Hello to all the game players!
This is the third year our fourth-graders
are participating in the landmark game. We are looking forward
to some good clues and research opportunites.
Allen Creek is one of five elementary schools
in the Pittsford School District. Pittsford has a population of
about 20,000 people and we are a suburb of Rochester, New York.
We are between Buffalo and Syracuse and do not get the amount
of snow those two places do.
Our school is the smallest elementary school
with 370 students. Our mascot is a Cricket and our colors are
yellow and green. Our students have opportunities to join Student
Council, Library Club, Physical Education Club,Chess Club, French
or Spanish Club,Newbery Club and others. The Buffalo Bills are
a favorite football team and starting next summer, the Bills will
train at a college field in Pittsford! We enjoy the
Rochester Rhinos Soccer team and the Rochester Redwings baseball
team.
In our area we have many places of interest
to tourists. We are the home of George Eastman, Xerox, Bausch
and Lomb,Susan B. Anthony. Niagara Falls is not far away and we
have our own Genesee Falls where Sam Patch supposedly made a jump.
