On Wednesday, March 25, students in Environmental Science traveled to the Electric City Aquarium and Reptile Den in Scranton, PA. The class has been learning about Earth's biomes and aquatic ecosystems, ecological interactions and species adaptations. The aquarium provided them with a chance to see these concepts up close.
Experts from the aquarium taught them about coral propagation, different animal species' behaviors, as well as some behind the scenes information about how the aquarium is run and maintained. The students even had the chance to interact with several animals, including stingrays, sea stars and a red footed tortoise.

During our Superintendent's Conference Day on Thursday, March 12, 2026, three Chenango Forks High School students had an opportunity to put their leadership skills to use as they led workshops for our educators.
