Happy Thanksgiving to All!

Reminder:
Monday, 11/25 and Tuesday, 11/26 are half-days for elementary schools due to Parent-Teacher Conferences.  Students will be dismissed at 11:20 (walkers) and 11:30 (bus riders).  Please send a note if your child will be picked up, or if his/her dismissal routine will change for those days.  Give us a call if you need a reminder of your conference time!  I hope you will find this time rewarding as you learn about your child's successes and ways you can continue to support from home.
Congratulations:
Last week our students from grades 3-5 competed in the annual Elk's Basketball Free Throw Shooting Competition.  Congratulations to these students who will be moving on to the next round: Ben J., Jeremy C., Akrum I., Eva G., Sarah A., Dominic Y., Jacob G., Dena H., Everleigh C.


On behalf of the Onondaga Road School Family, Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

Wildcat Pride...

Please join me in extending congratulations to Mrs. Lauren Laurie! Mrs. Laurie, one of our third grade teachers here at Onondaga Road, has been recognized as the Camillus Optimists' Teacher of the Year.  Mrs. Laurie touches the hearts and minds of many people, adults and children alike, and is humbled by this recognition.  Look how proud her students are as they "present" their teacher to the community!



We are just finishing the first ten weeks of school, and we have Parent-Teacher Conferences scheduled in the next two weeks.  This is a great way for you to connect with your child's teacher and learn about your child's progress.  Please call us if you need a reminder of your conference time!   Students' report cards will be distributed in December.

The members of the Board of Education would like to invite all members of our West Genesee community to an Open Forum for a meet and greet opportunity on Wednesday, November 20 at 6:00.  All are welcome. Please see the flyer for details!
