So much is learned through music in addition to pitches and rhythms. Love the empathy and support our instructors and students have shown this week. Post/pics from our Wildcat Band Assistant Director, Mrs. McConnell. #DalerStrong #ArtsEdIsEssential 🎶💙💛

We launched the redesigned West Genesee website on September 1 taking into consideration the information shared in the results of the survey we distributed in June. It is now easier to find items directly related to your school from that school's homepage. It is also very mobile responsive and easy to find items from your phone.
In addition to the new website, we also launched a new mobile phone app to communicate to students, parents, and community members about West Genesee news, upcoming events, and other important information. The West Genny app is available to download free from the Apple App store or the Google Play store.
This app is different from your ParentVUE app which you will continue to use to communicate with teachers, check on schedules, and other items that relate directly to your specific child(ren).
Thank you all for your incredible support of our annual Wildcat Bottle Drive!!!
Support them through the year by dropping bottles/cans at the Redemption Center on Chapel Dr. and say they are for the Wildcat Marching Band.
THANK YOU!
