Halloween student project:

Congratulations
Baker News was honored last week as one of the nominees at the 2022 All-American High School Film Festival in Brooklyn. The Bees entered a highlight reel of their weekly show in the best broadcast journalism category. Although the Bees didn’t snag the repeat win this year, we’re so proud of the students for being recognized in the top five in the country. Great work, Bees!
Twenty-two of our students participated in the 2022 Empire State Games for the Physically Challenged on Tuesday at the Central New York Family Sport Centre! The students had a great time. Check out our Facebook page for photos!
Three of our varsity tennis players competed in the State Individual Tennis Tournament in Schenectady. Although they didn’t win, we are extremely proud of their accomplishments this season. Congratulations to Mira Nadzan, who competed in singles, and doubles team Hannah Gould and Lainey Nesbitt.
