The Stars Were Shining
It was a beautiful night for a Senior Ball on June 4 on the lower grass stadium. The gentle breeze and quick rain burst didn’t stop the party. Our Wildcats were dressed to impress and ready to dance. It was a night to remember for all.The preparations for the day were a valiant group effort, from the mock crash put on by our Camillus Police Department, and Fairmount Fire Department to the transformation of a school field into a grand twinkling venue by our senior class advisors.
It was a day for celebration and an opportunity to remind our students how to do that safely.
This Friday, June 11, 2021, our seniors will travel through some more West Genny milestones, as they “Chalk the Walk”, sign the WG pawprint, reminisce with their senior video, and visit their elementary schools, parading by the young Wildcats and teachers from their youth.

Mental Health Resources
Our school community prides itself on caring for one another. Resources are available and our very own Mary Gotham, the librarian at the high school, is working hard to make sure that our staff, students, and families know how to find them. She has organized a collection of contacts, coping mechanisms, interventions, and personal strategies for mental health in one location. The Mental Health Resources Website houses hotlines, TEDtalks, and tools for a variety of challenges that affect every age group. Please check it out. It could help you or someone you love.
