Shucking Local Corn for Lunch
Those of you who plan to eat the local Mazza's Farm corn (Colchester VT) at lunch today have the Voyagers & Triumph to thank for doing the corn-shucking work on Thursday Oct 1st. The Abbey and Mrs. Lamb and Smith contributed to making the purchase and process possible.
Because we shucked our own corn, our school could afford to buy a locally harvested high quality food source to add to our lunch.
The students worked in our still-new vegetable and fruit prep room. It used to be an unattractive storage room that was remodeled last year with a large sink, stainless steel prep tables and a substantial refrigerator.

Bus safety, Walking and Biking Safety Meetings
St. Albans City School has been holding safety meetings with each learning community over the last two weeks. The point of these meetings has been make sure we are all safe when riding the bus and when coming to school by bicycle or on foot. Here is a list of expectations:
On the bus:
- Follow bus drivers directions
- Quietly talk with seat mates while facing straight forward -aisles are clear
- Show respectful behavior towards everyone (No bullying, or distractions)
- Quiet when at railroad crossings
- No food or drinks out of backpacks while on the bus (choking hazard, spills)
- Hands and head inside the bus, not out windows (branches scrape the bus)
- Windows are left clean of graffiti
While biking
- Helmets are a must
- Walk your bike across pedestrian crosswalks (it is a law)
- Ride on sidewalks, but riding on sidewalks on main street downtown is not allowed.
Walkers
- Only approach a crosswalk when you are ready to cross -make eye contact with drivers to make sure they see you and stop.
- Use push button activated crossing lights when available
