Superintendent's Message to Families and Employees (June 3, 2025)
Dear Rush-Henrietta Families and Employees,
As we approach the final weeks of the school year, I want to thank you for your support of our students and staff, as well the entire R-H school community. While there is still learning to do in the days ahead, this is a good time to say thank you and acknowledge a job well done. Thank you!
Student Spotlight: Meet Noah Lopez
Our Student Spotlight shines on Noah Lopez, a third-grader at Fyle Elementary. Principal Marcy Mooney says: “Noah exemplifies leadership, perseverance, and kindness in ways that inspire his peers, teachers, and our entire school community. As a blind student adjusting to a new school environment, Noah embraced challenges with unwavering courage and determination. From the moment he joined our school, he has taken on the role of a leader, teaching his classmates aboutblindness, the significance of the white cane, and how it empowers his independence.”
Noah’s advocacy extends beyond the classroom. By explaining the importance of accessibility and inclusion, Mooney says, Noah has influenced the school culture, making it more welcoming for everyone. His kindness shines in his willingness to help others understand that differences are strengths, and his perseverance is evident in his academic achievements and positive attitude. We’re glad you are a Royal Comet, Noah. You belong here!
Students Take Center Stage at R-H Olympics
Rush-Henrietta hosted an inspiring event last week where students with special needs took center stage in a Special Olympics-style celebration. Demonstrating enthusiasm at every turn, the district came together to support and cheer on our students at Rush-Henrietta Senior High School’s Elmer Gordon Stadium.In the past, school districts from throughout Monroe County held a joint event for this purpose, but some have not participated in recent years. Physical Education teacher Marty Fagan had the vision to bring this tradition back, right here in our own community. The result? A day filled with meaningful moments for students representing Rush-Henrietta.
Fagan notes the event would not have been a success without incredible support from students and staff. After students entered the stadium, RH Singers performed a terrific rendition of the National Anthem. Students from Natural Helpers and Link Crew joyfully gave high-fives, cheering on the participants and spreading positivity. Staff members helped keep the games moving smoothly. Participants and spectators enjoyed every minute of the two-hour event. It was a shining example of the power of inclusion in our schools—where every student is given the opportunity to participate, excel, and be celebrated.Honoring Our Retirees
