MWHS students in Ms. Bullaās Explore Teaching as a Profession program are introduced to careers in education. Through this program, many students learn that working in this field goes far beyond the traditional classroom teacher role. Education offers many paths, but all require commitment, empathy, and a heart for service, all characteristics of a Crusader! š

Did you know New York produces about 30 million bushels of apples annually? How ābout them apples! During lunch today, Crusaders from Central Valley, North Main and Pine Tree joined in the Big Apple Crunchāa statewide celebration of New Yorkās favorite fruit.
In partnership with the FarmOn! Foundation, students received samples of five different kinds of apples: Granny Smith, Red, Golden, Gala and Fuji. At CVE students even turned it into a mini-taste test, ranking each sample from sweet to most tart, and the reactions were as diverse as the flavors!šš
