Great things happen when a community comes together! ❤️

The Ravena-Coeymans-Selkirk Central School District is recognizing SABIC and its outstanding team of volunteers for completing a meaningful community service project at Pieter B. Coeymans Elementary School earlier this June.

Thanks to the leadership of Jim Latter and the dedicated volunteer team, the district's baseball field now features custom-built benches and storage cubbies, providing student-athletes with a more organized, comfortable, and functional space during practices and games. ⚾🛠️

These new additions perfectly complement the new dugouts completed during the 2024–25 school year, creating an even better experience for current and future RCS athletes.

Projects like this demonstrate the power of strong community partnerships and the lasting impact local businesses and volunteers can have on our schools and students.

👏 A huge thank you to Jim Latter, SABIC, and every volunteer who donated their time, skills, and hard work to help make this project a reality. Your generosity will benefit RCS students for years to come!

Did you get it right? 🤔

The problem is:

3 × 3 − 3 ÷ 3 + 3 = ?

Always perform Multiplication and Division before Addition and Subtraction, working left to right.

Now the equation becomes:

9 − 1 + 3

Many people rush through the problem and solve it from left to right without respecting the order of operations.

Remember this simple rule:

🔹 Parentheses
🔹 Exponents
🔹 Multiplication & Division (left to right)
🔹 Addition & Subtraction (left to right)

Since multiplication and division come first, you must calculate 3 × 3 and 3 ÷ 3 before adding or subtracting.

3 × 3 − 3 ÷ 3 + 3
⬇️
9 − 1 + 3
⬇️
8 + 3
⬇️
11 ✅

👏 Did you get 11 on your first try, or did this one fool you? Let us know in the comments! 🧠💬
