Hello Watkins Glen School Community!
Happy Fall WG!
I hope this message finds you happy and healthy, and your school year is off to a great start!
COVID-19 Updates:
Our community infection-rate level has moved to the medium/yellow zone. No changes to our current conditions are required. We want to reiterate that the best thing that we can do is to remain home if you are sick. If you need a test, feel free to contact the school. We currently have plenty to share with our school community.
There is a vaccination clinic this Saturday here in the WGHS Cafeteria from 8:30-10AM. This is NOT for boosters. This is for initial dose vaccines only.
The Winner’s Circle Project!
As a quick follow up to our last community update, yesterday, Mr. Hogan, Mr. Colunio, and our Maintenance department received all vehicle parts to begin our race car build. More information on this exciting project can be found at the link above. Huge shout out to our students in Transportation II, TV Production, and Advertising & Marketing who will be taking on this important and engaging work!

A Busy Weekend Ahead!
If you are heading up to Odessa for the Varsity football game this evening, bundle up! It is going to be a cold evening! Kickoff is at 7PM.
Saturday will be a very busy day on our school grounds, specifically in the WG Pool and Alumni Field.
In addition to the above-mentioned vaccination clinic, our District is hosting a 16 team Girls Swimming and Diving Invitational (swimming begins at 4:30 this afternoon and 9:30 Saturday morning), the Girls Varsity Soccer Team hosts rival Odessa-Montour at 11AM, and the Youth Football Program hosts Corning starting at 3:30PM.
We are WG PROUD to host and watch the youth of our community in action! Be kind and patient with each other as we navigate our busy parking lots.
One more thing! WGCSD Open House is schedule for October 18th, 2022. More details to follow from our Building Leaders.
That is all for now WG!
Have a GREAT weekend and Go Senecas!
Respectfully, Kai D’Alleva Watkins Glen Central School District Superintendent of Schools
