On Monday, April 8, 85 high school students and 9 chaperones visited the Oswegatchie Educational Center to view the total solar eclipse! Students enjoyed a day of learning about the eclipse and sun safety, hiking, and playing games before the main event! Students were able to view the partial eclipse starting around 2:10 pm and totality around 3:22 pm, which lasted 3.5 minutes! The students were amazed at how dark it got, how the winds stopped, how the clouds thinned, and how mosquitos actually came out as the temperature dropped. It was an incredible experience that students will remember! Thank you to Mr. Mosny and Ms. Robinson for their work planning this trip. Thank you to Mrs. Kane, Mrs. Gates, Mrs. Martin, Ms. Campion, Mr. Gates, Mr. Bugbee, and Ms. Gates for chaperoning.
