We Are Off and Running


It’s the second full week of school and we are back in the swing of things. Other than me forgetting to get my lunch out of the fridge some mornings, this has been a wonderful start to the school year. Walking into classrooms during the school day you see energized teachers and engaged students. The sounds of instruments and singing from the music wing float down the hallway and put a little bounce in your step (whether you want to bounce or not). Head out on the athletic fields after school and you see our student-athletes competing and working hard as their coaches prepare them for their first games later this week and next. The building is alive and well!
All of our students will take part in our AIMSweb universal screenings in both Mathematics and Reading this week. These screenings will provide us with really useful data that goes beyond the state assessment results to ensure that we are providing necessary interventions for students as well as helping us make informed decisions about instruction. All good stuff!


If you are not connected to us through SNN please take the time to do so by clicking on the SNN logo on the West Genesee Homepage. The number of people connected to us continues to grow and as you can see below, we had a stream of people getting connected during our Open House last week. Even more good stuff!


Long lines at Open House to get connected!
