Congratulations to GHS students Dylan Gehl and Caroline Girten for receiving the "Sons of American Revolution" and "Daughters of American Revolution" Award! These awards recognize and reward high school seniors who possess the qualities of dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism in their homes, schools, and communities. These students are selected by their teachers and peers because they demonstrate these qualities to an outstanding degree.
“This opportunity absolutely means the world to me," says Kyle Bess, Geneseo's new head varsity baseball coach. "It feels like I've kind of grown up with this place, from being a 24-year-old teacher to someone who is pretty established. Now, it’s a new start to something again and that will be an exciting challenge.” Read more: https://www.geneseoschools.org/article/1794262
