First graders had a view into the prehistoric world of reptiles through a visit from Seth Poyfair from Prehistoric World, Reptile Zoo, located in Perry, NY. The students learned about the different reptiles that Mr. Poyfair brought with him and were surprised to learn some of the interesting facts about their habitats. You can learn more about Prehistoric World by visiting their website. https://www.prehistoricworld.org/

The audience in the Ivan F. Hilfiker Auditorium was treated to a fabulous Elementary School Spring Band & Chorus concert on June 5. The Fourth and Fifth Grade Bands were really impressive with their progress since the winter concert. They performed everything from the classic, "When the Saints Go Marching In, performed by the Fourth Graders, to the very cool "Beginners Rock" performed by the Fifth Graders. The Elementary Chorus was also fantastic! They performed beautiful selections such as "Memories" and "Rainbow." They also got the audience toe-tapping with "Mary Had A Little Blues!" Congratulations to the musicians and vocalists, and their teachers Ms. Kathleen Dessert and Mrs. Susan Daeffler. See all of the photos from the concert on our Facebook page @yorkgoldenknights!

May-June 2025 Blank Golden Knights Recognition Blank
Golden Knight Spotlight! Congratulations to Mrs. Sandy Streb, Mrs. Tracey Proctor, and Miss Emma Durfee, for inspiring, preparing, and challenging our students and each other! York CSD is proud of our Golden Knights Family. Sandy Streb - Nominator Nicole Guy, Social Worker Sandy always goes above and beyond to not only give her students what they need but to challenge them to become better academically as well as social-emotionally. Sandy is always providing her students with amazing opportunities to grow! Sandy has been a dedicated employee of York for a very long time and her retirement will be a very large loss to our students." Tracey Proctor - Nominator Lorrie Ann Martin, Bus Driver “Tracey always has a smile and words of encouragement for every one of us at the bus garage. She’s wonderful with students and doesn’t hold back from getting to know each one of them. She’s kind but also stern when she needs to be. I have been driving a school bus for 26 years and I appreciate the “boss” that is our supervisor now. She joins us in laughter but also lets us know when we need to be serious and listen. She always has the students' safety in mind.” Emma Durfee - Nominator Ed Green, HS ELA Teacher “Emma Durfee exemplifies what it means to inspire through education. As an ELA teacher, she brings literature to life in a way that not only engages her students but also encourages them to think critically, express themselves confidently, and connect deeply with the world around them. Her classroom is a space where students feel seen, heard, and valued—making it a true environment for growth. Beyond the classroom, Emma is a constant source of positivity and support for her colleagues, always willing to share resources, offer encouragement, and collaborate in meaningful ways. Her passion for teaching and her unwavering commitment to student success make her an outstanding candidate for district-wide recognition.”

With just about 12 school days remaining in their Senior year at YCS, the Class of 2025 enjoyed some time together camping out overnight at school. Sunrises over the valley are the best! So is the aroma of breakfast being cooked on the griddle. A little inside fun happened overnight, too. Seniors rule right now in Knight's Country!

Fifth-grade students have been learning about economics and entrepreneurship. The unit challenged the students to create a startup business and develop products to sell. The students created a wide variety of handmade products. They also created marketing materials such as product posters and advertisements. Each business received startup money. Their strategy was to develop and sell products that would break even or produce a profit. The students quickly learned that they had to spend money in order to make money (they had to purchase materials and rent items to get their businesses off the ground). The project culminated with a flea market that spanned three classrooms and featured each of the companies created by the students, and their products. Shoppers each received spending money to purchase the items of their choice. The market was bustling with eager shoppers who filled their shopping bags with great products. Thank you to the fifth-grade teachers for challenging the students with this great project, the students for working very hard on it, and for all of the staff who shopped at the flea market and made the students feel pride in their efforts.

Senior Lalaith Spencer is the 2025 recipient of the Staff Sergeant Alexandria Mae Gleason-Morrow Arts Scholarship, awarded by the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts. Lalaith is one of two Livingston County high school Seniors to receive the $350 award, which was named in honor of fallen airwoman Alexandria Mae Gleason-Morrow from Dansville. Lalaith was selected to receive the scholarship based on her strong academic performance, classroom participation, work ethic, involvement in activities, and community service. She plans to attend Alfred University for Art and Design. Gleason-Morrow was active in her high school arts program and aspired to be an art teacher once she completed her military service. The airwoman was a wife and mother serving in Jordan during Operation Iraqi Freedom. She died in 2017 from a non-combat accident loading bombs onto a plane.
