LE ROY PENNYSAVER & NEWS - NOVEMBER 13, 2016
NOTICE!
Deadline
Change!
by Kim M. Cox,
Superintendent of Schools
Happy November! It’s
hard to believe that we are
approaching the holiday sea-
son. It has been an exciting
fall with extraordinary sports
seasons and academic pro-
grams. Thanks to all of you
who have celebrated our stu-
dents by attending contests,
meetings, and conferences.
Your ongoing support is crit-
ical to the continued success
in all aspects of our students’
educational journey.
Our staff is also continu-
ing their educational journey.
This year we are focusing on
honing our skills in Profes-
sional Learning Committees
or “PLCs.” We also refer to
these as Data Meetings. This
new structure facilitates a
rich dialogue between staff
regarding curriculum, in-
struction, and instructional
practices. Guiding questions
focus on “what’s working,”
“what are immediate con-
cerns,” “what are possible
solutions,” and “what actions
will we take as a group?”
Teachers are also engaged
in several action research
projects that focus on how to
best meet our students’ ev-
er-changing needs. This prac-
tice is the basis of continuous
improvement and models
lifelong learning, one of the
Le Roy Central School Dis-
trict graduation outcomes. It
is a powerful way of working
together to impact the prac-
tice of schooling for all!
Our Wolcott Street
School Fitness Center is up
and running. It has been
great to see many com-
munity members using the
facilities. Just a reminder,
the hours are: Monday and
Wednesday from 6:00 a.m.-
8:00 a.m., and Tuesday and
Thursday from 5:00 p.m.-
8:00 p.m. For more infor-

Work continues on The
R.I.T.E Project . We are
pleased that our Wolcott
Street School Memorial Au-
ditorium updates are com-
pleted and it looks beautiful.
We are especially excited
about the new lighting and
sound systems that have been
installed. You will be able

have already been used for
physical education classes.

ever, the nets will come down
until spring. The student
common areas are nearing
completion, as is the lighting
in the cafeteria. The next big
piece of the project includes

you for your service and
sacrifices that have allowed
us to enjoy the many free-
doms of this great country.
We are forever grateful!
