Last night’s concert and art show highlighted the remarkable talent of our students. Thank you to our student musicians for delivering a polished, engaging performance, and to our Choral Director (Mrs. Bronwyn Cabuk) and Band Director (Mrs. Sarahjane Harrigan) for their leadership and preparation. The visual art displayed throughout the building was equally impressive. Our student artists showcased creativity, skill, and attention to detail — a clear reflection of the thoughtful instruction and support provided by our art teachers (Mrs. Hackett, Ms. Burke, and Mrs. Coleman) . We're proud to celebrate the work of all involved. Our student artists make us #WGProud

PSA - Respect the Field, Preserve the Future At the Watkins Glen Central School District, we are proud to keep Alumni Field open and accessible to the public. It's a space that supports our student-athletes, hosts community events, and provides opportunities for healthy activity and connection. However, we’ve recently noticed an increase in litter and personal items being left behind. This creates more work for our maintenance teams and detracts from the pride we all share in our facilities. 🔁 Let’s work together to keep Alumni Field clean, safe, and available for everyone—now and in the future. 📌 Please remember the following rules when using the field: 🚰 Water is the only drink allowed 🚫 No food, gum, seeds, nuts, or popcorn 👟 No metal spikes 🚳 No bikes, skateboards, rollerblades, vehicles, or equipment 🐕 No animals 🚭 No tobacco, drugs, or alcohol 🎆 No fireworks 🗑️ Carry In, Carry Out – Take your belongings and trash with you 🧾 Clean-up fees may be charged after inspections 🗑️ Garbage cans are available throughout the facility—please use them! Together, we can safeguard this incredible space for our students and our community. Thank you for your cooperation and continued support of the Watkins Glen Central School District! Lets make sure that our facilities continue to make us #WGProud
