Hello William S. Cohen Families,
Winter Sports will be starting up in just a few weeks! There will be a winter sports student informational meeting after school on Monday, 10/26. Cheer tryouts will start on November 2nd. Basketball tryouts will start on November 9th.
Information for completing the Sway Impact testing, which athletes must complete each school year, and information for submitting a physical are attached to this message. The physical is good for all three years at Cohen, so if you have already submitted one, you do not have to do it again. Also, I wanted to take this opportunity to remind your athletes that they must pass their first quarter classes in order to be eligible to participate in a winter sport.
If you have not yet signed your student up for a winter sport, you can do so here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf1kNI2WpmwdLZxGt6a0dv_5ns-98PI8CcIGTbTskphAoUGPQ/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=110296533914362796658
Your student will also have the opportunity to sign up in person at the informational meeting. Please reach out to surli@bangorschools.net with any questions.
Thank you,
Stephen Urli
Athletic Director

The William S. Cohen School Rocket Club has again blasted off into action! For many years Mr. Bilancia has offered this experience to our students. This year the club is meeting for four sessions on Tuesday afternoons. Students in the Rocket Club learn the basics of model rocketry, prepare their rockets for flights and enjoy going outside to watch their rockets fly to the sky! We are pleased to offer this experience to Cohen students again this year! #WeAreBangor
The 3D Printing Club, led by Ms. Sciarappa, was one of the clubs offered to students this month at Cohen. Students in the club have been working on a philanthropic school-based project for the past month. Students used the engineer and design process to generate a useful object they can give to one of their teachers. #WeAreBangor

Happy Custodian Appreciation Day!
Today, we celebrate the incredible custodians who do so much more than keep our schools clean, safe, and welcoming.
Our custodial staff are often among the first to arrive and the last to leave, but their impact reaches far beyond maintaining our buildings. They build relationships with students, lend a helping hand when needed, and bring joy to our school communities in countless ways. Whether they're joining in on spirit weeks, participating in theme days, or stepping into a mascot costume to make students smile, they help create the positive and caring school culture that makes Bangor schools special.
Thank you for the pride you take in your work, your dedication to our students and staff, and the kindness you bring to our schools every day. Your contributions make a difference in ways both seen and unseen.
Please join us in thanking our amazing custodial team for all they do!
We appreciate you today and every day.
