This page provides thoughts and commentary from Jeannette Clark, the Principal of Onondaga Road Elementary School in the West Genesee Central School District.

Hello, Onondaga Road Families -

We had a great first week of school! Please enjoy our first-day classroom pictures below. Thank you for your ongoing support!

Respectfully,

Our Onondaga Road School Curriculum Night is being held on Thursday, Septemer 14, 2023.

This night is for parents/guardians to connect wtih your child's teachers and learn about curriculum, expectations, and the structure of the school day. We have staggered the start times:
6:00-6:40 for grades K, 1, 2
6:45-7:30 for grades 3 and 4.

Our yearbook committee would love to have your first day of school photos! Please consider sending a photo for us to use in our 2023-24 Onondaga Road School Yearbook.

Please submit your photo to yearbookoroad@gmail.com. Use “First day of school” in the subject line. Include your children's names and grades in the body of the email, and include the photo as an attachment. Be sure to send only your favorite photo of OR children, as we won’t be able to include more than one per family or child. We appreciate your help in making our yearbook awesome!

Our first PTA meeting will be held in the library at 5:30 on September 14, just before the start of our meet-the-teacher Curriculum Night. We would love to have you join us! This is a great way to learn about various ways you can be involved and maybe volunteer for school events.
