Band Students Score a Silver by Richard Rose On Tuesday, April 16th, the Greenville High School Concert Band directed by Richard Rose attended their annual trip to the NYSSMA Majors band competition at Shaker High School in Latham, NY. Having prepared three selections of Level IV music (The Gathering of the Ranks at Hebron by David Holsinger, The Great Locomotive Chase by Robert W. Smith, and Amparito Roca arranged by Aubrey Winter), the students played admirably for the panel of judges there to critique their performance and overall musicianship. Upon the completion of their performance, they received a Silver rating and some helpful tips on how to continue to improve as a band for future concerts and performances. The band then celebrated with a pizza party to congratulate themselves on all their hard work and dedication to the music program here at Greenville!

Special thanks to Lynette Terrell, Madeline Feltman, Skyla Van Fleet and all the other FFA members that helped to make it a big success. During the day FFA students were able to share how farms produce products that we need to live. To start the fun, elementary students and preschoolers arrived at the high school by wagon, which was pulled by a tractor. They then enjoyed the different stations that were set up to learn from. One station showed the different parts of meat cuts from a cow. Using a blank cow, students were able to stamp the different parts on a piece of paper. Another station showed how butter was made. Each class had the chance to shake their jar of cream to make butter, then enjoy the butter on a cracker. One of the students favorite station was the Pizza Station. There kids learned how the ingredients of a pizza come from the farm to the table. At the end of the presentation they all received a small piece of pizza. At the apple cider station, students were able to see how apple cider was made, and of course enjoyed a sample. Other stations included a milking station, recycling station and planting station, where students were able to plant lettuce. The inside fun included going into Mr. Kerner’s room where they learned how to use hammers, screwdrivers and hand drills. Next into Mrs. Hughes's room they listened to FFA members read an Ag literacy book. At the final inside station the students learned about drones and how they are used in farming. The students loved the animals that were part of Ag Day. They included goats, a sheep, a horse, rabbits, a duck, a rooster, a turken and finally two cows. Thank you to all, who brought your animals, it would not be the same without them as a part of Ag Day. Finally elementary classes and preschools received a bag at the end of the day with activity papers to complete back in class. This year’s Ag Day was cold but a lot of fun. I hope next year is even better. Thank you to all the people who helped out this year. See you all next year!

In March, the Greenville High School Character Education PLC, consisting of staff and students, developed and implemented a school-wide team system. Students were randomly assigned to one of four teams. Each month students compete to earn points for their designated team by exhibiting Spartan STRONG traits and having perfect weekly attendance. Points are calculated on a weekly basis and reported out to the school community. Each month ends in a culminating school-wide event to build a positive community and culture at Greenville. In March, students competed in March Madness through a basketball shoot out competition. Each month the winning team is honored with the Greenville Cup. This cup was made and donated by Ellsworth “Unc” Slater. Greenville would like to thank Mr. Slater for his wonderful contribution to the Greenville High School community!
April 18th Character Education AG FAIR On April 18th, the Greenville High School Character Education PLC organized a school-wide Ag Fair. Students and staff enjoyed a variety of agricultural competitions, including: calf-roping, stacking hay bales, corn hole and much more. Students worked individually, in pairs, and in groups of four to earn points for their character education teams. It was a great team-building experience for all involved. Greenville High School would like to thank a variety of community members and businesses for their charitable contributions, ranging from supplies to prizes. This helped to make the day a success!

As stated on their website, the “RPI Engineering Ambassadors are a group of RPI engineers devoted to inspiring younger students with what they are doing in their chosen major, the newest technological breakthroughs in their field, and the obstacles yet to be overcome.” (http:// engineeringambassadors.union.rpi.edu/index.php) The guest speakers from RPI were Jennifer Vincent (senior) and Sydney Caparaso (junior) - both studying Biomedical Engineering. Their presentation was about the intersection of sciences, engineering and athletics, and included both a slide show and hands-on activities. In one activity, students had electrodes attached to muscles and their arms. As students arm wrestled with each other, a computer displayed a graph showing the number of electrical nerve impulses being sent to the muscles. In another activity, students’ ability to step quickly was measured by how many times the students’ feet broke a beam of light along the floor. In a third activity, students jumped off a platform that measured the strength of their jump. In addition to being exposed to concepts in physics (such as velocity, momentum and moment), students learned about the importance of science and engineering in athletics- especially in the elite professional and Olympic levels. Thanks to the RPI Engineering Ambassadors Program for providing 7th graders in Greenville with such a great experience.

On Wednesday, March 27th, the 6th grade science students were treated to a presentation through the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) Engineering Ambassadors Program. Rachel and Carley are engineer majors and presented information on Wind Energy. The PowerPoint presentation was quite informative and the students were truly interested in the topic having had just worked on a wind unit in class. After the presentation, the students became engineers in small groups to develop a wind turbine. The students had various supplies available to choose from throughout the construction phase. The 6th grade student engineers had the ability to come up and test out their designs and actually hook it up to a monitor to see how much energy their design was able to produce. If time permitted, students returned to their groups to redesign and try to improve the workable design and the amount of energy produced. Students really enjoyed the engineering hands-on experience. The RPI Ambassadors did a great job helping the students to understand about wind energy and how clean, renewable energy is the way of the future.
Two Students with a Giving Heart by Dianne Lewis Haillie Lounsbury and Tatum Lampman had an idea. Since the theme for the middle school dress up dance was “Tropical Paradise” they suggested that we donate money to the “Save the Rainforest” Foundation. These two proactive students put a box out for donations and collected $105 dollars. The Jr FFA will match that amount in money collected from the admission price for the dance. In all, because of the efforts of these two Jr FFA members, our community service project for this year will be one to help in a small but significant way to better this world. We are very proud of these two members!
Trip to Barnes and Nobles Book Store by Melissa Palmer On Friday, April 12th, the students in Mrs. Palmer’s Young Adult Literature class and some of the MS/HS Book Club members took a field trip to Barnes and Noble in Kingston. Students toured the store, learned about the book business and purchased books, along with sampling the wares of the yummy cafe. This trip is an annual tradition and is coordinated and planned by Mrs. Lockwood, Ms. Moylan and Mrs. Palmer.

2019 Duck Race at Camp Oswegatchie by Emily Connolly On Sunday, April 28th, FFA members gathered from all over the state to visit the NYS FFA Camp Oswegatchie for the 25th Adirondack Race. Everyone was welcome to watch as thousands of rubber ducks were poured into Long pond and were tracked as they crossed the finish line. For months FFA members sold ducks as a fundraiser, with proceeds going towards fees for summer camp at Oswegatchie. All the ducks had a chance of winning the race and winning prizes. The camp offered breakfast for its guests, had vendors and plenty of entertainment. This day enables many parents to experience the “Oswegatchie magic” that drives members to come back every winter and summer.

3rd Grade Cultural Celebration by Pam Asam On Thursday, April 18th, students in Mr. Kiefer and Mrs. Quell’s classes participated in a American Revolution Biog- raphy Museum. Over the course of several weeks, students conducted research on an important figure in the American Revolution War and wrote an essay to inform readers about this figure. In addition, students were then expected to take on this role as their figure and give an oral presentation focusing around their early life, accomplishments during the Revolutionary War and what legacy they left behind. Parents were invited to join our celebration and asked our figures questions about who they were and why they were important to our history. Our students did an outstanding job and blew us away with their amazing costumes!

The month of April gave us the opportunity to educate others about autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and celebrate the unique perspectives of those living with ASD.
What is autism? Autism spectrum disorder is a “spectrum condition” that affects individuals differently and to varying degrees. Children with autism may experience a significant impairment in social communication and interaction, as well as the presence of repetitive behaviors and interests. Children who are diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder are unique to one another.
Common characteristics of autism include: Difficulties with social interactions Unusual interest in objects Need for sameness; difficulty with changes in routine Great variation in abilities Under or over reaction to one or more of the five senses Repeated actions
Effects in school functioning: Students with autism are highly driven by their skills and interests and often have many strengths to bring to the school environment. For example, some may have an exceptional memory for math facts or may bring an innovative approach to problem solving. Others may have special skills in art or music. Just like a typical student, every child with autism is unique and has both strengths and weaknesses. Some differences in communication may mean that students with autism need more direct communication and direction than other students. Sometimes common teaching strategies will not be effective for students with autism. Sensory challenges may mean a student will have difficulty coping with loud, bright, or crowded environments. They may feel uncomfortable being touched by others, or making eye contact. These differences in perception and communication sometimes make school stressful for the student and they may need extra help to navigate the social and academic environment.
How to be a friend to a child with autism: You may not always know if a child has autism, but you can observe if a student shows difficulty interacting socially with peers, communicating functionally, or connecting meaningfully with others. Children with autism often do not seek out social interactions, but that doesn’t mean they don’t want them. Encourage your child to invite students with autism to sit with them at lunch, work together in class, or join in an activity. Know and expect differences in the way children with autism interact with others, and show patience and understanding. Forms of nonverbal communication, such as facial expression and body language, are often difficult for children with autism to notice, so it is important to say what you mean. Another way to encourage friendships is to find common interests. This not only provides a common conversation topic, but can be a starting point for social engagement outside of school as well.

What can be shared with the use of these helmets and hats can be very distressing. Head louse is a parasitic insect that can be found on the head, eyebrows, and eyelashes of people. Head lice feed on human blood several times a day and live close to the human scalp. Head lice are not known to spread disease. Head lice is most common among children in day care, pre-school and elementary school. Adults with a child or children in this age group are more likely to get head lice than others. Head lice move by crawling; they cannot hop or fly. Head lice are spread by direct contact with the hair of an infested person. They can also be spread by contact with clothing such as hats, scarves, and coats. Personal hygiene or cleanliness in the home or school has nothing to do with getting head lice. Head lice have three forms: the egg (also called a nit), the nymph (baby), and the adult. The egg/nit are lice eggs laid by the adult head louse at the base of the hair shaft nearest the scalp. Nits are firmly attached to the hair shaft and are oval-shaped and very, very small and hard to see. They often appear yellow or white. Nits are often confused with dandruff, scabs, or hair spray droplets. Nits usually take about 8-9 days to hatch. A nymph is an immature louse that hatches from the nit, a nymph must feed on blood. Nymphs mature into adults about 9-12 days after hatching. An adult louse is about the size of a sesame seed, has six legs, and is tan to grayish-white in color. To survive, adult head lice must feed on blood, and can live up to 30 days on a person’s head but will die within one or two days if it falls off a person. Adults lay about 6 eggs every day.
Head lice and nits are found almost exclusively on the scalp, particularly around and behind the ears and near the neckline at the back of the head. It is uncommon to find them on the eyelashes or eyebrows. Head lice hold tightly to hair with hook-like claws at the end of their six legs. Head lice nits are cemented firmly to the hair shaft and can be difficult to remove even after the nymphs hatch and empty casings remain.
Dogs, cats, and other pets do not play a role in the spread of head lice. Treatment with over the counter medication can be successful but it is important to have a lice comb to remove all of the nits (eggs). If not removed from the hair they can hatch and start all over again. Always call your child’s Health Care Provider to check what product should be used for your child.
