Dear Byron-Bergen students and families,
It is hard to believe that it is the last week of school.
Congratulations to everyone, students and faculty, for their hard work and
dedication. Final school supply drop-offs will take place this Wednesday, June
17th from 1 to 3:30 p.m. in both school bus loops. Please return
Chromebooks, library books, and any other District items at that time.
I am excited to see all of our graduating seniors at
commencement. This is certainly a year that none of us will forget and I look
forward to celebrating with the Class of 2020.
I am already receiving questions about the fall. The only answers I can give is that we will follow the guidelines set by the state. I believe that the best education is experienced in a classroom, however, if it becomes necessary to move to distance learning again at any time in the future, we will not be caught off guard. Byron-Bergen Central School District is committed to excellence in education – in the classroom or online. Our teachers did an amazing job adapting technology to deliver education in entirely new ways. We will be prepared and continue to improve.
I will communicate with the community throughout the summer
as decisions are made and changes come. In closing, I want to say that this
community is awesome. We came together and made it through a very difficult
time. And now, we should celebrate!
Happy summer, everyone!
Best Wishes,
Mickey Edwards
Byron-Bergen Central School District Superintendent
