Elementary students learned about the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade and constructed their own balloon parade floats with the help of robots called Ozobots. Students connected their learning about the eye and vision in Science to how Ozobots (a type of line code robots that use optic sensors) operate. This project also allowed them to learn to code the Ozobot floats to parade down "Broadway" using screen free color codes.
Students in Mr. Kowal's robotics class built robotic parade floats using modular robotics kits called Cubelets and other materials in the STEM lab. This project was inspired by the Macy's Day Thanksgiving parade.

You are the most powerful influencer in the world. Thank you for inspiring, influencing, teaching, and motivating our Brocton students. You make a huge difference.
Today is National Custodian Recognition Day!
They work while we sleep. Sometimes we walk around them in the halls not always “seeing” them or their work as important. That’s why we love this day, National Custodian Day, which rolls around every October 2. It recognizes the hard work that it takes to keep our public facilities in tip-top shape as well as the people who diligently work to make sure we have schools and workplaces that are spotless and sanitary.
Our Maintenance Department is our first line of defense of the war on germs and often, it’s a thankless task. So, on National Custodian Day, please show your appreciation to the custodians and maintenance staff who clean the office buildings, and classrooms that you frequent at Brocton CSD.
Thank you Larry, Mark, Jim, Jeff, Barb, Ryan, Joe, Valerie, Will, Kelly, Bruce, and our dedicated substitute cleaners.
