On Thursday, October 3, 2024, there will be a dedication of the memorial wall built to remember the old Greece School No. 5, which once stood at 1790 Latta Road. The event will take place at 5:30PM at the GSCD Transportation building which now occupies the site of the former school and is open to the Community.
The dedication will include a land acknowledgement read by students at Paddy Hill and the unveiling of a time capsule which will be placed inside the wall.
The time capsule will include letters from students, a letter from GCSD Superintendent Kathy Graupman, old and current maps for the Town of Greece, solar eclipse glasses, history book about School No. 5, and a photo of the Board of Trustees from the Greece Historical Society. It will also include the contents from the 1930-time capsule (coins, newspapers, class roster, letter from school Superintendent and ledger of architects).
There will be a small reception after the event. The event is free, and all are invited.
