The high school’s Earth Science classes took an educational field trip to Howe Caverns in Schoharie County recently. The students who are currently studying Geology and the Rock Cycle were excited for the chance to get an up-close look at the geological formations in person.

During their trip, students explored the centuries-old caverns and learned the history of the land surrounding this historic and popular site. It was a great opportunity for the class to see a real-world example of the subjects they’re learning in class. The students had a blast and thank their teacher, Mrs. Bishop, for putting in all the hard work to make this happen!
