Today was annual Global Youth Service Day at CMS. 🌎
Students and staff worked incredibly hard today to clean up, and volunteer at, a variety of places in Cohoes. It was an incredible day.

Cohoes Middle School students at Lansing’s Park were especially impressive, as they raked, bagged, and carried more than 100 bags of leaves. 🍃 ♻️ 🌎

After a morning of hard work, students and staff had a BBQ at school, and played a variety of field games during the afternoon special thank you to our school social workers Elaine Flatow and Leni Ferner for all of their hard work planning and organizing the day!
