Dear West Genesee Families,
Thank you to everyone involved in the start of the school year. It was a pleasure to welcome our students back on Wednesday, September 4, and we are moving toward settling into daily routines.
A special note of thanks to our transportation department. It is a daunting task to schedule, communicate, and implement transport for such large numbers. Our drivers, monitors, mechanics, and office personnel are dedicated to the safe and positive transport of our students to and from school each day. Welcome back to those returning and welcome to our children and families new to the bus riding experience.
The start of the school year has many unique challenges. The annual factors that create uncertainty include the unknown status of potential riders, making procedures routine, and an unfamiliarity to a new building for some. Along with the excitement of a new school year, allowing grace for our systems, our staff, and our children is certainly in order.
Each day, the schedule seems to settle toward more predictable times. Please remember that new information regarding the intent to utilize District-provided transportation will help improve consistency and will factor into any rerouting or combination of runs that may be appropriate. Any adjustments made will be communicated ahead of time.
Enjoy this edition of the e-Newsletter and enjoy the chance to see our students’ successes. Let’s go, Wildcats!
Sincerely,
David C. Bills, Superintendent of Schools
