  • Scenes from Middle School Day Away last Friday. 5th Grade went to the Bronx Zoo's Treetop Adventure, where the students ziplined and climbed the ropes courses. They then went into the zoo for a bit in the afternoon. 6th Grade traveled to the Waterfront Center in Oyster Bay where they did earth and marine science labs on the Long Island Sound ecosystem. 7th Grade took the Staten Island Ferry and went to Snug Harbor Cultural Center to learn about the harbor’s wetlands. The 8th grade (no photos were allowed) worked on projects at several sites organized by Youth Service Opportunities Project (YSOP). #collegiatenyc #collegiatemiddleschool #collegiateonline

  • Last week, the Upper School environmental science class visited Long Dock and West Point Foundry Preserve parks. Students learned the difference between the Brownfield and Superfund federal government programs designed to fund the cleanup of sites contaminated with hazardous substances and pollutants. They also had the opportunity to discuss the importance of using science to determine the level of danger of the contaminants, a plan to follow for the clean-up, and the influence of community efforts, as well as the challenges from the political, legal, and economic perspectives. — At Long Dock Park in Beacon the group was joined by John Greenthal ’65, the environmental lawyer involved in the case representing Scenic Hudson; Hayley Carlock, the Scenic Hudson (https://www.scenichudson.org/) Director of Environmental Advocacy; and Joe Kiernan, Senior Program Manager of the site. Mr. Greenthal and Mr. Kiernan continued with the group to West Point Foundry Preserve, where students learned the historic importance of the siteand the environmental preservation done there. They even were able to enter the main office of the preserve and get a tour of some of the historic artifacts found in the site. #collegiatenyc #environmentalscience #collegiateonline #scenichudson #longdockpark #westpointfoundrypreserve
