Last week, the U-E Family Support Center (FSC) hosted Agency Day, a partnership with local agencies and organizations to share services provided at the center.
Organized by Allison Sovie, a second-year MSW candidate at Binghamton University, the event brought together 40 different agencies that provide a variety of services and assistance in our community.
Please call 607-757-2501 for more information on the FSC and how it can help support families and the needs of the greater community.
During February students in Liz Scalcione’s global studies class worked on a skill-based research project studying prominent Black figures.
Students used NEWSELA articles to create an “An Enduring Issue” presentation. To start, students decided on an ‘enduring’ issue, then researched past and present black figures, picking one figure to study. Using NEWSELA, they created a Screencastify recording and slide presentation. They introduced their enduring issue and the prominent person they researched. They had to demonstrate the obstacles and challenges faced by this individual, how they overcame those obstacles and challenges, and their influence in our country, whether it be past or present.
This link takes you to a slide show that represents a small sample of students who wanted to share their presentations.

"My mom wasn't very happy about that." While other kids were using coloring books Gracey Wallan had a different idea. Her journey into the art world began at two years old, painting on the walls of her home. She answers 4 Questions on Showcase Arts TV. https://showcaseartstv.com/4-questions-gracey-wallan/
