The CPP High School Learning Center recently worked on garden beds at the Danforth Community Garden in South Corning. Teacher Mrs. Howard said, “We are planting food to donate to Meals on Wheels or others in need.” She said, “We repaired one bed and will be putting in a crop of garlic next week.”
Thank you HSLC!
Our school held its annual food drive and had the most successful collection since we started donating to the Salvation Army over the past 15 plus years," said Hugh Gregg Principal Mrs. Collins.
1,381 items were collected. She said, "That is a record for Gregg and amazing amount for us!"

This is the Calvin U. Smith Kindness Squad, also known as Student Leadership, who organized a canned food drive for the Painted Post Food Pantry. Teacher Ms. Ayers said, "The kids counted 340 cans in total that were collected! Students are hoping that the community is able to benefit from our donations for the holiday season that is coming."
To ensure we are creating the safest environment we can, we will continue to implement a “No Re-Entry” plan for the winter season. In addition, we will ask all students, unaccompanied by an adult, to sit in the student section at our basketball contests. These changes will help us manage student and family traffic coming and going from our facilities. The “No Re-Entry” plan will be in effect for all contests held at the High School Field House and the Middle School Gymnasium during the winter season.
Our Hawks Athletic Advisory Committee (HAAC) will continue to review these safety protocols after each season.
Opening Day of Winter Sports coming up!

CPPMS students created over 800 cards to show their gratitude to our veterans at the Bath VA Medical Center. The effort was organized by teacher Caterina Summa. She said, “The creativity and messages written to lift their spirits were so genuine and thoughtful. I could not be prouder of our 6th, 7th and 8th grade Hawks!”
The cards were delivered Thursday to the Bath VA by students Rhyss, Zell and Grayson with Mrs. Summa and Executive Principal Mr. Barber.
Calvin U. Smith Elementary School held their Veterans Day Ceremony Thursday morning, November 9th. Teacher Lindsay Ayers said, “Our student leadership team, also known as the Kindness Squad, led the ceremony where they discussed what is a veteran, the branches of government and how to thank a veteran. Mr. Nangle, Mr. Bosket, Mr. Gargano, Mr. Gargano and Mr. Hawkins said that they appreciate that our school has honored the veterans for so many years!”
