February 2019

As you may have heard, there are four confirmed cases of measles in Monroe County. This disease is very contagious and we understand that parents could be concerned. Many in our community have never encountered this disease before, so we wanted to share some general information provided by the Center for Disease Control.

More information is available on the Center for Disease Control website at: https://www.cdc.gov/measles

September 2018: Be your very best self.

September is here and it is my pleasure to welcome all the Byron-Bergen students and families to the 2018-2019 school year. This fall, we are very excited to launch the District’s new Core Values:

Be Respectful,
Be Accountable,
Be Responsible,
Be Your Very Best Self.

These four values epitomize what is best about our Byron-Bergen community. The Core Values are posted prominently around both schools as a reminder, for all of us, to constantly strive to be our very best selves. I look forward to seeing how great we can be, together.

October 2017: Focusing on the student

The school year is well underway and the students and staff have hit the ground running. Each and every year we aim to encourage students to achieve their best in academics and extracurricular activities. This year is no different. Throughout the school year we will increase our focus on nurturing the further growth of students.

Students will be encouraged to set goals for themselves and challenged to set the bar even higher. Whether it is taking an advanced placement course, trying a new instrument, or acting on their athletic pursuits, students should set new higher goals for themselves. By providing students with a variety of opportunities to explore academic and extracurricular interests, Byron-Bergen Central School District will continue to develop intelligent, well-rounded students, ready for the future.

September 2017: Welcome Back to School!

The summer months are always a busy time for district staff, and this summer was no exception. To prepare for the new academic year, school buildings were cleaned thoroughly, buses were inspected, new employees were hired, teachers and other employees participated in professional development, and repairs were made to both buildings.

There are many reasons to be proud of our schools. Our students continue to excel in every arena: in the classroom, on the athletic field, in the performing arts, and through extracurricular activities. Our employees are highly qualified professionals who care deeply about the success of children, and the tremendous support from our parents, volunteers, and community partners makes our schools even better.
