If you are not getting the chance to speak with someone, please contact me and I'll work to set something up either tomorrow or on another day. All BOCES programs are running on their regular schedules. That includes our group of mostly juniors who go for the afternoons. I hope you have a good evening. Thank you.

Students in 4th grade have been creating interactive posters with Makey Makey kits! With help from Matt O'Donnell of TST BOCES, the students have learned about coding, circuits, and USB cables. They have also begun to code their touch point buttons to work with the Makey Makey boards!

This project is a culmination of over a year of research and development as an honors student within the university's History Department. He will be graduating from the University of Albany next month with a dual Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and History, and plans to attend law school next fall.
