Students in Mrs. Savage's High School Health class played a game called Come On 6, an activity that teaches students how circumstances affect a person's emotions and reactions. Come On 6 encouraged wellness conversations such as:
"How did the level of excitement or stress change as people got closer to 100?"
"How can we compare this activity to stress in our lives? "
As we close 2023, we want to thank the York Central School staff, board of education, students, families, and our supportive community for all that you do that makes YCS a great school!
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year and a prosperous 2024!
