2. Some Pictures Woodside Presents, "Bugz" There was a playful picnic on the stage of Woodside Elementary when our students recently presented the musical, “Bugz” for parents and classmates. All of our students helped pitch in – our Lady Bugs were in charge of proper etiquette, the Army Ants handled security, the Fireflies lit up the stage and entertainment was provided by the Bumble Bees. The Stink Bug was even there to get a few laughs out of the day’s guests! Special thanks to all who helped make the play a success and to our audience members for attending the show. Happy spring, everyone! PKMS Students Visit PNW BOCES Tech Center On April 8, 40 eighth grade students from Peekskill Middle School had the opportunity to travel to the Yorktown BOCES Tech Center to tour classrooms and facilities while examining their future options for 11th and 12th grade study. While on their visit, PKMS students participated in classroom lessons and were engaged in hands-on activities associated with a variety of BOCES programs. Peekskill students were able to test their skills at using medical instruments in the Medical Assistant program. They were also able to try bending pipes in the Construction Electricity program and use microscopes to study plants and animals in the New Visions Environmental Science and Sustainability program. “The students had a wonderful time and asked lots of questions,” said PKMS teacher, Scott Tabone who accompanied the students on the trip.
