Today we celebrate **Principal Appreciation Day**—a time set aside to recognize the leaders who guide our schools with vision, care, and dedication. Principals wear many hats each day: supporting students, encouraging staff, building community, and making countless decisions that shape a positive learning environment for everyone.
We are especially thankful for our new principal, **Molly Delhinger**. From the very beginning, she has brought a spirit of kindness, strength, and commitment to our school. Her willingness to listen, lead with heart, and put students first has already made a meaningful impact.
Thank you, Molly, for stepping into this role with such grace and purpose. We are grateful for you today and every day! 💙

Dear Parents and Guardians,
We’re excited to invite your child to be part of our Family First Summer Program—a fun, hands-on learning experience for Brocton students currently in Kindergarten through Grade 5!
Program Dates: July 1 – August 20
Days/Times: Monday–Thursday, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Transportation: Provided to and from school
Meals: Breakfast and lunch included
This is not your typical summer program! Students will explore, create, and learn through engaging, project-based activities both in school and out in the community. It’s a great way to keep young minds active while having fun with friends.
Even better—families are part of the experience too! Each week, we’ll offer parent workshops and family events so you can learn, connect, and enjoy time together.
Interest forms are due May 8. Please return completed forms to the Elementary Office.
Need another form? Reach out to your child’s teacher or contact the Elementary Office—we’re happy to help!
We can’t wait to make this a summer full of learning, laughter, and connection for your family.
Warmly,
Brocton Central School District

Seniors in Mrs. O's life skills class were hard at work in the kitchen over the past few days learning all about making homemade cakes and frosting!
