Churchville-Chili has been integrating experiential learning (learning by doing) into required middle school science curriculum for several years, offering engaging enrichment experiences. This year, the district is expanding the initiative into social studies with lessons that encourage scholars to put themselves in the places of the people they are studying.
Students in Monroe 2-Orleans BOCES’ Hospitality and Applied Skills (HaAS) class, taught by Samantha Fowler, are learning valuable work skills that will help them be successful throughout life. Recently, they got a first-hand experience with how team members each play an important part in accomplishing a task, and how an absence can create difficulties for the group.
A Community Together (ACT) for Education is an unprecedented initiative by public schools in the Monroe 1 and Monroe 2-Orleans BOCES districts, RCSD, area businesses, and community members. With a unified voice, ACT for Education delivers positive messaging about our local school districts and encourages community support of public education.
