Important Reminders-- Although it is listed differently on the website calendar, kindergarten classes at Onondaga Road will be held on BOTH Thursday AND Friday, June 20 and 21. The bus will pick your child up at the usual time and dismissal will be at 11:20 (vs. 11:45). If you have not yet done so, please inform your child’s teacher regarding the name of the adult and the address at which you want your child to be dropped off on these two days!
- Report Cards for all students will be distributed on Friday, June 21. We do not distribute them early. So if your child will not be in school for any reason on Friday, please plan on picking up the report card. If you prefer, you may send in a stamped self-addressed envelope and we will mail it home.
- Speaking of report cards, we will not be listing next year's teacher’s name on report cards (as I stated in the letter sent home in April). This will allow all the elementary schools across the District to finalize placements over the summer. You will receive a letter from Mrs. Clark (your new Principal) in mid August with your child(ren)’s teacher's name.

Students to be Redistricted Visit Onondaga Road
We had two recent events for our new families. One was an Open House on June 5th. This event was well attended by our new families. Children were able to visit classrooms, while parents met with staff to hear information about the school and ask questions. On June 17th we were fortunate to have the students visit us for most of the school day. By the smiles and positive comments from both current and future students, it appears that the transition is headed in a wonderful direction for the upcoming school year!
A Heartfelt Farewell
As I approach my final days as Principal at Onondaga Road I find myself trying to take in every minute with my students, my families, and my staff wherever possible. It is with a mix of sadness and excitement that I enjoy these final days. Words do not seem sufficient to express my gratitude to the District not only for educating my own children, but also for allowing me to do the work I love for the past 29 years! To the families, students and staff, you have each been a blessing to me in your own way. And for that I will be forever indebted. Best wishes as you continue your West Genny journey!
Here are a few pictures from the last few weeks. Thanks again to all of you who have made this such a special place for me to work...
