Dear GEC Family,
As we gear up for another exciting school year at Genesee Early College, I want to extend a warm welcome back to all of our students and their families. We hope you had a wonderful summer and are ready for a year filled with opportunities and growth.
This year, our focus is on providing a comprehensive support system that integrates both academic excellence and social-emotional well-being. We are committed to delivering a challenging and engaging curriculum while also implementing new programs and resources designed to support our students’ mental and emotional health. Our goal is to ensure that every student has the tools and support they need to excel both in the classroom and beyond.
We are particularly excited to introduce our new school counselor, Mrs. Niki Wiederman. She brings a wealth of experience and a strong dedication to student well-being, and she will be a key part of our efforts to enhance both academic and emotional support throughout the school year.
We have also hired a new teacher to replace Mrs. Garcia who retired at the end of last school year. Mrs. Angie Hoskey-Pocza will be teaching Spanish I, Spanish II, and a section of Biology for us this year. Additionally, as our school continues to grow, we are in the process of hiring another new teacher. This new addition to our team will help us maintain the high standard of education and personalized attention that our students deserve. We look forward to introducing them soon and sharing more about how they will contribute to our school community.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Together, we are creating a dynamic learning environment where every student can thrive. Please stay tuned for updates and information about upcoming events and opportunities to get involved.
Here’s to a fantastic school year ahead!
Warm regards,
Robert McAllister

IMPORTANT!! - Genesee Early College students are expected to attend GCI when GCI is in session. This means that even if Genesee Early College has not started or has a day off, students will not be excused from GCI by Genesee Early College. This is also true for college classes and part of being a responsible GEC student.
Students are now able to come to the GEC main office to check out college textbooks for the fall semester. Please follow the directions in the College Materials Process/Procedures form attached below. A copy of the check-out form is also attached. Please remember that we will not check out fall materials until you have returned college textbooks from last spring.
We know that you are super busy and that you may prefer to receive information from us in different ways. At GEC we have several ways that we send out information; phone calls, email, Google Classroom and text messaging with Remind.
We encourage you to sign up for Remind to get messages sent right to your cell phone through text or notification. To join Remind, text @gecparents to the number 81010.
If you aren't on our Google Classroom, go to classroom.google.com, click on Go to Classroom, and you can join by using this classroom code - wbcvzah.
We are super excited to have Mrs. Niki Wiederman join the Genesee Early College Family this year as our school counselor. Mrs. Wiederman has been a counselor in Genesee County for over 30 years. She has jumped right in and is excited to get to know all of you!
