Our EXCEL Capital Project is now underway! At a special meeting of the Board of Education
on July 15
th
, construction contracts were awarded to the following companies: Ackerman Plumb-
ing, Inc. for plumbing work; Connors-Hass, Inc. for electric work; Crosby-Brownlie, Inc. for heating
work; Joseph Flihan Co. for food service equipment work; Manning Squires Hennig for general work;
and Spring Sheet Metal and Roofing for roofing work. The contracts have been signed, and a “kickoff
meeting” held between the contractors, our Construction Manager Kircher Construction, Inc., and
representatives of the school. We will keep everyone informed about the construction schedule as de-
tails become available. In early fall, we plan to host a community forum to provide an overview of the
project and what to expect while the work is underway.
Work has already begun at the Dalton Elementary School
and is moving along quickly. We are reconfiguring the parent drop
off area in front of the school in order to make it safer for children
and parents alike. We anticipate that the work will be completed
well before the winter is here, so that students being picked up
from and dropped off at the building in inclement weather, when
traffic has traditionally been
an issue, will benefit from
these changes. In order to
minimize any disruption that
might occur during the first
days of school, we will be
sending letters home to par-
ents of Elementary students
to explain the details of ar-
rangements made to accom-
modate the safe arrival and
departure of the children. We
have included a picture of the
proposed changes, and there
will be a poster on display in
the Dalton building as well.

NYS Air and Space Hall of Fame
Launched with Help of Students
Adam Green works on updating the website for the NYS Air
and Space Hall of Fame.
Seeds in Space
Deeper space exploration may one day require an
additional stop for food…on the moon. With that in
mind, NASA launched Space Shuttle Endeavor last fall
carrying two educational payloads on mission STS-118:
collapsible plant growth chambers to conduct 20-day
plant germination and millions of cinnamon basil seeds.
Inspired by the mission, career and financial management
students obtained some of these seeds from NASA and, as
an enrichment project, conducted an engineering design
challenge and experiment. Using disposable baking trays
with clear plastic lids, students created two lunar plant
growth chambers and planted the space fown seeds in one
and some Earth-based seeds as a control group in the other.
Students learned the effects that outer space conditions
have on living seeds. The project concluded with a
module titled “Careers in Aerospace Technology”
and highlighted the course’s theme of finding
traditional careers in non-traditional places.
Superintendents Letter
continued…
Speaking of changes, you will
notice that shrubbery in front of both
the Dalton and Nunda buildings is
being removed. This is to comply with
the guidelines and protocols provided
by the NYS Department of Educa-
tion stating that shrubbery must be no
higher than two feet for building safety
and security. We will be replacing the
shrubs with plantings that will promote
safety while providing an attractive
landscape.
We are proud to announce the
appointment of our new Elementary
Principal, Ami Hunt. Ami joins us
from Canasarega where she has served
in both teaching and leadership roles.
You will learn more about Ms. Hunt in
an upcoming article, where we will also
introduce you to others who have joined
the KCS team over the summer.
The beginning of another school
year is the beginning of more opportu-
nities for each of us to make a positive
difference in the lives of our students.
The celebrations of June may be over,
but the excitement and possibilities that
September brings are just as notewor-
thy. We look forward to continuing
our partnership with the community in
pursuit of excellence in our school!
Collaborating with members of the Air Force Association, the
Aerospace Education Foundation, and the 1941 Historical Aircraft
Group Museum, KCS students built the online New York State
Air and Space Hall of Fame. The website features New Yorkers
who made significant contributions to either air or space. Students
researched different individuals ranging from military personnel to
inventors and from manufacturing moguls to astronauts.
This year’s inductees into the “Air Hall” included: Glenn Curtiss,
Tsgt Forrest L. Vosler and the Tuskegee Airmen. Curtiss was born
in Hammondsport and went on to become a famous inventor and
aircraft manufacturer. Tsgt Forrest L. Vosler was born in Lyndonville,
became a World War II Military hero and a Medal of Honor winner.
Members of the Tuskegee Airmen from across the state made up the
elite group of segregated black pilots whose introduction into WWII
helped transform not only the war on foreign soil, but also helped
heal some of the racial divide at home.
Inducted into the “Space Hall” this year were astronauts Edward Gibson,
Charles Fullerton, and Robert Gibson. Edward Gibson was born in Buffalo and
became an intricate part of testing for NASA on the Skylab space station. Charles
Fullerton was born in Rochester and spent his career in the Air Force and few mul -
tiple missions for NASA. Robert “Hoot” Gibson of Cooperstown left Earth several
times, spending more than 36 days in space.
Senior Adam Green served as the chief webpage designer for the Hall of Fame
and completed the site as a final project for Shawn Bielicki’s advanced webpage
design course. The project was funded by a mini-grant from the Rochester Area
Community Foundation and was conducted as an enrichment activity. To visit the
New York State Air and Space Hall of Fame log on to the internet at www.NY-

KCS Bus Driver Wins
Employee of the Year
Keshequa bus driver William Lissow was honored at
the Annual Professional Pupil Transportation Employee of
the Year Awards Brunch this spring. The event was spon -
sored by the Rochester Area Transportation Supervisors
Association. The brunch, which took place at the Wishing
Well Restaurant in Rochester, brought out Rochester May-
or Bob Duffy, who was the keynote speaker. An employee
from each participating school district was honored.
KCS Student Attends Math
and Science Camps
Keshequa student Alison Steidle is one of the 45 students from the Rochester area chosen to attend summer camps as part
of New York State Excelsior Scholars Program. Students who completed the summer program, funded by a grant from the New
York State Department of Education, will be named Excelsior Scholars by Governor David Paterson.
New York State Excelsior Scholars are students who have completed seventh grade, maintained a GPA of 90% or above in
math and science in grades 5-7 and scored a level four in state exams in math in grades 5-6. Students had to fill out applications
and also collect teacher recommendations. A committee of administrators reviewed the applications and chose one student to
nominate.
Students attended one or both of the weeklong camps, The Biotechnology Experience and/or Microelectronics Engineering
camp. Each week provided students with hands-on explorations, activities, and experiments that helped them enhance their
understanding of career pathways in math and science. Alison attended the Microelectronics Engineering camp at the NYS
Infotonics Center of Excellence in Canandaigua and Rochester Institute of Technology.
The Excelsior Scholars grant application was initiated by the
Rochester Area Colleges Center for Excellence in Math and Science
(RAC-CEMS). RAC-CEMS coordinated this grant proposal with the
RIT Center for Biotechnology Education and Training; the RIT
Department of Microelectronics Engineering; and the Infotonics
Technology Center. Student nominations were solicited from 25
school districts in a six-county area.
A History Lesson
Newly retired Social Studies teacher
Tom Cook has penned his own book on
the history of Letchworth State Park.
Cook along with Thomas Breslin, Russell
Judkins, and Thomas Richens, co-authored
Images of America: Letchworth State Park.
The book discusses the history of the falls,
Glen Iris, the Council Grounds, the Lower
Falls, Wolf Creek, the Highbanks and the
modern park through 200 images.
Cook said if visitors know the history of the park before-
hand, it will add to the enjoyment of their visit.
“The history of the park or any area is part of the experi -
ence,” said Cook.
Cook created and worked
in the history department in
the park from 1978 to 1992.
He and Breslin created and
maintain the website, www.
Letchworthparkhistory.com.
They were approached by Jud -
kins and Richens to write the
book. The book is available in
Letchworth State Park as well
as Amazon.com and Barnes
and Noble.

Tird Graders Become Young Authors
Not everyone gets the opportunity to become a bona fide author by third grade, but
third graders added “published author” to their lists of achievements this past school year.
This achievement was made possible through a grant supported by the Genesee Val -
ley Council on the Arts with funds from the New York State Council on the Arts. The
grant helped fund the Artist in Residence program, “Story Creation: From Storytelling
to Story Text.” For six weeks, storyteller Leah Ruekberg met with the third grade classes
to walk them through the process of story creation.
Ms. Leah, as the students called her, began each session by telling a story to the
entire grade level to model story structure, evoke memories, and to engage students in
language. Throughout the six-week process students used telling boards to write about
a surprising, scary, or funny memory, then re-told their memory several times to evoke
more details, which eventually led to story writing. They used computers to type their
stories on special glossy paper, and drew their own illustrations.
The end product was a hard cover book written and illustrated by each student. The cover had a title the student came up with
along with a photo of the student and an illustration. Inside, students were allowed to dedicate their book to someone special. On
June 24, third graders hosted an author’s tea so they could share their books with parents and other special visitors. Before students
shared their stories, Ms. Leah explained to the visitors the hard work that went into making the books.
“It takes them (students) through quite a process of self discovery,” she told visitors.
The books ranged from funny stories about misbehaving pets to scary stories about eye surgery. Students had nervous
jitters, but were quite proud of their hard work by the end of the party.
Local Writer’s ‘Memories’ Benefit Students
When writing her book,
Memories of a One Room School
House
, retired KCS librarian
Hope Stapley Depuy wanted
nothing more than to share
with younger generations
what life was like at District 4
in Geneseo during the 1930s
and Great Depression.
“I tried to share my life
just like when I was a teacher,”
said Depuy.
Depuy made a visit to
KCS in May, where she
worked from 1945 until she
retired in 1981, to present
a classroom set of her books to Social Studies teacher Tom
Cook and High School Librarian Lydia Keough. The books
will be used in the Social Studies and History classes when
they study the era of the Great Depression. Cook assisted
Depuy in the editing process and getting the book published.
He said the book is unique because it tells a story about this
area.
“It provides a first person view of a time period,” said
Cook.
The book was published last year by the Nunda Historical
Society in honor of the Nunda
Bicentennial. Depuy began
writing the book three years
ago after being prompted
by former student Valerie
Griffing.
In the book, Depuy
describes life in the country
and living on a farm. She
discusses day-to-day activities
at school and home and how
the hard economic times
affected families. She also
goes in-depth about the
schoolhouse situated at the
corner of Groveland and Jones
Bridge Roads in Geneseo and the surrounding land.
“It portrays farm life, ordinary peoples’ lives as they were
during the deep Depression,” said Depuy. “It’s a time that will
never come again. It portrays life outside the village.”
Some of Depuy’s favorite memories were family closeness,
eating meals together, and sharing everything. She said writing
the book was like, “letting someone into your home.” She said
she had to let go of some of her privacy, but in a positive way.
“It (the book) is a treasure,” said Depuy. “It’s very precious
to me. It’s meaningful. It really touches my heart.”
Hope Stapley Depuy poses with HS Librarian Lydia Keough and
newly retired Social Studies teacher Tom Cook.

Kindergarteners Discover
Adventures at Museum
This spring kindergartners had a day filled with fun, adventure, and discovery
at the Strong Museum of Play. While at the museum students visited the Reading
Adventure Land where they explored landscapes inspired by children’s books. They
got silly in the Upside-Down Nonsense House playing with words and rhymes. In
Adventure Island students explored a shipwreck and caves. There was a Wegmans
kid market, which the students could run as their own business. The students also
enjoyed the new Berenstain Bears Exhibit based on the children’s books. To top it
all off, the students had a chance to ride
the carousel!
Students Paige and Jasmine show off the
