On Thursday, March 12, 2015, the eighth grade scholars of the Utica Academy of Science Charter School visited Hartwick College to present their Genocide Prevention and Awareness projects. The scholars researched various genocides that have taken or are taking place. They took their research and using information from Science, Music, Math, Social Studies, Spanish and English, they created a cross-curricular project that showcased the horrors of the genocide, the survivors of the genocide, and the preventative techniques that could be used to halt future genocides.
Hartwick College students were able to view and listen to the presentations as the eighth grade scholars discussed and showed off their hard work. One college student said that she was very impressed with the work put in and cannot believe that these scholars did such a fantastic job. Another college student commented on how professional the scholars were while presenting and how they dealt so well with such a hard topic to discuss. The UASCS scholars were even willing to share anecdotes of their own experiences with genocides, as some of their families come from war-torn countries.
Overall, the project was considered a great success. Several scholars even stated that they had so much fun and were proud of the work they had done. Hartwick has even agreed to make this something we do yearly to benefit both the scholars of UASCS and the college students of Hartwick. We, the scholars and staff of UASCS, would like to thank Hartwick for allowing us to visit them and the fantastic feedback we received.
On Friday, February 27th, 2015, Utica Academy of Science held its second annual science fair, during which more than forty scholars converted their motivations and curiosities into research reports and posters in an effort to show their achievements in science education. Each of the students participated enthusiastically, demonstrating their achievements to family and friends alike.
The projects began as questions posed to their science teachers and were further developed into the framework upon which the scholars were able to conduct their own experiments outside of the school. As the science fair neared, the excitement of the participating scholars could be felt throughout the school as they prepared their presentation boards and fine-tuned their papers for the judges.
STEM faculty hailing from local institutions including MVCC, SUNYIT, and Utica College served as judges for the fair. Scholars happily demonstrated their knowledge in a variety of topics and ideas, including: virtual machines versus computers, vinegar powered battery, Investigating Osmosis, Reaction time while texting, Carbon Dioxide in Soda, Can a needle float? and many more. After presenting to the various judges, scholars were greeted with the smiling faces of their family and friends and emerged with a greater sense of inner pride in their accomplishments and inspiration for next year's fair. The local college faculty was very impressed with the depth of knowledge the scholars exhibited and all asked to be invited back again next year to see what our scholars have discovered in the interim. The faculty and staff of UASCS are also very proud of our scholars and are excited to see what next year's science fair will bring!

On Friday, October 19, 2018, first grade #UASAtoms attended their first class field trip to Fort Rickey Children's Discover Zoo, in Rome, NY. The zoo provided an ice cream cone full of animal food and #UASAtoms took bits at a time in their hand to feed the deer and sheep through the fence and then fed them the ice cream cone. After stepping into the enclosure, #UASAtoms were able to pet the deer and hug the sheep. Our #UASAtoms were then taken to the dock and were able to feed the fish and ducks, and they loved it!
We then took a wagon ride that drove us around the zoo, where we were able to see all of the animals in their enclosures. After lunch, we were let into the “maternity pen” where the students were able to pet and hold baby goats and their mothers. Following the maternity pen, we went and played in the ball pit. We aren't sure who had more fun, the students or the chaperones! These visits to local zoo's help expose our #UASAtoms to diverse wildlife and are just one of the ways we are building success one ATOM at a time.

On Tuesday, June 19, 2018 Mrs. Cowen’s seventh-grade Social Studies students hosted a biographical interactive wax museum. #UASCS students honored influential people from the past by learning about their life history, and providing visitors the chance to "meet" a historical figure. If this isn't hands-on, minds-on learning, we aren't sure what is. Way to go Atoms! #UASCS #UASAtoms

On Friday, October 19, 2018, #UASAtoms traveled back in time to the Civil War era at The Farmer's Museum in Cooperstown, NY. According to the museum's mission, "The Farmers’ Museum is devoted to preserving America’s rural heritage through interactive exhibits, living history programs, and educational workshops that depict farming and rural life."
Our scholars participated in the 19th century life workshop and had a chance to roll up their sleeves and get their hands with history, art, math, and science in a fun way by training as a Blacksmith's Apprentice. This experience directly reflects the historical unit our #UASAtoms are learning about in their classes at the moment. These hands-on lessons are just one of the ways we are building success one ATOM at a time.
