Tuesday, April 18th, 2023: Jason Fingerman visited Mr. Zinger's 5th-grade class to highlight careers in STEM. Mr. Fingerman works for SAAB as a Systems Engineer for Air Traffic Management Safety and Efficiency. He explained how his job is like solving one big puzzle for a living and showed Atoms the "Flight Aware" software he uses. "Flight Aware" is a real-time flight tracking system that Mr. Zinger uses in his classes as part of STEAM lessons. Mr. Fingerman also demonstrated SAAB's Aerobahn product used with commercial airlines to give the attendees a sense of how the big airlines and airports use Aerobahn to help with surface management.

Students asked insightful questions and were very interested in learning more. Thank you for your time, Mr. Fingerman!

Friday, March 24th, 2023: Did you know March is music in our school's month? Citizenship Academy came together for a music-themed spirit week to show how much we love music. Atoms dressed in blue to celebrate Blues music, styled their hair like a Rock Star, represented musical cultures, glamorized themselves for the red carpet, and became Pop Star sensations. Music teachers taught students music from the USA, India, Mexico, Japan, and Africa. Outside of the music room, students wrote about why they love music. We are so happy to have music in our school!

Wednesday, February 15th, 2023: During Black History Month, Citizenship & Science Academy of Syracuse 2nd-grade Atoms in Mrs. Conroy & Mr. Palerino's class did a project on Jackie Robinson. Atoms read books about Jackie Robinson and then wrote what they learned about this famous baseball player. The students were interested in hearing how he broke the color barrier in baseball and stood up for equal rights before he started playing baseball.

It was a very informative lesson for our scholars!
