CA BOCES CTE Center at Belmont Launches New Greenhouse Project

Belmont, NY – April 29, 2022 – Several classes and departments at the CA BOCES CTE Center at Belmont have been working cooperatively to bring a new greenhouse project to life.

The greenhouse, which is attached to the center, has been seeing new life over the past few months as various classes and staff members worked to get it repurposed. It currently has two active garden beds that students work on, along with an aquaponic tank and system used to fertilize the beds.

CA BOCES CTE School Counselor, Caitlyn Callahan, has been a key organizer of the project and said that it has been a true team effort. “Many of our classes have been working on this project over the past months with support of our staff,” she said. “It has been great to see all the collaboration and see the project come to life.”

The Early Entry class at the center constructed flower/plant beds, the Natural Resources class has handled management of the fish and tank system, Media Communications students created labeling for the beds, and Culinary Arts students have been monitoring plant/herb quality with goals of including them in upcoming dishes.

Staff members at the CTE Center at Belmont donated seeds for the project and the Facilities team provided general oversight and support as new elements were added to the greenhouse.

CA BOCES Culinary Arts instructor, CJ Wright, added that aside from the management and collaboration experience that comes with the project, that students are also gathering life skills that can impact for years to come. “While our students are being technically trained in their respective fields of study, it is great to provide projects that also provide real-world knowledge in areas that students can benefit from no matter which career field they pursue.”

As the regional leader in education services, CA BOCES offers state-of-the-art programs for learners of all ages and abilities as well as cost-effective shared services for 22 component school districts. CA BOCES empowers students to achieve their maximum potential by offering a wide variety of innovative programs and support that include special education, career and technical education, adult and continuing education, technology support, and instructional support services.

CA BOCES CTE Students Explore Careers with New York State Department of Transportation

Ellicottville, NY – April 6, 2022 – On Friday, April 1, students from the CA BOCES CTE Center at Ellicottville’s Heavy Equipment Operations, Collision Repair Technology and Power Equipment Technology programs received a day of industry careers exploration with the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT).

Representatives from the NYSDOT spent the day with students discussing potential career paths available in their fields of study. The DOT also brought equipment to the center for student training and exposure including several mechanical training aids and a plow/sander truck.

Sponsored by SUNY Cobleskill’s Workforce Development Outreach Project, the students participated in a hands-on training to reinforce diesel engine electrical diagnostics, air brake and drivetrain fundamentals, along with basic plow truck operation.

Outreach Instructors from SUNY Cobleskill’s Agricultural Engineering Department facilitated the day of career exposure. The main goal of the SUNY Cobleskill Workforce Development Outreach Project is to foster and build connections between students, educators, and industry.  The driving force behind this project is to educate and encourage young adults to enter the agricultural / construction / transportation equipment repair fields, as a shortage currently exists and is projected to increase in the future.

CA BOCES CTE Students Receive Training on New CAT Heavy Equipment Simulators

Belmont, NY – February 8, 2022 – In early February, Heavy Equipment students from the CA BOCES CTE Center at Belmont received a day of advanced training on visiting CAT equipment simulators.

The CAT heavy equipment simulators deliver dynamic training technology and outstanding safety results through the power of state-of-the-art virtual training. The simulators are chosen as training solutions in such markets as mining, contracting, government, forestry, and trade and vocational schools, like CA BOCES.

Matt Hopkins, CA BOCES Student Services/Work Based Learning Coordinator, said that the simulators were top-of-the-line and will help prepare students for real-life training scenarios in the classroom and beyond. “This was such a great opportunity for our students,” he said. “Being able to offer this level of training and technology helps increase the future safety of our students and affords a unique link for them to the future of heavy equipment as the industry begins the transition to electric powered equipment. These simulators are an investment, and CA BOCES will continue to pursue all available resources to hopefully secure a simulator in the future for our programs.”

Hopkins additionally thanked staff for coordinating the training. “I must also thank Derek Decker, CTE Center at Belmont Heavy Equipment instructor, for coordinating this opportunity. He worked with CAT representatives through the month of January to bring them to Western New York, and we are grateful.”

CA BOCES Animation Program Impacting Regional School Districts

Olean, NY – January 26, 2022 – Since Fall 2021, school districts in the Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES (CA BOCES) region have been seeing world-class animations come to life in their school hallways thanks to new programming offered through the Information Technology Department at CA BOCES.

Through a unique partnership with Rochester Institute of Technology’s MAGIC Spell Studios, the team at CA BOCES has been offering customized animation offerings to component school districts in the region.

CA BOCES Information Technology Director, Michael Graf, said he has been pleased with program development. “Our newly-created animation department and our partnership with MAGIC Spell Studios has allowed us to offer animation on a broader scale to our component districts at a reasonable price through existing CoSer structures.”

MAGIC Spell Studios, LLC, is the entrepreneurial and commercial heart of MAGIC at RIT. Encompassing a fully functional film sound stage, sound mix and color correction post-production studios, a 4K Dolby Atmos theater, and several working media laboratories, MAGIC Spell Studios, and their student and faculty talent, have been working on various projects in local districts.

CA BOCES is currently working with several regional school districts on various projects that  include animated versions of administrators and mascots, character education animated story lines, 2D/3D creations for use in sensory rooms and hallways, and custom athletic animations for digital score boards.

Allegany-Limestone Central School District is one district that has utilized animation programming this year. Superintendent, Tony Giannicchi, said that he has been most pleased with the opportunity to include staff and students in the process. “With project storylines and scripts created by staff and students, it was a great opportunity to include them in the animation process. This increased overall engagement.”

Belfast Central School District has used animation to promote relationship-building between staff and students. Superintendent, Wendy Butler, said that students and the community have responded well to these new messages. “Our animated pieces have been a nice way to encourage students and bring positivity to our building – which is so important, especially now.”

Randolph Central School District has also seen increased engagement with the inclusion of animation pieces. Superintendent, Kaine Kelly, said that the animated messages they created were aimed to help in student comprehension for a variety of messages. “In today’s environment, our students are asked to understand so many messages and instructions,” he said. “Our animations featuring familiar administrators and staff, and even our service dog, has helped soften messaging and bring a new sort of energy and understanding to those messages.”

For more information on the animation programming at CA BOCES contact Michael Graf at 716-376-8218.

As the regional leader in education services, CA BOCES offers state-of-the-art programs for learners of all ages and abilities as well as cost-effective shared services for 22 component school districts. CA BOCES empowers students to achieve their maximum potential by offering a wide variety of innovative programs and support that include special education, career and technical education, adult and continuing education, technology support, and instructional support services.

CTE Center at Ellicottville Students Receive Advanced Training Through College, Local Partners

Ellicottville, NY – November 9, 2021 – On November 3, students from the CA BOCES CTE Center at Ellicottville Power Equipment Technology program received a day of advanced agricultural & construction equipment hydraulic systems training.

Sponsored by SUNY Cobleskill’s Workforce Development Outreach Project, the students participated in hands-on training to reinforce hydraulic system fundamentals.  Some of the training included using a hydraulic flow-meter to measure machine hydraulic oil flow and testing a tractor’s 3-point hitch hydraulic pump relief valve setting.  The students also learned about many types of hydraulic system components, such as pumps, motors, control valves and cylinders.

Outreach Instructors from SUNY Cobleskill’s Agricultural Engineering Department led the training. Industry representatives from Anderson Equipment, LandPro Equipment and the NYS Department of Transportation also participated in the training. The Outreach Project also donated the use of a brand new, state of the art Mini Track Loader and Compact Tractor for the day.  This Mini Track Loader was “bugged” with faults, which the students had to correctly troubleshoot and identify. The main goal of the SUNY Cobleskill Workforce Development Outreach Project is to foster and build connections between students, educators, and industry.  The driving force behind this project is to educate and encourage young adults to enter the agricultural / construction equipment repair fields, as a shortage currently exists and is projected to increase in the near future.

As the regional leader in education services, CA BOCES offers state-of-the-art programs for learners of all ages and abilities as well as cost-effective shared services for 22 component school districts. CA BOCES empowers students to achieve their maximum potential by offering a wide variety of innovative programs and support that include special education, career and technical education, adult and continuing education, technology support, and instructional support services.
