FCSD partners with Feedmore WNY to offer our community a school food pantry stocked with nonperishable items such as cereals, snacks, canned goods, and meal kits. Parents/guardians can make use of our online order form below, reach out to learn more or to "shop" in person. Middle and High School students can "shop" in the pantry by working with their School Social Worker.
Students in Pre-K through Grade 4 are eligible for the Backpack Program, which sends a bag of nonperishable food home over the weekends. Interested students/parents/guardians can work with your teacher and School Social Worker to get signed up.

Congratulations to our 7th & 8th grade Modified Volleyball team on an incredible season! 🖤
The Lady ‘Billies finished with an impressive 8-2 record, won every set in their 4-team mid-year tournament, and came out on top in five full 5-set match wins throughout the season! Their dedication, teamwork, and determination were on full display from start to finish.
Modified volleyball plays such an important role in building the foundation for future success. It’s where athletes develop core skills, confidence, and communication, and learn what it truly means to be part of a team. This year’s group demonstrated all of that and more.
We are proud of these student-athletes for representing Fredonia with heart, sportsmanship, and a love for the game.
Attention parents and guardians of a member of the class of 2026!
The deadline to make their senior yearbook even more special is fast approaching. Recognize your student’s milestones and successes with a custom ad before November 24th!

The Fredonia Boys Modified Soccer team finished their 2025 season with a 12-1-1 record, taking the League Championship with a 3-2 victory over Southwestern in double overtime. The boys all worked hard and played well together to make this season a huge success. Congrats to all student-athletes and coaches! Nicely done!
As reported in the Observer, congrats to both Meredith Lendt and Trenton Krenzer for strong finishes this past Friday at the CCAA Championships.
Girls top-10 finishers who were not on top-three teams included: second-place Lendt of Fredonia/Westfield (19:49.19), third-place Olivia Harmony of West Valley (19:51.22), fifth-place London Hamilton of Jamestown (20:11.94), seventh-place Isabella Czekanski of Fredonia/Westfield (20:26.99), and 10th-place Kinley Belleisle of Olean (20:29.20).
Fredonia/Westfield was third in the boys' race with 72 points. Trenton Krenzer was 10th (17:10.63), Pietro Cabitza was 13th (17:39.34), Jimmy Fagan was 15th (17:44.39), Solomon McKnatt was 19th (18:09.79), and Nathan Keefe was 21st (18:14.58).
Thanks to Matt Spielman for the photos.
The Section VI Championships will take place next Friday at Elma Meadows. The state meet is slated for Saturday, Nov. 15 at Queensbury High School.
As reported in the Observer, Fredonia outscored Dunkirk 16-0 in the second half to spoil homecoming and Senior Night with a 16-7 rivalry victory at Karl Hoeppner Field.
“Man, what a game,” Ayden Wronski said after the game. He scored both of Fredonia’s touchdowns in the victory.
The annual rivalry showdown between crosstown foes that dates back more than a century was as hard-fought as one would expect. It was a game that somebody had to win, but it was played with the intensity of a game where both sides felt they needed to win.
“This rivalry means so much to so many people. I never had anything like this growing up, and even coaching,” Fredonia head coach Greg Sherlock said. “This is a big deal. I don’t have to say a whole lot to them. They know what it’s all about. They feel it.”
Thanks to both Braden Carmen and Ashleigh Brown for their great coverage of our local sports programs.
Our very own Tyler Putney has continued his basketball career at Nazareth and will be playing in a game on October 25th at 3:30 PM at the KeyBank Arena in Buffalo. Go Tyler! The Nazareth vs. Daemen matchup will be followed by Syracuse University vs. University of Buffalo at 7 PM.
