Some riding and boarding tips for our students. He described ways to stay safer on bicycles and skateboards. And, btw, did you know that you really can get a speeding ticket on a bicycle?!?!!

Enough said. I loved Matt's shirt!

Fire safety

As part of our Basic Aid Training- BAT- Fireman Werkamp came to give us some fire safety tips. Did you know it could be 600 degrees near the ceiling in a fire and only 100 degrees crawling on the ground?! Fascinating! Thanks, Mr. Werkamp!

Great job and thanks to the FFA members and farmers who taught our kids!

We really learned a bunch about animals and farming! Thank you!

Agriculture Day at Cortland!

The kiddos loved seeing the animals (even if they did smell a little different!) and hearing about the milk industry, beekeeping and forestry techniques.
