On #ThrowbackThursday we celebrate our #LancersforLife highlighting our East Irondequoit staff alumni! We are starting it off with Durand Eastman Elementary Teacher Katie VanEps...
"I loved my school years at East Irondequoit. Many teachers helped me along the way. I was involved in Lancer Band, sports, musicals and student government. I never considered working anywhere else. I have been a life-long Lancer and resident of Irondequoit. I am proud to work and live here and support our kids as they move through their school career!"
🤺🛡️🌟
Welcome back to our new/returning students and staff! We are so happy you are here! 🎒🚌🏫 Have a great day, Lancers! 💫
#LancerPride
ONE MORE DAY LANCERS! 😁👏 We can't wait to see you for the first day of school tomorrow! 🎒🏫

📢 Back-to-School Safety Alert! 🚌🛑
When a school bus stops with its red lights flashing and stop sign out, STOP! Our students’ safety depends on it! Remember, our buses are equipped with cameras, ignoring the flashing lights will result in tickets and fines. Let’s keep our students safe and obey the law. Kick off this school year with safety first!
New Urban Suburban students were welcomed to the district today by their building administrators. Students all taught the group a unique skill or talent. We are looking forward to seeing our new students grow and flourish! #LancerPride
