District History

Selected Former Superintendents

Previous assignment and reason for departure denoted in parentheses

2013-present

In 2013, the district underwent major changes. State funding to the district was cut much like all over New York State. District-wide enrollment dropped, and over 10% of the staff in the district left the payroll. The Alternative Learning Center was closed and students were sent back to either East or West High Schools. The start times and bell schedules of the middle and high schools were changed and moved to an earlier time to minimize transportation costs. Middle School grades were changed from previously 7–8 grade to 6–8 on the West side and 5–8 on the East side. East Elementary school which formerly shared a building with East Middle school was closed to accommodate the new grades in the middle school. The former K-4th graders at East El. were sent to nearby Clinton Street Elementary School or Northwood Elementary School and the former 5th and 6th graders at East El. moved to East Middle school. [5th graders no longer at West Seneca middle schools]

In 2015, Potters Road Elementary School closed due to a vote by the school board, but was reopened for the 2021–2022 school year under the name Winchester Potters Elementary School.

In 2021, Winchester Elementary School had to close down also due to a vote by the school board. Also, fifth graders were moved back to Clinton Street and Northwood Elementary Schools

Schools

At the high schools, over 10% of the students are enrolled in Advanced Placement Courses. The high schools offer National Academy Foundation diplomas in the courses of the Academy of Finance and the Academy of Information Technology. Over 80% of the graduates seek higher education opportunities. Looping through grade levels have been implemented in the elementary grades as well as middle school. A district-wide gifted and talented program exists at the intermediate and middle school levels.
