This morning our amazing CFE Kindergarteners delivered a spectacular Memorial Day performance! They learned many of our favorite patriotic songs and did a wonderful job singing!
Each class was represented by a student leader who shared facts they learned about important patriotic symbols, such as Mount Rushmore, the American Flag, the bald eagle, and the significance of wearing poppies on Memorial Day.
We are so proud of our young learners for their tribute to our nation's heroes. Great job, Kindergarten!

Concert season is officially upon us at Chenango Forks! Last week, our talented fifth-grade students wowed us with not one, but two incredible performances!
Their first concert was a daytime showcase at school, where they played beautiful music and also introduced fourth-grade students to the musical instruments they can choose to play next year if they join the band.
Then, on Wednesday night, they took the stage again to perform for their families, filling the room with wonderful musical selections!
