Yesterday, Genesee Valley BOCES brought together food service staff from school districts across the region for a comprehensive Food Service Personnel Conference at Geneseo Central School District. The event was designed to provide valuable training, inspiration, and networking opportunities for those who play a crucial role in ensuring the health and well-being of students through school nutrition programs. One of the highlights of the conference was the keynote address delivered by Ervin Watson, a 17-year veteran of school nutrition. His talk, titled "Bend Don’t Break," was both motivational and insightful. Watson shared practical strategies for increasing personal capacity and resilience, encouraging attendees to adopt a positive perspective on challenges and to let go of unnecessary burdens. His empowering message resonated deeply with the audience, leaving them inspired to become the best versions of themselves despite any obstacles they may face. This year’s Food Service Personnel Conference was a resounding success, providing attendees with valuable tools, insights, and inspiration to continue their important work in school nutrition. The event not only enhanced their professional skills but also strengthened the sense of community among those dedicated to nourishing the next generation.

The Special Education Summer Summit 2024 was a success. Educators and administrators from the area, including Christopher Suriano, Assistant Commissioner of Special Education, attended. This year, we had two students speak during the Regional Student Spotlights, and they were truly inspiring. Anneka Pray, a recent graduate of Pembroke Central School, shared her experiences of being blind from birth and how she navigated school, sports, and the challenges she faced. Sam Drake from Wayland Cohocton Central School spoke about his proposal of Braille to the Board of Education and his experiences with inclusion in a public school setting using assistive technology. The summit also featured breakout sessions and guest speakers. Thank you to everyone who attended.
