Big Week Ahead

This a big week for all of us. Yes, a 4-0 Syracuse University football team travels to #3 ranked Clemson to take on the Tigers in “Death Valley” this upcoming Saturday. And yes, our very own 4-0 West Genesee Football Wildcats host a 4-0 Cicero-North Syracuse team in a huge battle Friday evening in Camillus. It's not just the football match-ups that makes this a big week.

What makes this such a big week for us is that we host our WGMS Open House on Thursday, September 27th from 6:30 to 8:30 PM. This is THE event in September if you have a student at WGMS. Open House is your opportunity to “check us out” and it is our platform to share with you all of the incredible opportunities our students will have throughout the school year. Students will bring home a copy of their schedule on Tuesday and on Thursday night, parents and guardians will follow their student's schedule throughout the evening. I encourage everyone to arrive early as we anticipate a huge crowd, parking is always tight and we do start right at 6:30 PM. Think 6:15 PM arrival to be safe.


To help you to stay informed and keep track of everything going on during the day and at night, we put all of our daily announcements on the WGMS web page for you to access from your computer or mobile device. From the West Genesee home page select ‘West Genesee Middle School’, scroll down to ‘School Links’ and select ‘Announcements’.

Under ‘School Links’ you can also access a lot of very useful information specific to WGMS. Another useful place to stay connected is the ‘Connect’ section of our home page to the left of ‘School Links’. Check out my Twitter feed (@Sdunhamwgms) to get an inside look at some of what goes on throughout the school day. Also, make sure you are signed-up for the West Genesee App and that you are receiving notifications that we send out routinely.

Thank you for your ongoing support of our students and staff. As always, if you have any questions or concerns please give me a call or send me an email.

Continued Success,
Steve Dunham
