School Board Appreciation Month!
Our students thrive because of leaders who care deeply about education and community. Thank you, Ms. Riggs, for the guidance, commitment, and countless hours you dedicate to ensuring our district continues to grow and succeed.

Tomorrow night, Averie Zinn will step onto the floor with the chance to do something incredibly rare, eclipse 2,000 career points, and place herself among the top 34 scorers in Michigan girls basketball history. Out of hundreds of thousands of girls who have played high school basketball in our state, this achievement puts her in the top one hundredth of one percent, truly elite company.
But milestones like this are never accomplished alone.
This moment reflects the countless hours in the gym, the teammates who trusted her, pushed her, and celebrated alongside her, the coaches who believed and challenged her, and the family, fans, and community who have filled the stands year after year. This is not just an individual accomplishment, this is a Genesee accomplishment.
We invite everyone to be part of this special night as Averie and our Wolves take on Clio in a home tripleheader.
🕓 Doors Open: 4:00 PM
🏀 Boys JV: 4:30 PM
🏀 Girls Varsity: 6:00 PM, Averie’s historic moment
🏀 Boys Varsity: approximately 7:30 PM
Come early. Pack the gym. Be loud. Be proud.
Let’s celebrate history together.
Data note: Historical ranking is based on publicly reported Michigan girls basketball career scoring records. Participation estimates are derived from Michigan High School Athletic Association annual participation data across multiple decades and reflect conservative estimates of unique athletes.
🐺 Go Wolves.

We Appreciate Our School Board !
Serving on a school board requires vision, patience, and a genuine commitment to the community. We are thankful for Ms. Schempf’s continued service and for the positive impact they make on our district every day.

Today we celebrate a school board member whose dedication, compassion, and thoughtful leadership help shape a strong future for our students. Thank you, Mr. Ferguson, for the time, care, and commitment you give to our schools and community. Your service truly makes a difference.
