Breaking the cycle of poverty through education.

County Executive Steve Neuhaus stopped by yesterda

County Executive Steve Neuhaus stopped by yesterday with SMA board member Gus Scacco of Hudson Valley Investment Advisors. Students took them ‘flying’ over the Hudson Valley with STEMPilot, and then gave them a demonstration on the rowing machines and shared their experiences as competitive rowers. We are grateful for the support and encouragement of community leaders in our mission to break the cycle of poverty through education!

On average, fifth-graders enter San Miguel Academy

On average, fifth-graders enter San Miguel Academy reading at a second-grade level. The SMA Summer Scholars Program addresses this and other gaps, reinforcing student skills and keeping students engaged and away from the violence that permeates the City of Newburgh, which is consistently ranked one of the most dangerous cities in New York and the U.S. All SMA students, including incoming 5th graders, attend the summer program, which extends the school year by six weeks. Students also enjoy pool days and other outdoor outings!

St. Thomas Aquines College paid us a visit this week and talked to our eager 8th graders about the many options available to them at the College.

San Miguel Academy makes a 12 year commitment to each student and their family. Our Graduate Success Program provides multiple services for the continued growth and development of our students, including career counseling, standardized test prep, and high school and college placement. We are grateful for our partner schools that enable us to further our mission to break the cycle of poverty through education.

Art Sparks: We Are the Star-Stuff

“Every time you make art, you engage in creation and transformation: Creation because you make something that didn’t exist before. Transformation because you transform art materials into art.”

This is how artist educator Imogene Drummond began Art Sparks’ seventh session which celebrates the emergence of the stars, moon, and sun. The session is represented by the color yellow, and expresses the idea of love.

The class explored scientist Carl Sagan’s concept that the energy and materials released from the Big Bang transformed into stars and everything—including us—that exists today. Imogene connected the idea of transformation with everyone being part of the transformative process that occurred over almost 14 billion years, as symbolized by Sagan’s idea that “we are star-stuff.” Students discussed their connection with the Universe as the biggest idea!

To create art, students selected from four choices: 1) what makes them happy, 2) what they love, 3) what the color yellow means to them, or 4) their experience of the sun, moon, and stars. An imaginative range of individual art emerged!
