Coopers Campus showed incredible heart and community spirit with a recent campus-wide book drive! Together, students and staff collected an impressive 1,159 children’s books, all donated to the Family Reading Partnership of Chemung County to help promote literacy in our community.
To make things even more exciting, we turned the drive into a friendly competition—challenging each program to see who could donate the most books, with a fun reward on the line: a pizza party!
After an enthusiastic effort across campus, the Animal Science program emerged as the champion, contributing an amazing nearly 450 books—a truly outstanding achievement!
We are so proud of everyone who participated and helped make a difference. Because of your generosity, hundreds of children will have access to books and the joy of reading. Great job, Coopers Campus! 📚🍕🎉

Throughout May, students in the Bush Campus Professional Business Financial Technology program partnered with the United Way of the Southern Tier to turn compassion into action. Their efforts resulted in the collection of more than 1,200 hygiene items, the assembly of over 60 complete hygiene packs, and a delivery to Ernie Davis Academy—where these resources will directly support students and families in need.
This initiative reflects more than community service; it highlights the leadership, teamwork, and integrity our students bring to every experience. It stands as a strong example of the BOCES values in action and the meaningful impact our students can make when they work together for a greater purpose.

The Trout Unlimited program at STEM wrapped up with a memorable milestone—releasing our young trout into their natural habitat. Throughout the year, students were hands-on participants in the entire hatchery process, from caring for the eggs to monitoring their growth. This incredible experience brought science to life and fostered a deeper appreciation for conservation and aquatic ecosystems.
We are especially grateful for the support and guidance of Steve Monks, whose impact on this program and our students will not be forgotten. Thanks to his involvement, our students gained meaningful, real-world insight into environmental stewardship and the importance of protecting our waterways. We honor his memory and the lasting difference he made in fostering a love of conservation.

The Wildwood New Visions Human Services & Education students brought history to life at a local Civil War School Days event—and wow, did they impress!
After diving deep into research, students stepped into the past by dressing in period attire and presenting their topics to an audience of nearly 200 students. From Clara Barton and Civil War nurses to life as a soldier, 1800s classrooms, childhood games, and the story of the 54th Massachusetts, their presentations turned history into something students could truly see, hear, and feel.
Along the way, they built valuable skills in research, public speaking, time management, and teamwork—all while bravely stepping outside their comfort zones.
We couldn’t be prouder of their hard work, creativity, and growth. Way to go, Wildwood!

Coopers Campus Cosmetology juniors had an amazing time at a recent event on campus! What started as offering hair tinsel quickly turned into face painting too—and the response was incredible. Lines stretched all the way to the exit doors, keeping everyone busy throughout the event.
Beyond the excitement, the day was filled with meaningful connections. From smiles and conversations to a few heartfelt hugs, students made a lasting impact—one guest even shared they made a new friend. It was a wonderful opportunity for students to grow their skills, build confidence, and connect with the community.
