Chenango Valley Middle School students enjoyed using their STEAM skills as they participated in the 11th (almost) annual Cardboard Boat Race event on February 24! Last held in early 2020 (due to the COVID-19 pandemic), this fun event was back in the CV Middle School/High School pool!

Working in teams, students built their colorful boats and paddles using cardboard and duct tape. They studied the basics of boat construction and physics to prepare for the event. Finally, students put their boats to the test to see if they could carry at least one person the length of the pool and back.
