Message from the Principal
Hello WGMS families!
That is a wrap for 2022! We finished the year in style as we brought our whole building to the SU Women's Basketball game Tuesday, performed a holiday concert the same night, and topped it off with performance from our high school chorale the next morning! We are looking forward to a great start to 2023. Mrs. Howard and I want to wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season and Happy New Year!
Stay well,
Michael McGrath
SU Women's Basketball School Day
We had a BLAST at the SU Women's Basketball game this week! It was an incredible experience for all our students.
Holiday Concert
Congratulations to all of our WGMS musicians who performed in the second holiday concert this week! Keep up all the great work - we are so proud of how far you have come this year!
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
We continue to have conversations as a staff about DEI and creating a welcoming and affirming environment. HERE is a link to the Culturally Responsive-Sustaining Education Framework, a document from NYS that guides schools in continually becoming more inclusive and equitable.
