GST BOCES -

The GST RIC implemented NYSERNET recently. NYSERNet (New York State Education and Research Network) is a non-profit Internet Service Provider in New York State. It mainly provides Internet access to universities, colleges, museums, health care facilities, primary and secondary schools, and research institutions. NYSERNET offers a Content Delivery Network (CDN) for major providers such as Microsoft, Google, Apple, Amazon Web Services to alleviate need access the internet outside of the CDN. Peering with these providers and/or hosting their content servers inside NYSERNET CDN can improve performance and offload traffic from commercial Internet connections, providing a better experience at a lower cost. The region benefits greatly from the internet access provided by our GST RIC. #PROUDTOBEGST

Thank you to the Elks Club for its generous donation of $6,000, which provided long sleeve shirts, hats and gloves for each Phoenix Academy student, as well as additional clothing or food needs. Thank you to Kabric's for printing at a discount and donating bags. #PROUDTOBEGST

Students in Kathy Loven's science classes at the Bath host site recently worked on a STEM project in which they used the Engineering Design Process to create a structure that could withstand an earthquake simulation. Students had to first create a shake box that would simulate the earthquake. They then created structures using a combination of toothpicks, mini marshmallows, and clay. The structure had to be at least one foot tall and fit inside the shake box. A structure was successful if it could withstand one minute in the shake box. #PROUDTOBEGST

Two New Visions Honor Academy students, Aayla and Riley, in the Human Services and Education program are competing this community service project at the FCCLA (Family Career and Community Leaders of America) State Competition in Callicoon, NY in the National Programs in Action competition. They chose to do a community service project that helps local organizations. They received a grant from the Community Foundations for $500 and got to work buying donations. They delivered the items to the Horseheads Food Pantry, Southern Tier Pregnancy Resource Center and The Sisters Keepers this past week! #PROUDTOBEGST
