S.T.A.R.S. Program - Upcoming Events

The Bryant School S.T.A.R.S. program has a busy couple of weeks coming up.  With three special presentations/field trips, they're bound to have some fun!

On Thursday, 3/20, students will travel to the intermediate school for a special presentation by "Wildlife Defenders,"  a group of adults who've suffered traumatic brain injuries.  They're coming in to tell their stories and introduce students to the wild and exotic animals that have assisted them in their rehabilitation.

On 3/21, students from the S.T.A.R.S. program and the PRISM program will be taking a trip up to the Swain Tubing Park, where they'll enjoy some tubing and science/math enrichment.  Mr. Gebhard, a teacher at Intermediate school, has prepared a special Math/Science lesson for students, here they'll measure distance, time, incline and force to determine their top speed when tubing down the hill!

On 3/25, The Elmira Jackals professional hockey team will be visiting the Bryant School (and all of the other schools in the A3 Consortium!) to talk about their lives on and off the ice!  The students are looking forward to getting a glimpse into the life of a professional athlete!


If you're a student or parent whom would like to join us for one of these events, please don't hesitate to contact me!
