VOICES OF GV BOCES

Person with curly hair in a room with chairs and motivational posters. He wears a long-sleeve shirt.

“I like being in the LIVES program because I get to be with my friends and learn how to navigate different places and be the best version of myself. Being on a college campus is fun—it’s a new experience, but it’s a good one."

Ty A.
Woman with blonde hair in a green hoodie with a cross necklace sits in a chair.

"I’m majoring in Communications and Media Arts, and I’m really big into music. I play drums in bands and I’m constantly around music. That’s kind of always been my thing."

Jaidyn F.
Man with glasses, ID, and lanyard sits at desk with keyboard, phone, cup, and papers.

"What I've appreciated most about my career is the opportunity to see how unique BOCES is. Few organizations can offer the breadth of programs and services that we do. Every division serves students, but they all share the same goal of helping students find success."
