April is Autism Acceptance Month π
This year, weβre going beyond awareness and focusing on real stories, real voices, and real understanding. As part of our awareness campaign, we had the privilege of interviewing parents and their families to share their experiences, challenges, and the beautiful moments that come with raising and loving someone on the autism spectrum.
Weβre excited to introduce our 4-part video series, where these families open up to help our community better understand autism in a meaningful and personal way.
Our hope is that through these stories, youβll gain new perspectives, deepen your empathy, and learn something you may not have known before.
Stay tuned, follow along, and join us in celebrating acceptance, inclusion, and the power of listening π
Best of luck to our Career & Technical Education students from across E2CCB as they travel to Syracuse today for the NYS SkillsUSA Leadership and Skills Championships! ππ§βοΈ
Students will take part in a variety of competitions and seek leadership positions during the three-day event at the New York State Fairgrounds.
We are proud to see our students represent E2CCB while showcasing their talents, skills, and leadership on the state stage. π

Earlier this week, the Small Animal Science program at the Hewes Educational Center welcomed Cheryl Burns, a wildlife rehabilitator and former Agricultural Science teacher at Cassadaga Valley for 30 years.
Cheryl spoke with students about wildlife conservation and the importance of contacting a licensed rehabilitator when an animal is injured or orphaned, bringing along an owl named Poot as part of the visit. π¦
Poot was believed to have been struck by a vehicle last year and now has a wing injury that prevents him from flying or hunting. He has been in Cherylβs care since being found by a local family.
Thank you, Cheryl and Poot, for providing our students with a meaningful learning experience!
