Principal Update
2/10/23
Dear LP Families,
Happy Friday!
"What's going on in the inside shows on the outside."
Earl Nightingale
We proudly hung a new sign outside our main entrance this week, showing our community that we honor the contributions of our black and brown scholars, their families, and their history. While this celebration lasts a month in February, we as a school community know we have to work towards change every day. In East Irondequoit, we see the potential for academic success regardless of skin color, set high expectations for every student, and think of cultural differences as assets to learning. We look at our students every day and think...their future is bright! Let us know what you think of the sign!
Speaking of bright futures, we are so excited for our school play taking place this Friday night, 2/10 at 7:00pm. Please come and support our amazing students. Tickets can be purchased at the door for $2 a ticket (children under 5 are free!). See you there!
Last but not least, there are a ton of pictures from this week sprinkled throughout the newsletter. Be sure to scroll through to check out all the amazing things happening at LP!

Arrival- Morning Drop-off!
I was hoping the additional cones and signage would help support a safer morning drop-off but unfortunately we still have vehicles going around cars instead of waiting in line. This jeopardizes the safety of our students.
If you are familiar with picking up your student from school than this will make sense to you! We are going to move drop-off to the same location as pick-up, by the gym doors towards the back of the building. We will still have a single file of cars but I believe this will help keep traffic from backing up to Pardee Rd. with the additional space.
A few things to remember:
*Doors do not open until 8:20am.
*Do not drop your student off early. We do not have supervision until 8:20am.
*Students should wait in your car until you pull up to the gym door. We will unload students one car at a time.
*On average, there are 35 cars during morning arrival. This should not take long once families are used the routine.
*Do not go around other vehicles. You place our kids at risk of being hit by car.
As always, thank you for your continued support in making our procedures as safe as they can be!
