Let's Celebrate!

Hi, Team Remote Families. At West Genesee, our motto has been "We Celebrate Learning" for as long as I can remember. And despite the challenges of teaching and learning during a pandemic, we have many reasons to celebrate. First and foremost are the relationships that were forged during the course of this very challenging school year. I feel like our shared experience has bonded us for life! I, for one, am grateful for the opportunity to work with such a dedicated group of teachers who put forth their best effort to make all of this work for our students. And despite seeing one another on screens for much of the year, our students had the opportunity to make new friends. 

As our Elementary parents and guardians know, the K-4 students had the opportunity to meet in-person for the first time as teachers planned gatherings to celebrate the end of the year. Check out the slideshow below to see all of the smiling faces (click here for a full screen view). For those of you who were able to attend, I think you would agree that watching the students interact seemed as though they had all been friends all along!
