Join us in celebrating the incredible school nurses who keep our students healthy, safe, and ready to learn!
Today is National School Nurse Day 2026, a time to recognize these dedicated professionals for their vital role in supporting student well-being and academic success. This year’s theme, "Trusted, Valued, Essential," perfectly captures the impact they make every single day.
From managing chronic conditions and responding to emergencies to supporting mental health, our school nurses are compassionate caregivers and strong advocates for every student.
Please join us in thanking our amazing Geneseo school nurses (pictured left to right):
Sara Kreps (Millikin)
Jessica Jansen (District Lead Nurse/GMS)
Andrea Smith (Northside)
Joyce Dietrich (Southwest)
Alysia Young (GHS)
Thank you for all you do for our students and our community!

We welcomed around 15-20 local businesses and community organizations, who talked with and mock interviewed students as they learned about the various careers available to them in the coming years. Thank you to our teachers and counselors for organizing this event, and to our business guests who did an amazing job bringing the workplace to life!
A huge Congratulations to our very own Hailey Olson on her winning the IESA Scholar Attitude Award, one of only fifteen recipients state-wide. Hailey represents the very best academics, character, and student athlete leadership that Geneseo has to offer. Way to go Hailey!
In classrooms across GMS today, students and staff have created a learning storm. Mr. J hosted an engaging Geography workshop on his trip to Western Europe, and 7th ELA students debated the Exon Valdez man-made disaster in an intense Socratic Seminar.

We have a group of fourth graders at Millikin who sing, dance, and greet our students every Friday morning. Sometimes, they even bring out the bubble machine or hand out candies. They help make our building so fun and welcoming!
