Congratulations to Chris Whible on receiving our E
Congratulations to Chris Whible on receiving our Employee of the Month award for July! This award recognizes Chris' exceptional efforts in carrying out the Mission, Vision and Values of the Agency. "Mr. Whible is an outstanding member of not only Newburger Cottage but this entire campus. He has recently been promoted to the Newburger Shift Leader position and has done amazing things with building relationships with his co-workers and residents alike. Chris makes himself available at all times; for example, if there are issues during school hours he is here or if there are issues at 3 am he is waking up and coming to work. While Mr. Whible is the Shift Leader, he always makes himself available during crisis situations on campus and is a HUGE asset to the support team. He brings a happiness and joy to Newburger Cottage with his humor and HUGE heart. He has truly helped the staff in his cottage become some of the most hard working, dedicated and loyal employees on this campus. He takes pride in having the most successful "family" on campus because here at Newburger we're not just staff, we’re a family and Mr. Whible is a blessing to us.” Thank you, Chris, for your dedication to the Agency and the youth we serve! 👏👏👏 #wgaforchildren #carefirst #childwelfareheroes

Congratulations to Chad Eccleston on receiving our Employee of the Month award for June! This award recognizes Chad's exceptional efforts in carrying out the Mission, Vision and Values of the Agency. “This man works hard everyday, every hour!!! The things this man does should never go unnoticed...constant care of A-wing at Butler Cottage. We have fresh towels everyday(A /B wings) because this man will bust his butt every night making sure that the morning routine will run well. Chad seems to never be upset and is in control at all times with residents. He is also well-liked by every resident at Butler. I feel very lucky to have been placed here, with a co-worker like Mr. Eccleston. Chad will help you out at the drop of a hat and is always reliable. Bottom line, this man is a perfect example of a GREAT employee!!!” Thank you, Chad, for your dedication to the Agency and the youth we serve! 👏👏👏 #wgaforchildren #carefirst #childwelfareheroes

Congratulations to our Class of 2020: Cheyenne, F
Congratulations to our Class of 2020: Cheyenne, Fatima, Emerald, Stephan, Jacobe, Kevin, Marshall, Phil & Joe!! While in-person high school commencement ceremonies have been largely canceled during these difficult times, the staff of George Junior Republic and The William George Agency wanted our Seniors to mark their transition as graduates in a meaningful way. On June 24th, the Seniors participated in a parade and were led through campus in a decorated wagon. A huge thank you to the Dryden Police Department, Dryden Ambulance and the Freeville Fire Department for their involvement and for helping to make this an unforgettable celebration! Along the route our Seniors were acknowledged by their staff and fellow students who were cheering them on while holding posters and banners they made in their honor. The parade concluded with the Seniors participating in a small tree planting ceremony to commemorate their graduation in the midst of such unique circumstances. We continued to celebrate our Seniors on June 26th with a graduation ceremony. This was not the traditional ceremony that we are accustomed to but we maintained a commitment to honoring our Senior Class the best that we could. Our ceremony included our Senior’s family and loved ones by utilizing Zoom technology allowing their participation during each student’s personal procession. A link was also shared with the campus to allow everyone to view the graduation ceremonies from their respective cottages. -Christine Sanford & Dana Twigg, GJR UFSD 📷: CJ Brown & Bogdan Grigoriu #gjrufsd #wgaforchildren #childwelfareheroes #covidgrad

Although the 2020 Dryden Dairy Day has been canceled, the Agency continues to support our local community and it's essential farmers. We’ve decorated our cows and they are now on display in Time Square in the Village of Dryden.
