5th Graders Become Sentence "doctors"

Fifth graders recently took part in a fun and interactive lesson where they became "sentence doctors," performing surgery on various sentences to practice identifying and fixing fragments, run-ons, and compound sentences. Armed with their "tools", students worked to determine which sentences were complete and which needed repairs.  Under the direction to Mrs. Wintemute, students also honed their skills in spotting sentence fragments that lacked a subject or predicate, as well as run-ons that combined too many ideas without the correct punctuation. By the end of the lesson, students had a clearer understanding of how to create strong, well-constructed sentences and confidently diagnose common sentence errors.

Golden Apple Award: Mr. Bailey

Nathan Bailey, a 4th grade teacher at Corry Intermediate School for 11 years, was recently honored with the Golden Apple Award for his dedication to building strong relationships with students and making learning fun. Known for his creative teaching methods, Bailey focuses on fostering trust, respect, and good character in his students. "He's the best teacher ever," said student nominator Jillian Bisbee, who appreciated his ability to make every day enjoyable. Bailey’s commitment to his students has earned him a cash award from Big Ideas Learning, and while he will soon transition to the Fort LeBoeuf School District, his impact at Corry will be long remembered. Congratulations, Nathan Bailey, this week’s Golden Apple Award winner!

CAIS Celebrates Custodian Day: A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Unsung Heroes!

CAIS celebrated Custodian's Day on October 2 to express their deepest gratitude to Bill, Denise, Travis, and Alex who work tirelessly to keep CAIS in tip-top shape. Their hard work often goes unnoticed, but their impact on our learning environment is immeasurable.
Students took the initiative to show their appreciation in creative ways.  A special moment was captured when Mrs. Royo's and Mrs. West's students snuck in a photo with Bill and Denise. Your dedication is truly valued, and we can’t thank you enough for everything you do!

5th Grade Field Trip

The fifth graders had a spectacular time on their recent field trip to Darien Lake, an adventure-filled day that will be remembered for years to come. The roller coasters, with their exhilarating twists and turns, were a unanimous favorite, drawing screams of delight and excitement from the students. Equally popular was the log ride, where the splashes and laughter echoed throughout the park.  A great day was had by all!

Mental Health Awareness Day Fun

Joining Union City and Fort LeBeouf today on Union City's campus was a fantastic experience for our school. Our students had a blast participating in various activities and stations while walking the track. Thankfully, the rain held off, which delighted everyone. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our staff for making this event a success, and a big thank you to our bus and van drivers for ensuring safe and smooth transportation to and from Union City.  Mrs. Nuhfer and Mr. Lander took five students from CAIS to Union City so they could join other districts on TV with Erie News Now. They did an outstanding job representing our school, and I think many of them are exhausted from the day’s excitement and fun.  Everyone had a great time for a good cause!
