With school starting tomorrow, here are a few highlights from last week’s Superintendent’s Conference Day!
We proudly celebrated our interim principals—Michael Cogliano at GGM Elementary and Barbara Quinn at GFB Middle & High School—and we are so grateful for their leadership and commitment to our schools.
Superintendent Jeffrey White kicked off the event with inspiring opening remarks, setting a strong tone focused on learning, growth, and continued excellence. Throughout the day, our staff deepened their practice with RULER to strengthen our commitment to supporting the social and emotional well-being of our students and community.
Meanwhile, GGM staff focused on enhancing strong literacy practices, and GFB explored New York State’s Portrait of a Graduate as part of their new NY Inspires program. It was a day filled with learning, collaboration, and shared purpose, and we are proud of our staff’s dedication to creating meaningful learning experiences for every student. We can't wait to welcome everyone back tomorrow! 💙📚🎒

Please see the important information regarding our Class of 2026 graduation ceremony.
Thank you.
Today, we celebrated our Senior Class with a special "Signing & Snacks" event! Students had
the opportunity to sign one another's yearbooks, collect messages from teachers and
classmates, and enjoy pizza and sweet treats together as they reflected on their time at our
school.
A heartfelt thank you to Mrs. Foligno for organizing this wonderful event and creating a
memorable opportunity for our seniors to celebrate their accomplishments and friendships
before graduation. We wish our seniors all the best as they begin their next chapter!
Mrs. Rota’s 4th grade scientists put their investigative skills to work during a New York State Science Lab focused on electrical circuits! Students explored how circuits work and tested different ways to make a light bulb shine brighter by adjusting components within their circuit. Through hands-on experimentation, teamwork, and critical thinking, students learned how energy flows and discovered the factors that affect the brightness of a bulb. Great job to our young engineers and scientists for their curiosity and problem-solving skills! 💡🔬⚡
Second and sixth grade students had an unforgettable adventure at the Bronx Zoo! From exploring animal habitats to learning about wildlife from around the world, students enjoyed a day filled with discovery, excitement, and hands-on learning. The trip provided a wonderful opportunity to connect classroom learning with real-world experiences while creating lasting memories with friends and teachers. Thank you to everyone who helped make this special day possible! 🦁🐒🦒🌎 #tuxedoufsd

NY Senator Skoufis invited the valedictorians and salutatorians from District 42 high schools to be honored at the Capitol Building in Albany on Wednesday, May 20. This included George F. Baker High School’s Salutatorian, Logan Saari-Poznanski, and Valedictorian, Kayleigh Donnelly.
Students and their family members met with Senator Skoufis in the historic building, where photos were taken on the Senate Chamber dais and the famous “Million Dollar Staircase.” After lunch and a Q&A session with the Senator’s staff, students watched a Senate session from the balcony. During the session, they were recognized by the New York State Senate with a standing ovation after Senator Skoufis read their names aloud.
Congratulations to Kayleigh and Logan! 🎉
