Students found to be following the school policy during a cell phone check last month were invited to enjoy ice cream today! Ms. VanKingsley, Mr. Chase and Ms. Trask were among the scoopers, and students got to add the toppings themselves. Skipping the screens during school has its rewards!

Delaware Academy competed in the Catskill Area School Study Council's Upstate Academic Competition at SUNY Oneonta yesterday, making it to the semifinals as the #3 seed among 14 teams. A loss to one of the Oneonta CSD teams in that round kept them from the championship this year, but they finished strong with a 4-1 record. Congratulations! Evie Ainsworth and Asa Moxley returned to the team for their second year, with Jason VanMaaren and Jack Mokay joining this year to complete the team. Mr. Chase is the advisor. Schools competing this year were Cooperstown CSD (3 teams), Oneonta CSD (3 teams) Seton Catholic Central School (3 teams), Milford CSD (2 teams), Delaware Academy CSD at Delhi, Gilbertsville-Mount Upton CSD, and this year’s champion, Greene CSD. (thanks to CASSC and DCMO BOCES Public Information Specialist Dean Russin for the photos).

Students from Delaware Academy’s high school Community Action Service Art class visited the Delhi Rehabilitation and Nursing Center on Friday to deliver ornaments that they’d made to the residents. The class, taught by Wendy Reid-Jackson, made around 170 brightly colored angel ornaments, some of which they handed out directly to residents during their visit. They also delivered some art gifts that had been created by elementary students in their art classes, which are taught by Aric Kollig. The residents enjoyed visiting with the students and appreciated the angel ornaments.
