April is Autism Acceptance Month 💙
This year, we’re 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.
We’re 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, you’ll 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 💙
Seniors in the Conservation/Natural Resource Management program at the Hewes Educational Center were back in the field, helping stock trout in local waterways as part of a hands-on learning experience. 🎣
The annual effort supports the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and is made possible through the continued partnership of the Lakewood Rod & Gun Club. Students released buckets of trout at several local fishing spots.
With trout season opening April 1 for most inland waters, the timing is key. The DEC stocks more than 1.7 million catchable-size trout statewide from mid-March through early June.
Under the guidance of instructors Chris Hy and Jeff Angeletti, students gained valuable real-world experience while supporting New York’s natural resources.

There’s some extra excitement in the Small Animal Science program at the Hewes Educational Center, where a newborn lamb and about a dozen baby chicks are getting plenty of attention! 🐣🐑
For the second year in a row, Career & Technical Education students have experienced the hatching process firsthand under the guidance of instructor Seth Shields and teaching assistant Alexandria Smith. Students observed incubator conditions that support successful hatching, carefully regulated temperature and humidity, and automated egg turning.
Juniors and seniors also got an up-close look at egg candling, where a bright light is used to view a developing embryo inside the egg.
