Don’t miss out on the West
Genesee High School musical
production of
Once Upon a
Mattress!
The classic fairy tale “The Princess and the Pea” is told with a humorous twist in the Broadway classic Once Upon a
Mattress. Students at West Genesee High School will perform the musical on February 4, 5, and 6.
Once Upon a Mattress tells the story of Queen Aggravain (Madeline Shuron), whose kingdom has a law which states that
no one is allowed to marry until Prince Dauntless (Avery Miller) marries a princess that the Queen finds suitable. Twelve
princesses have been put through twelve tests to prove that each is worthy of the Queen’s son… and each suitor has failed.
Lady Larken (Sarah Sveen), one of the Queen’s ladies-in-waiting, makes a discovery that compels her to send her true love
(Nick Trippany as Sir Harry) on a journey to find a princess who can pass any test she is faced with. When Sir Harry returns
with Princess Winnifred (Maura Philippone), the people of the kingdom are shocked to see that she is like no other princess
they have ever seen before. But Winnifred immediately wins Dauntless’ heart as well as the hearts of everyone she meets.
That is, the heart of everyone except his overbearing mother. With the mute King Sextimus (Ezra McKeon), a traveling
Minstrel (Tracy Dowler), and a silly Jester (Sarah Channels) around to help out, it seems as though Winnifred is sure to
pass the test. However, the Queen and her assistant (Joe Pelton as The Wizard) have created a test that Winnifred is sure
to fail.
Matt Aldinger, Caitlin Barry, Grace Craig, Sean Herron, Marisa Hurst, Victoria Lee, Allie Leonard, Micayla MacDougall, Val
Mattice, Cameron McCrea, Camryn Mulpagano, and Julia Musengo round out the cast.
The musical is directed by Dan Callahan, produced by Andrea Scerbo, and choreographed by Andrea Leigh-Smith. Anthony
Alvaro is the music director; William Mercer, Jr. is the lighting director; Matt Makowiec is the technical director; and
costumes have been designed by Cindy Kissane and Lisa Mason.
The show is on Thursday, February 4 and Friday, February 5 at 7:00 p.m. There will also be a matinee at 2 p.m. on
Saturday, February 6. Tickets are $12 and can be purchased in advance on etix.com or at the door.

the Month” for January.

comes to class with a great attitude. She goes above and beyond for every assignment. She requests extra work to
make sure she is prepared.”

dependable student who is willing to participate. She is bright and knowledgeable in the subject matter, and is often
willing to take risks as she frequently volunteers in class,” states Mr. Haines.
Math League - Members of the West Genesee High School Math League recently participated in the January Onondaga County
Math League competition. Participants compete against other schools from
across the county, on a monthly basis, by completing a series of individual and
team relay mathematics questions. Scores from these questions are compiled

Reading has impacted and improved my life in more ways than I can count. Research continually shows positive correlations to reading
and intellect. This blog came through my feed and I thought the writer self-discovered what I’ve believed for years…
8 Benefits of Reading (or Ways Reading Makes You Better at Life)
1. Reading Makes You Smarter: readers have higher intelligence, do better academically and stay sharper as they age.
2. Reading Reduces Stress: reading is relaxing and provides distraction and escape, especially when reading fiction.
3. Reading Provides Greater Tranquility: reading forces you to sit quietly and still. To learn more, check out this 6 minute TED
Talk by Lisa Bu on “How Books Can Open Your Mind” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ibCtsHgz3Y).
4. Improved Analytical Thinking: reading improves your knowledge base. Readers are better at spotting patterns and have
better analytical skills.
5. Increased Vocabulary: reading exposes you to new words. The vocabulary in books is more sophisticated than in typical
conversations. Increased vocabulary = increased intelligence.
6. Improved Memory: a habit of reading improves your mind and memory. Reading keeps the mind sharp as you age.
7. Improved Writing Skills: writers read. Good writers are avid readers. Read more, write better.
8. Helps Prioritize Goals: reading allows your mind to wander. Reading opens you up to new possibilities. Reading can provide
ideas, impetuous and guidance.
Make a habit of reading. If reading is important to you, you’ll find the time, you’ll find a way. Make your life better today; pick up a good
book and read.

Seniors … The Scholarship Hunt Begins
Many seniors have begun their search for scholarships. Some have indicated that they are confused about how to begin or what to do.
Begin your scholarship hunt by visiting our website - www.westgenesee.org. Under Career Center, you will find current scholarship
information which is listed and updated regularly. If a scholarship requires a generic application, the easiest way to apply is to go to our
website, choose the generic electronic form listed towards the bottom of the scholarship page. By filling out this electronic version, you
can save it, and then use it over again. Simply change the name of the scholarship each time. Prior to submitting an application, be
sure all requested requirements are attached, and then submit the completed application to Mrs. Tarolli in the Counseling Office. It is
extremely important that you allow time for your counselor to get information gathered including your transcript and recommendations.
Please plan on submitting scholarships two weeks before their actual due date. Be sure to check the website often, as it is updated
frequently. We also recommend that you check out www.fastweb.com for national scholarships. Applying for scholarships is extremely
time-consuming. Most scholarships require essays, however sometimes you can use one that you have already written by changing or
adding a few key sentences. Because of the competitiveness of these scholarships, mistakes are generally not accepted. It is highly
recommended to have someone edit your applications. Parents, feel free to call me at 487-4647 or e-mail [email protected]
with any questions or concerns you may have. GOOD LUCK!!!
Juniors … It’s Time!!!
The winter recess is a great time to visit college campuses. Campuses are in session and filled with students. This is a great week for
visitation especially for those who have other commitments in the spring. Call the campuses you wish to visit to set up an appointment
or to reserve a spot when they are holding an open house. Reservations can sometimes be made on the specific college’s website.
There is a Campus Visit Check List available in the Career Center.
It is also time to register for upcoming SAT’s. They are offered on March 5, May 7 (given at West Genesee High School) and June 4.
Students should register at www.collegeboard.com by February 5 for the March test date. There are a limited number of seats
available. If West Genesee is your preferred location you should register for that no later than April 8 to avoid late fees. Please keep
your user name and password in a safe location. Students cannot retrieve their scores without them. Please keep in mind that there are
“new rules.” Students will NOT be admitted without an admission ticket that has their picture on it. Be sure the picture is clear and
that the student taking the test is the only person in the picture. The ticket can be obtained at the website upon registering. Students
will also need a picture i.d. such as a permit, license, school i.d. or passport. Also, the option of going stand by to any exam NO
LONGER EXISTS.
The ACT dates are April 9 (at West Genesee High School) and June 11. Register for this exam at www.actstudent.org. Students are
encouraged to prepare for these tests. Not only can scores help students get admitted to the college of his/her choice, but can increase
students’ chances of being considered for scholarships. Students can do practice tests/questions on Method Test Prep found on
Naviance, or take a prep class at West Genesee High School. The prep class dates are TBA. There are many other practice sites.
Google SAT or ACT practice questions and sites will come up.
March is Career Month in the Career Center. There will be many representatives from our community coming in to share their
backgrounds, education and occupations. If any parent would like to volunteer about 40 minutes to talk to students, please contact me
at 487-4647 or e-mail [email protected]. These mini-sessions are very informal, small groups.
