“The most extraordinary thing about a really good teacher is that he or she transcends accepted educational methods. Such methods are designed to help average teachers approximate the performance of good teachers.”                   -- Margaret Mead
 
Greetings from Wayne Central School District. Below are some items of interest.
 


Newsletter:
 

1. Opening Day Enrollment – Opening appears to have gone very smoothly. Our staff was terrific in getting things ready for the new year. Below are the opening enrollments for each grade level. For elementary I have also given class sizes. Class sizes at the Middle School and High School are generally fine. There are a couple high school classes that are too large 29-31. Some just need to be balanced off with similar smaller classes. It looks like I will need to add one section of English for our College credit class. We kept one position in reserve in the budget just in case this was needed.

 

Grade Freewill (class size) OP OE MS HS
K 58 (14 -15) 115 (16-17)      
1 65 (16) 112 (16)      
2 58 (14 -15) 126 (18)      
3 71 (17-18)   138 (19-20)    
4 61 (20)   131 (21-22)

2.   Flooding Impact at Schools – The flooding did manage to get into part of the Middle School lower level. Mr. Davis’s crew did a nice job of managing things. Bus drivers were also great yesterday making sure students were safe in going through flooded roads and in making sure parents were visible if students had to get off where there were flooded yards or driveways. We appear to be back to normal today. Also Lake Wayne did not take over the new field.
 
3.   Board Meeting Schedule -   It appears that there are a couple of school Board meeting Calendars floating around. The correct one, which matches the school calendar is enclosed. Please ignore any different or previous calendars.
 
4.   Board Presentations -  As you know, various areas within the school make presentations to the board each year. If there is a particular area or program that you would like to more information on please let me know and I will schedule a presentation sometime this school year. We are preparing a master list at this time.
 
5.   NYSSBA Annual Convention -  Please start giving some thought to who might be willing to serve as voting delegate at the school boards convention. At this time, I do not believe we have heard from any board member that they are NOT attending the convention. Lori will be making phone calls to confirm attendance dates and times. We have not made any food purchases to date, since they are not returnable. She will be looking for confirmation on that as well. I look forward to an educational and beneficial convention. Remember, our Science Olympiad Students/Staff will be putting on an exhibit at the convention as well.
 
6.   Football- You may hear rumbling from some football parents. Four varsity football players quit this week. There had been problems with some of them (stealing someone’s lunch, not following the coaches directions, etc.). They complained that it wasn’t fun anymore. Often when a new coach comes on board with different, perhaps higher, expectations these issues occur with senior team members. Mr. Blankenberg met with the parents of the students. He feels it won’t have a negative emotional impact on the team but we will be weaker physically. By the way we play Canandaigua tomorrow at 2:00.
 
7.   Resignation – One of our high school science teachers, Joe Drake, has accepted a position with a company he has been working with. This comes at a very difficult time, as he is our senior science member. We have 30 days and will begin running ads immediately.
