Other upcoming events:
- School portraits for Wayland Elementary students will be on Thursday, Sept. 27.
- Cohocton Elementary school portraits will be taken on Wednesday, Oct. 10.
- School Counseling Office will sponsor a college trip to Alfred State on Thursday, Oct. 4. Students must have prior parental permission. All students are reminded that the School Counseling Office will host a number of opportunities for students to meet with representatives from colleges. This is a great opportunity for students to learn more about college and admissions without traveling. A schedule is posted in the School Counseling Office and students are encouraged to stop in regularly to see updates and additions.
- Some high schools students are looking forward to a trip to Barcelona, Spain, and Paris, France, to study language and culture. The students depart on Thursday, Oct. 4, and return on Sunday, Oct. 12. We wish them an educational and exciting trip and sent them with our wishes for safe travel.
- It is hard to believe but the end of the first five weeks is Friday, Oct. 5. This is a natural time to mark students’ progress. If you have questions about your child’s needs or scholastic performance at school, do not hesitate to contact his/her teacher via email or by making an appointment. Teachers are not often able to return calls during the day, however, can often sneak in time between classes for checking emails. This can be a great way to communicate, particularly in the high school and middle school levels.
