Innovation in action! 💡

Earlier this week, students from New Visions Business, Union-Endicott Central School District , and Windsor Central School District competed in the Start Up Summit business plan competition.

Every participant did a phenomenal job building a business from scratch, formalizing a professional plan, and pitching directly to a panel of judges. 👏

🎉 Special congratulations to New Visions Business for taking home 2nd and 5th place!

This event wouldn't be possible without a strong community support system. Thank you to SUNY Broome Community College for hosting the competition, and a massive thank you to our mentor, , for investing your time and expertise into mentoring these bright young minds.

This year’s Health Academy students presented their culminating posters at a Final Symposium. They chose to research a specific disease or disorder and related advancement in prevention, diagnosis, or treatment. Each project was also linked to a Social Determinant of Health and its impact on health outcomes. Thank you to the many family members, school administrators, school counselors, and friends who came to see the students present their topics, utilizing their learning from coursework, clinical rotations, and research!

Another successful SERVPRO experience with our BTBOCES_New Visions Student, Ava! Such a pleasure to have you part of the Team the last few weeks 🙌 Wishing nothing but the best and future success to the 2026 BOCES New Visions Class!

Our office had the pleasure of hosting Abbi Engelbert from Tioga Central School District and Jaelynne Lovell from OA Schools, Owego Free Academy through the BTBOCES_New Visions Law & Government Program over the last four weeks.

It has been a wonderful experience having them with our office as they explored the legal field and gained firsthand insight into the work of prosecutors and the criminal justice system. Their professionalism, enthusiasm, and eagerness to learn made a lasting impression on our team.

We wish Abbi and Jaelynne continued success in all of their future endeavors and thank them for spending part of their educational journey with us!

Real world. Real experience.
Our students are out in the field! This week, the New Visions Business Academy took over Broome County for job shadowing. There’s no better way to learn than by doing, and our students are making us proud at every stop.
