Fall 2024
Dear Friends,
As the leaves begin to change and the air turns crisp, we find ourselves well-adjusted in another exciting school year. Fall is a time of reflection and gratitude, and I want to take a moment to express my appreciation for each of you—students, staff, parents, and community
members—who contribute to the vibrant spirit of our district.
In this
Fall 2024 Reflections Newsletter, we are focusing on initiatives and academic programs that are improving student engagement, enhancing academic programs, promoting social-emotional learning, and building safe schools. Our dedicated teachers and staff are
working tirelessly to create a supportive and enriching environment for all students. I encourage you to engage with your child’s education by participating in school events, teacher conferences, concerts and more this season.
As we move forward, let’s continue to foster a community of
collaboration and respect. Together, we can ensure that every student feels valued and empowered to succeed.
I wish you all a wonderful fall, filled with learning, growth, and community spirit. Thank you for your ongoing support and commitment to our schools.
Warm regards,
Hillary J. Austin
Superintendent of Schools
Elmira City School District
