heart of difficult matters and achieve clarity. Most importantly, they are honest and behave in an ethically consistent manner.
Perspective helps an individual make sense of the world. It provides clarity on what matters and what does not. Being able to see things from multiple angles helps individuals remain calm and learn from mistakes; they are typically highly self-aware. Reflecting on their own feelings, thoughts, and motives helps them understand and empathize with other people. These individuals are strong listeners and ask great questions. Individuals with the strength of perspective help their group get through difficult or uncertain circumstances because they’re poised and can identify opportunities for success.
To practice and encourage the character strength of perspective with your child, please visit the Positivity Project’s P2 for Families (password: P2), where together you can watch a video, read a quote, and talk about the answers to three questions.
Have a wonderful week!
