Mrs. Bryce’s students had a blast learning to code Ozobot Robots with black, red, green, and blue markers! 🤖✨ They were thrilled to see the tiny robots follow their marker lines and change colors to match! 🖍️ Photos: https://eastirondequoit.smugmug.com/Durand-Eastman/2024-25/Ozobot-Robots #LancerPride









📖🌟These DE reading buddies were hand selected by their teachers to help 3rd graders with their reading. The 4th and 5th grade students met for the first time today to get some pointers from Mr. Roach and Mrs. Duquette on how to be a good reading buddy. 🌟📚#LancerPride

The students explored geography, weather, and the importance of kindness, regardless of which team they support.

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!"
🤺🛡️🌟

📢 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
