New Principal Named At Dorr Elementary
On January 13th, the Wayland Union School Board voted to name Mrs. Robin Seniura as the next Principal at Dorr Elementary. Mrs. Seniura is not a new face to Dorr Elementary. In fact, she was our Assistant Principal. Mrs. Seniura is dedicated to our students and families. Working first in the classroom as a teacher, then as Assistant Principal and now as our Principal gives her a multi faceted view of our education process. With all her experience and knowledge we know that she will serve the families of Dorr Elementary with the ease and grace that only seasoned professional can. If you see her around the building please give her a big congratulations! We can't wait to see the great things in store for Dorr Elementary!
Check out Mrs. Seniura's biography below!
My name is Robin Seniura and I have been with Wayland Schools for 30 years. During this time I have been the Assistant Principal at Dorr Elementary. I have taught 1st, 3rd and 4th grades, as well as kindergarten in the summer. I also taught 6th grade at the beginning of my career for Mason Public Schools.
Bill, my husband, and I have two sons, Will and Matt. We are all alumni of Michigan State University and huge Michigan State Fans- GO GREEN!
It is my great fortune to work with children. I set very high expectations for each and every student because I believe each one can be a success. Children never cease to amaze me with their determination and persistence. They make me smile and laugh each and every day.
Preschool Payments Due Soon!
Payments can be made by credit card on the parent portal, or by cash or check in the office. This is the last payment for the 2019-20 school year so any remaining balance will be due at that time!

Artists Corner
A Note From Ms. Corcoran:
In third grade art we are using soft pastels to make abstract landscapes. They are beautiful!
In second grade we are painting portraits of polar bears. The students are using white paint on black paper. In first grade and kindergarten we are doing paintings of snowmen. We are learning about adding a shadow and details.
Young fives is practicing cutting and gluing by cutting out circles and making their own snowmen.
