Tuesday, 08 April 2008
When seeking competent, aggressive, business leadership, people don’t automatically think of the local high school student body. But for Heather Abbott, Kara Aird, Maribeth Hunt, Caitlin Lucas, Josh Page, Aron Pfeffer, and Cory Schoonmaker, high school students at Wells Central School, sharpening their business acumen is considered a fun, after-school activity.
These high school students will put their practical business skills to the test against students from across New York State during the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) State Leadership Conference on April 7-9 in Ellenville, NY.

Wednesday, 13 February 2008
As a finalist in the National Merit Scholarship program, Wells High School senior Cory Schoonmaker is anxiously awaiting word that he is among the 8,200 students nationwide who will receive a Merit Scholarship. Cory hopes this honor will help him secure a spot in the freshman class at Cornell University – his first choice for college.
When Wells native Mildred Stanyon Colvin turns 100 on Feb. 8, her mailbox in Florida will be filled with hand-made birthday greetings from Wells.
Dozens of students in grades preK-3 spent a recent Morning Program at Wells Central School working on the cards with their teachers and Wells Postmaster Liz Forsell, who visits the school a couple times each year.
