For the months of January and February, students in Mary Greene’s class worked on a unit researching Human Rights and Human Rights Heroes. The project is intended to promote awareness of the Civil Rights Movements (MLK), Black History Month, National Human Trafficking Prevention Month, Human Rights Day, and World Day of Social Justice, which are all celebrated during these months. The students each chose their own hero to research and created biographies about how they fought for our human rights and promoted social justice. They did such a great job!

The Rogers Environmental Education Center in Sherburne held a ribbon-cutting for the new Sugar Shack on Saturday during their Winter Living Celebration. DCMO BOCES Carpentry and Building Construction students from the Alan D. Pole Campus collaborated on the project, carefully dismantling and rebuilding the sugar shack over the last year-and-a-half, contributing to a long-term educational resource. They disassembled the building at its original site in Norwich and reassembled it in Sherburne, gaining hands-on experience in carpentry and construction. They learned essential skills like building scaffolding and working on a roof, according to instructor Eric Ingrahm.
The Chenango County Historical Society, Friends of Rogers, NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), DCMO BOCES, and Clear Path for Veterans worked together to relocate the sugar shack from the Chenango County Historical Society to Rogers Center. The Center will use the sugar shack on-site to demonstrate the entire sap-to-sugar process. Mr. Ingraham represented DCMO BOCES at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, along with Ryan DeMars, Alan D. Pole Campus Principal, and Sonnet Constable, Pole Campus Work Experience Coordinator.
