Welcome to the 2015-16 school year in the East Irondequoit Central School District!
Every year when it comes time to put this calendar together I am amazed by all the events and activities which are
taking place throughout our district. There are very few days that there isn’t something going on somewhere.
It’s not just the quantity of events either-but the variety. From musical performances to athletic events to art
shows, there is something that will appeal to virtually everyone.
This is such an exciting time in East Irondequoit. When the school year begins every student will have access to a
personal computing device-a tool which will open up new and exciting approaches to learning and teaching.
Our schools have been accomplishing some great things recently:
-The Middle School has received its full status as an International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme School
-Eastridge was honored as a School of Opportunity by the National Education Policy Center
-The district was named a Top Music Community by the National Association of Music Merchants
-The Eastridge Wind Ensemble has been chosen to perform at Carnegie Hall this spring
These are only a few examples of the positive recognitions that we have received in the past year or so-and we know there will be more to look
forward to.
Remember that also in this calendar is the District Parent Guide which contains a great deal of information that will be useful throughout the
school year. Our district website (eastiron.org) is also a great way to keep up-to-date with the latest district news and happenings.
We are looking forward to another successful and safe school year here in East Irondequoit. We are so happy that you will be sharing in all of
the great things that lie ahead.
Sincerely,
Vision
Susan K. Allen

District Policies
Federal and State Laws Prohibit Smoking
in Schools, on School Grounds, in School Vehicles
In compliance with federal and state laws, smoking is prohibited
in East Irondequoit school buildings and on school grounds, including parking lots, walks, lawns and athletic playing fields, and in any
vehicles used to transport school district students or staff.
By law, East Irondequoit must post “no smoking” signs at points
of high visibility and must enforce the no smoking ban at all times
and on all school properties.
Public Use of School Facilities
Community organizations or other groups that wish to use East
Irondequoit school buildings and school grounds can contact
individual schools or the school district’s business office for more
information.
School main office phone numbers are listed in the directory
on the final page of this publication. The business office can be
reached through the district offices at 339-1260.
Any individuals or organizations interested in using school
facilities need to fill out an application form, which is available at
district schools and at the district's main office. Costs and insurance requirements for use of school facilities are based on the type
of facility needed and the length of time requested.
Mailing Practices for School District Publications
Our district calendar is combined with the parent information guide to create one publication. The School Calendar/Parent
Guide will be mailed only to households with students currently
attending our schools. By doing so, we greatly reduce production
costs. Publications, such as the “The Point” newsletters, will still
be mailed equally to all residents.
Residents with preschool or school-age children that have not
received a copy of the School Calendar/Parent Guide this August,
or those who do not have children but would like to receive a calendar, please contact the school district’s Communications Office
at 339-1230 or email Communications@eastiron.monroe.edu.
Any residents who do not wish to receive district newsletters
and other publications in 2015-16 can contact the Communications Office at 339-1230 to request that their address be removed
from mailing lists.
All residents will continue to receive budget information and
other legally required notifications.
The East Irondequoit Central School District hereby advises students,
parents, employees and the general public that it offers employment
and educational opportunities, including vocational education
opportunities, without regard to military status, sexual orientation,
race, color, religion, national origin, political affiliation, marital
status, ancestry, age, disability or any other status protected by law.
Inquiries regarding this nondiscrimination policy may be directed
to the Title IX and Section 504 Coordinator at 339-1250.
East Irondequoit Central School District
2015-16 Parent Information
For more information, visit our website at www.eastiron.org
Release of Directory Information
The following is considered directory information which can
be made public without prior consent from the parent of students
under 18 years of age or a student who is 18 years or older: parents’ and students’ photographs, video images, address, telephone
listing, date and place of birth, major field of study, participation
in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height (if
members of athletic teams,) degrees and awards received, and the
name of the educational agency or institution previously attended
by the student. Such information usually is released to publicize
students’ academic achievements and participation in school
activities through photographs and articles in district newsletters
and on the district's website, videotaped programs and releases to
newspapers, including photographs and written articles.
Board of Education Policy 3250 provides for release of lists of
names, addresses, and/or telephone numbers of parents, students,
or other residents, unless such lists would be used for commercial
or fundraising purposes. Telephone numbers and addresses of
employees will not be released.
Any individual may request in writing that any or all directory
information related to students and/or information on any lists
related to the individual or the individual’s family not be released.
Direct requests to the Assistant Superintendent for Instruction,
East Irondequoit Central School District Administration Offices,
600 Pardee Road, Rochester, New York, 14609, no later than September 11, 2015.
Notification to Parents
Pursuant to the federal No Child Left Behind Act, the school
district must disclose to military recruiters and institutions of
higher learning, upon request, the names, addresses and telephone
numbers of our high school students. However, the district must
also notify parents--and students who are at least 18 years old--of
their right to request, in writing, that the district NOT release such

EICSD Parent Involvement Policy
The East Irondequoit Board of Education Policy Manual in-
cludes a policy on parent involvement, developed by a stakeholder
committee of parents, staff and Board of Education members. The
policy was developed as part of an overall Policy Manual review
and revision process carried out by the Board of Education.
Board members felt strongly that the new Policy Manual should
include a policy on Parental Involvement and that parents should
be involved in the development of that policy.
The policy places an emphasis on the partnership between school
and parents that is essential for the success of all students. The
policy describes ways that parents, staff and board members can
work together to strengthen school and parent partnerships and
reflects the district’s commitment to involve parents in planning
Title I programs and improving the quality of East Irondequoit’s
academic programs.
The district strongly encourages parent involvement in
all school programs. The district believes that a partnership between school and parents is essential for the success of all students in every aspect of their education.
The district and the Title I Coordinator will work to involve
parents in the development of all Federal and State grants. District
PTSA/PTA will be charged with identifying a representative from
each school to meet at least once a year with the Title I Coordinator
to review the Title I program. Through district and Building Level
Site-Based Teams, the district will ensure that Title I parents be involved in the process of school review and improvement plans for any
school identified as being in need of improvement, corrective action
or restructuring, as defined by NCLB. Through coordinated efforts by the Office of Instruction,
building principals, site-based teams and district PTSA/PTA, the
district will assist all schools in planning and implementing effective parent involvement activities to improve student academic
achievement and school performance. Various assessment tools,
effective practices information and resource support programs for
parents will be used to implement the activities. The district will ensure that information sent to parents be in a
plain language format intended to be understood by all parents.
The district will support parents in understanding state and
local academic achievement standards and assessments as well as
Title I requirements. The district will provide materials and training to help parents improve their children’s academic, social and
emotional growth through literacy training, technology use and
understanding of learning styles, strategies, health and safety issues.
With input from parents, the district will provide professional development to all district staff regarding parent participation. Examples of professional development may include
how to reach out to, communicate with and work together as
equal partners with parents, ways to implement parent programs
and how to build home/school relationships. The district will conduct programs, such as parent resource
centers, that encourage, and support parents to more fully
participate in the education of their children. The district will
survey parent needs and provide a forum for parents to communicate their needs. The district will distribute information
to parents describing the opportunities and benefits available to them and their children through these programs.
The district/schools, with the involvement of parents, will conduct an annual evaluation of the content and effectiveness of the
parental involvement policy in improving the academic quality of
all schools. The evaluation should identify any barriers to greater
participation by parents (with particular attention to parents who
are economically disadvantaged, are disabled, have limited English
proficiency, who have limited literacy, or are of any racial or ethnic
minority background.) The findings of the evaluation should be
used to design strategies for more effective parent involvement and
revise, as necessary, the parent involvement policy.

International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program (IB-PYP)
Durand-Eastman and Laurelton-Pardee Schools are proud to
both be world schools for the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program. The IB-PYP is a school-wide program that promotes a love of learning through developing all aspects of a child:
social, emotional, physical, and academic. The Primary Years
Programme (PYP) is a philosophy and a way of teaching, developed by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO). The
IB-PYP is designed for students from 3-12 years of age. Through
concept driven inquiry, students develop their capacity to think
critically and to relate the experience of the classroom to the realities of the world outside. Beyond intellectual rigor and high
academic standards, strong emphasis is placed on the ideals of
international understanding and responsible citizenship.
The IB-PYP program uses student interest to study topics that
are of importance in the world in which we live. A main idea is
generated by the teachers and staff and the students explore these
broad themes in ways that interest them. Students work in an environment that fosters positive attitudes and develops a concept
of internationalism.
Through the PYP program children:
· Develop an understanding of important concepts
· Conduct research and develop knowledge that has local and
global significance
· Acquire and practice a range of essential skills
· Are encouraged to develop positive attitudes towards learning,
the environment and other people
· Have the opportunity for involvement in responsible action

final two years of high school. This program combines an
interdisciplinary study of humanities, sciences, and the arts
with a service component and extended research paper.
Taken as an entire program, or simply a single course as an elective, the goal of IB is to provide students with a curriculum that
encourages international-mindedness, citizenship, and a thirst for
knowledge. Students will learn valuable lessons in time management and may even earn college credit. With motivation as its
core requirement, IB provides Eastridge students a curriculum set
against an international standard.

funding. The services are coordinated with the regular program
of instruction. Educators review students’ performance on standardized tests and classroom assessments to identify students who
need academic support to achieve at proficiency levels on state
and local standards. For further information, contact your child’s
building principal.
Educational Services
School psychologists, speech pathologists, school social workers
and the occupational therapist and physical therapist work at all
levels with students who may have difficulty in educational, social,
motor, communication or emotional areas. These specialists
act as consultants to parents, teachers and administrators. They
function as part of a team to evaluate and make plans to ensure
that students have appropriate support services.
Early Intervention
Early Intervention (EI) is a voluntary developmental evaluation
and services program offered by New York State and administered
locally by Child & Family Health Services of the Monroe County
Department of Health. EI serves children from birth through two
years of age and their families where there is a high risk of delay,
a suspected delay in development, or a confirmed diagnosis of
developmental disability.
A variety of therapeutic and support services are offered to
infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families. There is
no cost to families for any of these services. For more information,
call (585) 753-5437.
Ninth Grade Academy
All ninth grade students at Eastridge High School attend the
‘Ninth Grade Academy,’ based in the eastern wing of the school. Academy classrooms are grouped together on the first floor of the
wing. Ninth grade science classrooms are based on the first floor
of the adjacent science wing. The separate space allows students
to make a more gradual transition from middle to high school.
Students are based for most of their day in the academy areas,
but share the library, cafeterias, auditorium and other support
areas with students in grades 10-12. Ninth grade students also have
access to advanced courses offered to students in grades 10-12.
The academy also is staffed by a team of teachers, drawn
from the 9-12 high school staff, who work together to support students, in line with adolescent developmental needs.
The academy provides a coordinated system of support for ninth
grade students as they tackle the full program of challenging Regents
courses that are required under the New York State curriculum and
are guided by the Middle Years Programme philosophy and AVID
instructional practices. The academy prepares students for the IB
Diploma Programme, Advanced Placement courses, the Project
Lead the Way Program and MCC courses. For more information,
contact Tim Heaphy, Principal of Eastridge High School, 339-1458.
Eastridge High School Schedule
Eastridge will follow the block schedule implemented in 2004-05,
with modifications supported by district administration, students,
staff and parents. There will be eight 42-minute blocks each day.
Students will be able to take up to eight courses per year, including
physical education. Courses run for a full year and meet three out
of four days, except physical education, which meets two out of four
days, and science, which meets four out of four days.
Lunches will start later in the day. A dedicated homeroom has
been added after second block for attendance, announcements and
distribution of important student information.
For more information, contact Doreen Goossen at 339-1450.
Special Education
The East Irondequoit Central School District offers appropriate
special education services to all children (3-21 years) whose families or legal guardians live in the school district. The district also
provides evaluations and services to students who attend private/
parochial schools within the East Irondequoit location. Parents
and school personnel work together to identify and meet students’
needs for special educational services. A “Parents’ Guide” booklet,
published by the State Education Department, is available to help
parents understand the special education process. The booklet is
available through the Office of Pupil Personnel Services, 339-1252.

parents, teachers and administrators as well as students.
Each middle and high school student is assigned a counselor
to assist with academic planning and the development of rich
and rewarding school programs.
At Eastridge High School, students are assigned to a counselor
in grade nine who remains with the student until graduation.
Through this system, counselors are able to provide consistent,
individual support to students throughout their high school
career, to develop positive relationships with families, and
build a lasting partnership to ensure student success.

Student Transportation Rules and Guidelines
Riding a Different Bus:
Students at the high school age level are not allowed to ride
a different bus than the one to which they are assigned. Due to
safety concerns for your children, this practice is discouraged
for elementary students. A permission note must be sent to
school if a student is going to ride a different bus than usual, or if
a student is to get off the regular bus at a different place. Please
include a contact telephone number on all such notes in the event
that the school needs to verify the information. ~This can only be
done on a “SPACE AVAILABLE” basis and for district residents
ONLY! It is preferred that students go home first; then to their
friend’s house.
What Can’t Go on the Bus?
1) No animals, insects, or other “creatures”, dead or alive.
2) No food items not in a proper storage container.
3) Any cell phone or personal music device that is annoying to another person.
4) Large items that do not fit inside a standard back pack
(ie skateboards).
5) Sports equipment and large musical instruments are a special privilege - once lost will not be reinstated.
Important Phone Numbers for Parents
Please use phone number 339-1526 when making calls such
as:
• Student not going to school
• Student does not require pm pickup
• Pick-up or drop-off time
• Lost article, etc.
Information on these areas is available at this number; plus
they have the ability to contact buses and convey your message.
Please make sure you have the following information ready when
you call: bus or route number, stop location and driver’s name.
Please use 339-1526 for information that pertains to routes or to
request a stop change.
The Board of Education’s policy is that a transportation system
be established and maintained in a safe, efficient and economical
manner. Transportation service for students to public, private
and parochial schools, subject to change by the voters of the
District as provided by law, will be as follows:
• Grades K-5, who live more than one-quarter of a mile from
school;
• Grades 6- 8, who live more than three-quarters of a mile from
school;
• Grades 9-12, who live more than one mile from school.
These transportation levels represent a mandated service under
state laws. In accordance with State Education Law, the district
provides transportation for students who live within 15 miles of
the out-of-district private or parochial schools which they attend.
Requests for transportation to private and parochial schools
must be submitted in writing to the Transportation Department
no later than April 1 preceding the beginning of the next school
year, or within 30 days after establishing residency. No late
requests by a parent or guardian for transportation shall be denied
where a reasonable explanation is provided for the delay and the
transportation can be provided at no additional cost.
Mileage is calculated from the student’s home (at the intersection
of the front walk or driveway, whichever is closer to the school,
and the road that services the home) and the nearest entrance of
the school for elementary students, to the main entrance of East
Irondequoit Middle School for middle school students, and to the
main entrance of East Irondequoit-Eastridge High School for high
school students. Mileage is computed on the basis of the shortest
distance between home and school along public roads or private
roads that meet district standards.
The travel distances to pick-up points are as follows:
• K-5 students will not be required to travel more than 1/4 mile
to the bus stop;
• 6- 8 students will not be required to travel more than 3/4 mile
to the bus stop;
• 9-12 students will not be required to travel more than 1 mile
to the bus stop.
Child Care Transportation
The district will provide transportation for children from kindergarten through eighth grade, from child day care locations
to schools, and from schools to after school child care locations.
Transportation will be provided equally under the following
guidelines:
• The school and child care location must be located within
the district and within the attendance area.
•Request must be received by July 15 for the next year or
within 30 days of moving into the district.
• Home to school, school to afternoon child care, or morning child care to school qualifies for transportation under
district policy for the school the child attends.
• The district restricts transportation service to child care
locations within the attendance zone of the student’s school
for child care locations not registered under Section 390
of the Social Services Law.
• Parents/guardians must submit any requests for changes
in their children’s transportation schedules in writing one
week before the change is due to take place.
• The district will not make changes in transportation initiated by a phone contact. The district must receive requests
for changes in transportation arrangements in writing from
the parent or guardian. Please allow a minimum of one
week to make the change.
Getting to the Stop: In the discussion of students getting to
the bus stop, no assumptions are made about how students will
travel to the stop. Students are not told to “walk” to bus stops,
because there are any number of ways for them to get to the stop—
including parents driving them there. Parents are responsible for
assisting children in getting to the stop and home from the stop.
The district is not required to provide a protected corridor from
students’ homes to the bus stop any more than it is to provide that
service for students who do not ride buses and must travel from
home to school.
Student Transportation--Audio/Video Cameras: Audio/
Video cameras have been installed on district buses. These cameras
are intended to identify individuals who may pose a security or safety
problem on the bus. Audio/Video data will be maintained for a period
of ten days, unless an incident has been reported, which will require
the file to be viewed and maintained as evidence.
2015-16 Bus Assignments, Pick-up and Drop Points
Parents will receive individual letters that provide information
on bus stop locations and times that children will be picked up and
dropped off, for each child who is eligible for transportation.
Bus Passes
Eastridge High School and East Irondequoit Middle School
students will use their school ID for their bus pass. These IDs will
be given to the students the first week of school.
Elementary public school students do not need passes.
Parent must receive students K-3.
Grand Circuit (Late Buses)
Individual grand circuit late buses will leave East Irondequoit
Middle School at 3:30 p.m. and Eastridge High School at 3:30
p.m. each school day. A joint grand circuit late bus will run for all
Eastridge and East Irondequoit Middle School students, beginning
at 5:15 pm.

East Irondequoit Central School District Code of Conduct (Abbreviated)
Introduction
As a result of the Safe School Legislation, which mandates that,
“All school districts shall adopt and implement a written policy
on school conduct and discipline,” this has been developed. It is
designed to promote responsible student behavior and was written
in consultation with students, parents, teachers, administrators and
other school service professionals.
It is the belief of the East Irondequoit Central School District
that everyone in the school community must play a role in contributing to an orderly school environment. Further, we believe
that an orderly school environment requires a code of conduct that
clearly defines individual responsibilities, categorizes unacceptable
behavior, and provides for appropriate disciplinary responses. With
this in mind, the following material has been developed. Please
refer to the district website for the complete “Code of Conduct.”
Appropriate and Acceptable Behavior of Students
The East Irondequoit Central School District deems “appropriate
and acceptable” conduct as actions in which students are deemed
in good standing. The following are examples of “appropriate and
acceptable” behavior:
1. Display academic honesty and integrity.
2.Respect the rights of others, including the right to secure an
education in an environment that is orderly and disciplined.
3.Attend school on a regular basis and be punctual at all
times.
4. Recognize the authority of teachers, staff, and administrators
to govern behavior and discipline students when at school, as well
as during any school-sponsored activities.
5.Contribute toward establishing and maintaining an atmosphere that generates mutual respect and dignity for all. This includes
conducting themselves in a manner that fosters an environment
that is free from intimidation, harassment, discrimination and/
or retaliation as defined in this Code, and to report and encourage others to report any incidents or intimidation, harassment,
discrimination and/or retaliation.
6.Respect school property and help keep it free from damage.

Language Deemed Appropriate for Students
Language deemed appropriate and acceptable or inappropriate

B.The School Board adopts the following language as unacceptable and inappropriate:
1.Verbal harassment on the basis of race, color, religion,

2.Profane or obscene words.

threatening or abusive language) towards staff or students.

to each student’s successful development and achievements. To
achieve this wholesome relationship, parent/guardians, in accepting
this responsibility, will be encouraged to:
1. Exemplify an enthusiastic and supportive attitude toward
school and education.
2. Build a good working relationship between themselves and
their child, his/her teachers and the school.

Removal of Disruptive Students From the Classroom and/
or School Property
Section 2 of the Safe School Legislation gives teachers the au-
thority to remove “disruptive” students from the classroom. This
removal must be consistent with the guidelines set forth in the
East Irondequoit Central School District Code of Conduct. The
power to remove a student from a classroom is not a replacement
for a classroom management plan; rather it is a supplement to an
effective plan. A student who continuously displays “substantial
disruption” or “substantial interference” will be referred to Instructional Support Team (IST) for the development of a student
management plan. Student removal is intended to provide a final
consequence before a school suspension is necessitated.
Duration of Removal by a Teacher
Duration of student removal by a teacher may not exceed the
following guidelines:
1.Secondary and Middle school – student removal may not
exceed three class periods per subject. A class period may be
defined as the prescribed time a student is scheduled to attend a
specific class per incident.
2.Intermediate – student removal may not exceed 45 minutes
per incident. Removal of a student may not exceed two consecutive
days per incident.
3.Primary– student removal may not exceed 20 minutes per
incident. Removal of a student may not exceed two consecutive
days per incident.
Acceptable/Appropriate Attire of Students
Acceptable and appropriate attire may be defined as clothing or
accessories that are suitable and not distracting to the educational
environment or school sponsored events.
Any outfit which is deemed to be unfit for school or school
sponsored events may result in requiring the student to change
outfits, or the removal or covering up of the unacceptable outfit
or accessory.
Unacceptable and inappropriate attire may include the following:
1. Clothing, which may be construed as disruptive or distracting
(such as midriffs, see-through garments, short shorts).
2. Clothing or accessories, that may include offensive images,
or slogans of sex, drugs, violence, or discrimination on the basis
of race, color, religion, religious practices, creed, national origin,
ethnic origin, ethnic group, weight, disability, gender (including
gender identity and expression), or sexual orientation.
3. Clothing or accessories that may be considered gang related
such as hats, beads, bandanas, etc.
4. Hats, bandanas/doo-rags, or any other head gear may not be
worn in school. However, the wearing of coats or bookbags may be
allowed at the discretion of the building Principal.
5. Outerwear (coats) are to be put in lockers/clothes closets

Comprehensive K-12 Student Attendance Policy 3190
Education Law Sections 3024, 3025, 3202, 3205, 3206, 3210, 3211, and 3213 8 New York Code of Rules and Regulations (NYCRR) Sections 104.1, 109.2 and 175.6
Statement of Overall Objectives
School attendance is both a right and a responsibility. The
School District is an active partner with students and parents in
the task of ensuring that all students meet or exceed the New York
State Learning Standards. Because the School District recognizes
that consistent school attendance, academic success and school
completion have a positive correlation, the School District will
develop, review and, if necessary, revise a Comprehensive Student Attendance Policy to meet the following objectives:
A) To increase school completion for all students;
B) To raise student achievement and close gaps in student
performance;
C) To identify attendance patterns in order to design attendance improvement efforts;
D) To know the whereabouts of every student for safety
and other reasons;
E) To verify that individual students are complying with
education laws relating to compulsory attendance;
F) To determine the District’s average daily attendance for
State aid purposes.
Description of Strategies to Meet Objectives
The School District will:
A) Create and maintain a positive school building culture
by fostering a positive physical and psychological environment
where the presence of strong adult role models encourages respectful and nurturing interactions between adults and students.
This positive school culture is aimed at encouraging a high level
of student bonding to the school, which in turn should lead to
increased attendance.
B) Develop a Comprehensive Student Attendance Policy
based upon the recommendations of the Professional Learning
Community Committee that includes representation from the
teacher’s union, the administrative team, and staff members.
C) Maintain accurate record-keeper via a Register of Attendance to record attendance, absence, tardiness or early departure of each student.
D) Utilize data analysis systems for tracking individual
student attendance and individual and group trends in student
attendance problems.
E) Develop early intervention strategies to improve school
attendance for all students.
Determination of Excused and Unexcused Absences,
Tardiness and Early Departures
Based upon our District’s education and community needs,
values and priorities, the School District has determined that absences, tardiness and early departures will be considered excused
or unexcused according to the following standards:
A) Excused: An absence, tardiness or early departure may
be excused if due to personal illness, illness or death in the family,
impassable roads due to inclement weather, religious observance,
quarantine, required court appearances, attendance at health clinics, approved college visits, obtaining learner’s permit, road test,
approved cooperative work programs, military obligations or other
such reasons as may be approved by the Board of Education.
B) Unexcused: An absence, tardiness or early departure
is considered unexcused if the reason for the lack of attendance
does not fall into the above categories (e.g., family vacation, hunting, babysitting, haircut, oversleeping.)
Student Attendance Recordkeeping/Data Collection
The record of each student’s presence, absence, tardiness
and early departure shall be kept in a register of attendance in
a manner consistent with Commissioner’s Regulations. An absence, tardiness or early departure will be entered as “excused” or
“unexcused” along with the District code for the reason.
Attendance shall be taken and recorded in accordance with
the following:
A) For students in non-departmentalized kindergarten
through grade five (i.e., self-contained classrooms and supervised group movement to other scheduled school activities such
as physical education in the gym, assembly, etc.), such student’s
presence or absence shall be recorded after the taking of attendance once per school day.
B) For students in grades six through twelve or in departmentalized schools at any grade level (i.e., students pass individually to different classes throughout the day), each student’s presence
or absence shall be recorded after the taking of attendance in each
period of scheduled instruction except that where students do not
change classrooms for each period of scheduled instruction, attendance shall be taken in accordance with paragraph “A” above.
C) Any absence for a school day or portion thereof shall be
recorded as excused or unexcused in accordance with the standards articulated in this policy.
D) In the event that a student at any instructional level
from kindergarten through grade twelve arrives late for or departs early from scheduled instruction, such tardiness or early
departure shall be recorded as excused or unexcused in accordance with the standards articulated in this policy.
A record shall be kept of each scheduled day of instruction
during which the school is closed for all or part of the day because of extraordinary circumstances including adverse weather
conditions, impairment of heating facilities, insufficiency of water supply, shortage of fuel, destruction of or damage to a school
building, or such other cause as may be found satisfactory to the
Commissioner of Education.
At the conclusion of each class period or school day, all attendance information shall be compiled and provided to the designated school personnel who are responsible for attendance.
Student Attendance
The District believes that classroom participation is related to
and affects a student’s performance and grasp of the subject matter and, as such, is properly reflected in a student’s final grade.
For purposes of this policy, classroom participation means that a
student is in class and prepared to work.
Consequently, for each marking period a certain percentage of
a student’s final grade will be based on classroom participation
as well as the student’s performance on homework, tests, papers,
projects, etc. as determined by the building administrator and/or
classroom teacher.
Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes. Consistent with the importance of classroom participation, unexcused
student absences, tardiness, and early departures will affect a student’s grade, including credit for classroom participation, for the
marking period.
Incentives
Each school, where administration deems appropriate, may develop positive student incentives to encourage good attendance.
Likewise, the District may also choose to design and implement
systems that acknowledge a student’s effort to maintain or improve school attendance.
Examples of incentives:
• Community donated gifts are given or raffled to students who
meet attendance standards.
• Students who meet the attendance standard can eat in a special area or with a special person in the school.
• Field trip arranged for students who meet the attendance
standards.
• Participation in extracurricular activities for the students
who meet attendance standards.
• Recognition award for 100% attendance each term.
• Students with perfect attendance selected to park in choice
locations.
• Attendance record used when considering issuance of working papers.
Notice of Students Who are Absent, Tardy or Depart Early
Without Proper Excuse
A designated staff member shall notify by telephone the parent/person in parental relation to a student who is absent, tardy
or departs early without proper excuse. The staff member shall
explain the importance of good attendance and review key elements of the policy related to student achievement with parents.
If the parent/person in parental relation cannot be reached by
telephone, the staff member will provide such notification by
mail. Further, the District’s Attendance Policy will be mailed to
the parent/person in parental relation to promote awareness and
help ensure compliance with the policy.

Comprehensive K-12 Student Attendance Policy 3190
Education Law Sections 3024, 3025, 3202, 3205, 3206, 3210, 3211, and 3213 8 New York Code of Rules and Regulations (NYCRR) Sections 104.1, 109.2
If deemed necessary by appropriate school officials, or if re-
quested by the parent/person in parental relation, a school conference shall be scheduled between the parent/person in parental
relation and appropriate staff members in order to address the
student’s attendance. The student may also be requested to attend this conference in order to address appropriate intervention
strategies that best meet the needs of the student.
Disciplinary Consequences
Unexcused absences, tardiness and early departures will result
in disciplinary sanctions as described in the District’s Code of
Conduct. Consequences may include, but are not limited to, inschool suspension, loss of parking privileges, loss of senior privileges, detention and denial of participation in interscholastic and
extracurricular activities.
Parents/persons in parental relation will be notified by designated District personnel at periodic intervals to discuss their
child’s absences, tardiness or early departures and the importance
of class attendance and appropriate interventions. Individual
buildings/grade levels will address procedures to implement the
notification process to the parent/person in parental relation.
Developing Intervention Strategies
In addition to the communication of the responsibilities of the
students, parents and school, the implementation of incentives
and the enforcement of consequences, each building administration will meet on a yearly basis to evaluate the effectiveness of
their intervention programs. New interventions will be discussed
and implemented with approval from the principal. All strategies utilized by each school will be summarized and sent to the
Director of Student Services who will maintain a current list of all
strategies used throughout the district.
Appeal Process
A parent/person in parental relation may request a building
level review of their child’s attendance record. Students/parents
must first appeal to the principal or his/her designee, in writing,
if they feel their attendance record is not accurate. The appeal
must be made within five (5) days of the disputed absence. At
this review, the absences will be discussed. Further appeals may
be made to the superintendent (or his/her designee).
Communication of Attendance Policy
A summary of the Attendance Policy will be printed in each
student handbook. Teachers will review the attendance policy at
the start of each school year. Parents will be sent a copy of the
Attendance Policy summary each year in the parent guide. Backto-school events and open houses will include an explanation of
the policy, stressing the parent’s crucial responsibility for ensuring
children’s attendance.
All staff will be provided with the Attendance Policy. They will
be made aware of the procedures necessary for the accurate attendance recording for each class they teach. Teachers will review the
policy with their students at the beginning of each school year.
Building Review of Attendance Records
The building principal will work in conjunction with the build-
ing attendance clerk and other designated staff in reviewing attendance records at the end of each term. This review is conducted to identify individual and group attendance patterns and to
initiate appropriate action to address the problem of unexcused
absences, tardiness and early departures.
Annual Review by the Board of Education
The Board of Education shall annually review the building
level student attendance records, and if such records show a decline in student attendance, the Board shall make any revisions
to the Policy and plan deemed necessary to improve student attendance.
Community Awareness
The Board of Education shall promote necessary community
awareness of the District’s Comprehensive Student Attendance
Policy by:
A) Providing a plain language summary of the policy to parents or persons in parental relation to students at the beginning
of each school year and promoting the understanding of such a
policy to students and their parents/persons in parental relation;
B) Providing each teacher, at the beginning of the school
year or upon employment, with a copy of the policy; and
C) Providing copies of the policy to any other member of the
community upon request.

Health and Pupil Personnel Services
Health Services
The district’s health services staff works to detect and treat any
health problems students may face because sound health is vital
for full academic achievement.
Health services staff members offer regular screening in a number
of areas to supplement regular physical examinations required under
state law.
As good health is vital for academic achievement, there is a
School Nurse assigned to each school. The nurse will care for
your child should s/he become ill or injured during school hours.
The School Nurse is also responsible for completing yearly statemandated screenings, and compliance with state mandates for
immunizations and physical exams.
If your child needs to take medication while in school, (this
includes over-the-counter medications such as Tylenol and cough
drops) the following requirements must be met before it may be
administered:
• written permission from the physician AND parent
• medication in the original labeled container
• delivery to school by an adult
State Education law requires physical exams for all new students
to the district as well as students in kindergarten and grades 2, 4,
7 and 10. Ideally, your child’s private healthcare provider should
complete these exams. If this is not possible, exams are provided
by the district’s Nurse Practitioner.
Should your child have any special medical issues or needs, please
feel free to call and discuss them with the school nurse.
Mandated Screenings
The New York State Education Department requires certain
screening exams to be done on certain ages or grades of children.
The New York State Department of Health (DOH) also requires
that your private health care provider reports and that the school
district collects information on your child’s Body Mass Index
(BMI) and Weight Status Category (WSC). Any information
requested by the DOH regarding BMI or WSC will not contain
identification of your child. However if you do not wish to have
your child’s unidentified assessment included on the survey, please
advise the School Nurse.
Home/Hospital Instruction
The district provides home/hospital instruction for those students
whose health problems require prolonged absences from school.
The following guidelines should be followed for the home/hospital
instruction:
1) Submit requests to the student’s principal as soon as a
prolonged absence is indicated.
2) The reason for the absence must be clearly documented by the family or school physician.
3)The district will make arrangements for home instruction after
receiving documentation from the physician, and developing a re-entry plan for the student.
For further information, contact Pupil Personnel Services 339-1252
Required Immunizations
It is mandatory for all students to be fully immunized. This
stipulation applies to all students, including those now attending
East Irondequoit Schools and new entrants. There are no exclusions.
Students will not be allowed to attend school unless the district has
proof of required immunizations.
Immunizations may be obtained from family health care providers or parents may wish to take advantage of free immunizations
for children under the age of 18 years offered by the Monroe
County Health Department, 274-6151. Please see the school district website, www.eastiron.org, for more complete information
on NYS required immunizations.

Food Service Program Prepayment Options
Each student at East Irondequoit has an account into which parents can deposit money for meals,
snacks, and drinks. We recommend that families use student accounts to avoid the necessity for
students to carry cash and for the convenience of pre-paid purchasing.
Convenient Meal Prepayment Options:
Grades K-5 Grades 6-12
10 breakfasts $13.50
$13.50
10 lunches $23.00
$25.00
20 lunches $46.00
$50.00
30 lunches $69.00
$75.00
You can deposit any amount into your child’s account for spending in the cafeteria.
Notify the School Nutrition Office if your deposit is to be used for purchasing meals only.
Parents may deposit funds in student accounts in any amount. These funds can be used for any
meal or a la carte purchase at breakfast and lunchtime. Students cannot withdraw money, or use
student account funds for vending machine purchases. Parents can contact the School Nutrition
office (339-1577) and request restrictions on student accounts to control student spending. Parents
can pre-pay for meals, or add money in any amount, to student accounts in several ways. The fastest and easiest way is to make deposits to student accounts online! Just go to the district website
at http://www.eastiron.org and under the EI Web Store tab, click on the MySchoolBucks link. You
will need your child’s student number to access his/her account. You can call the food service office
for your child’s number if your child cannot provide it. Once online, you can use your credit card
to deposit funds, or you can check your student’s account balance. The safest and easiest way to
pay for your child’s meals, milk, and snacks is to use his/her student account. You can also send a
check, money order, or cash with your student, to deposit with the cashier in the school cafeteria.
You can mail a check or money order (payable to “E.I. School Nutrition”) to the EI School Nutrition Office, 2350 East Ridge Road, Rochester 14622. Please include your student’s name and any
instructions for deposit. Call us with any questions you may have at 339-1577.
I Forgot My Lunch!
It can happen to anybody….you get to school and realize the lunch Mom packed is still at home,
sitting on the kitchen counter. Or you check your pockets for lunch money, and find only lint!
Students in Grades K-8 will be given a meal and the cost will be added to their account. Payment
must then be made the following day. The National School Lunch Program does not allow charges
to the program.
Here at East Irondequoit we offer fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh salads, yogurt, freshly made
sandwiches made on whole grain bread daily. We also offer age
appropriate menus that are designed to be nutritious and appealing to the students.

and lunch costs $2.30 at Helendale, Ivan Green, Durand and Laurelton and $2.50
at Eastridge and EI Middle School. Your children may qualify for free meals or reduced-price meals. Reduced-price meals cost $.25 for breakfast and $.25 for lunch.
To apply for free or reduced-price meals, you may apply on-line at www.eastiron.

Disability Assistance/NYS Education Department OR complete the enclosed application, sign it, and return it to the East Irondequoit School Nutrition Office, 2350
East Ridge Rd, Rochester, NY 14622. Please refer to the guidelines contained in this
letter when completing the application. We cannot process an application that is not
complete, so be sure to fill out all required information.
NOTE: You may apply on-line only once per school year; paper applications must
be used if you wish to re-apply for benefits later in the school year.
1. Do I need to fill out an application for each child? No. Complete only ONE
application for all students in your household to apply for free or reduced-price
meals. We cannot approve an application that is incomplete, so be sure to fill out all
required information.
2. Who can get free meals? All children in households receiving benefits from
SNAP (Food Stamps), TANF, or the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) can get free meals regardless of your income. Also, your children
can get free meals if your household’s gross income is within the free limits on the
Federal Income Eligibility Guidelines.
3. Can foster children get free meals? Yes, foster children that are under the legal
responsibility of a foster care agency or court are eligible for free meals. Any foster
child in the household is eligible for free meals regardless of income.
4. Can homeless, runaway and migrant children get free meals? Yes, children who
meet the definition of homeless, runaway, or migrant qualify for free meals. If you
haven’t been notified by the school that your children will get free meals, call 3391577 to see if they qualify.
5. Who can get reduced-price meals? Your children can get low cost meals if your
household income is within the reduced-price limits on the Federal Eligibility Income Chart, shown below on this application.
6. Should I fill out an application if I received a letter this school year saying my children
are approved for free meals? Please read the letter you received carefully and follow the
instructions. Call the school at 339-1577, if you have questions.
7. My child(ren)’s application was approved last year. Do I need to fill out another one
this year? Yes. Your child(ren)’s application is only good for that school year and for the
first 30 days of this school year. You must send in a new application each school year unless you have already received notification from the East Irondequoit School Nutrition
Office that your child is eligible for free or reduced-price meals this school year.
8. I receive WIC, can my child(ren) get free meals? Children in households participating in WIC may be eligible for free or reduced price meals. Please fill out and
submit an application.
9. Will the information I give be checked? Yes, and you may also be asked to send
in written proof.
10. If I don’t qualify now, may I apply later? Yes. You may apply at any time during the school year if your household size goes up, income goes down, you become
unemployed, or if you start getting SNAP (Food Stamps), TANF, or other benefits.
NOTE: If your income goes down or if you start receiving SNAP or TANF benefits,
you will be required to submit proof of your new income amount or a copy of your
benefit letter or Eligibility Letter for Free Meals from the NYS Education Department.
11. What if I disagree with the school’s decision about my application? You should
talk to school officials. You also may ask for a hearing by calling or writing to: Asst.
Superintendent of Business 600 Pardee Rd Rochester, NY 14609 (585) 339-1284.
l2. May I apply if someone in my household is not a U.S. citizen? Yes. You or your
child(ren) do not have to be U.S. citizens to qualify for free or reduced-price meals.
13. Who should I include as members of my household? You must include all people
living in your household, related or not (such as grandparents, other relatives, or
friends) who share income and expenses. You must include yourself and all children
living with you. If you live with other people who are economically independent
(for example, people who you do not support, who do not share income with you
or your children, and who pay a pro-rated share of expenses), do not include them.
14. What if my income is not always the same? List the amount that you regularly
receive. For example, if you normally make $1000 each month, but you missed
some work last month and only made $900, put down that you made $1000 per
month. If you regularly get overtime, include it; but do not include it if you only
work overtime sometimes. If you have lost a job or had your hours or wages reduced, use your current income.
15. We are in the military; do we include our housing allowance as income? If you
get an off-base housing allowance, it must be included as income. However, if your
housing is part of the Military Housing Privatization Initiative, do not include your
housing allowance as income.
16. My spouse is deployed to a combat zone; is his/her combat pay counted as income? No, if it is received in addition to their basic pay because of their deployment
and it wasn’t received before they were deployed, combat pay is not counted as income. Contact the school for more information.
17. My family needs more help; are there other programs we might apply for? To
find out how to apply for SNAP (Food Stamps) or other assistance benefits, contact
your local assistance office or call 1-800-342-3009.

How to Apply: To get free or reduced-price meals for your children you may submit
an Eligibility Letter for Free Meals received from the NYS Education Department,
OR carefully complete one application for your household and return it to the East
Irondequoit School Nutrition Office, OR apply on-line at www.eastiron.org. NOTE:
You may apply on-line only once per school year; paper applications must be used if
you wish to re-apply for benefits later in the school year. If you now receive SNAP
(Food Stamps), Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) for any children, or
participate in the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR), the
application must include the children’s names, the household SNAP (Food Stamp),
TANF, or FDPIR case number, and the signature of an adult household member. All
children should be listed on the same application. If you do not list a Food Stamp,
TANF, or FDPIR case number for all of the children for whom you are applying,
the application must include the names of everyone in the household, the amount
of income for each household member, and how often it is received and where it
comes from. It must include the signature of an adult household member and the
last four digits of that adult’s Social Security number, or check the box if the adult
does not have a Social Security number. An application that is not complete cannot
be approved. Contact your local Department of Social Services for your SNAP (Food
Stamp) or TANF case number, or complete the income portion of the application.
Reporting Changes: The benefits that you are approved for at the time of application are
effective for the entire school year. You no longer need to report an increase in income or
decrease in household size, or if you no longer receive SNAP (Food Stamps).
Income Exclusions: The value of any child care provided or arranged, or any amount
received as payment for such child care or reimbursement for costs incurred for such
care under the Child Care Development (Block Grant) Fund, should not be considered as income for this program.
Nondiscrimination Statement: This explains what to do if you believe you have been
treated unfairly. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimina-
tion against its customers, employees, and applicants for employment on the bases of
race, color, national origin, age, disability, sex, gender identity, religion, reprisal, and
where applicable, political beliefs, marital status, familial or parental status, sexual
orientation, or all or part of an individual’s income is derived from any public assistance program, or protected genetic information in employment or in any program
or activity conducted or funded by the Department. (Not all prohibited bases will
apply to all programs and/or employment activities.)
If you wish to file a Civil Rights program complaint of discrimination, complete
the USDA Program Discrimination Complaint Form (PDF), found online at http://
www.ascr.usda.gov/complaint_filing_cust.html, or at any USDA office, or call (866)
632-9992 to request the form. You may also write a letter containing all of the information requested in the form. Send your completed complaint form or letter to
us by mail to U.S. Department of Agriculture, Director, Office of Adjudication, 1400
Independence Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20250-9410; by fax to (202) 690-7442;
or e-mail to program.intake@usda.gov.
Individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing or have speech disabilities and wish to
file either an EEO or program complaint, please contact USDA through the Federal
Relay Service at (800) 877-8339 or (800) 845-6136 (in Spanish).
USDA is an equal opportunity employer.
Meal Service to Children with Disabilities: Federal regulations require schools and institutions to serve meals at no extra charge to children with a disability which may restrict
their diet. A student with a disability is defined in 7CFR Part 15b.3 of Federal regulations,
as one who has a physical or mental impairment which substantially limits one or more
major life activities. Major life activities are defined to include functions such as caring
for one’s self, performing manual tasks, walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing,
learning, and working. You must request the special meals from the school and provide
the school with medical certification from a medical doctor. If you believe your child
needs substitutions because of a disability, please get in touch with us for further information, as there is specific information that the medical certification must contain.
Confidentiality: The United States Department of Agriculture has approved the release
of students’ names and eligibility status, without parent/guardian consent, to persons
directly connected with the administration or enforcement of federal education programs such as Title I and the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP),
which are United States Department of Education programs used to determine areas
such as the allocation of funds to schools, to evaluate socioeconomic status of the
school’s attendance area, and to assess educational progress. Information may also be
released to state health or state education programs administered by the state agency
or local education agency, provided the state or local education agency administers the
program, and federal, state, or local nutrition programs similar to the National School
Lunch Program. Additionally, all information contained in the free and reduced-price
meals application may be released to persons directly connected with the administration or enforcement of programs authorized under the National School Lunch Act
(NSLA) or Child Nutrition Act (CNA); including the National School Lunch and
School Breakfast Programs, the Special Milk Program, the Child and Adult Care Food
Program, Summer Food Service Program, and the Special Supplemental Nutrition
Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), the Comptroller General of the
United States for audit purposes, and federal, state, or local law enforcement officials
investigating alleged violation of the programs under the NSLA or CNA.
Reapplication: You may apply for benefits any time during the school year. Also,
if you are not eligible now, but during the school year become unemployed, have a
decrease in household income, or an increase in family size, you may request and
complete an application at that time. NOTE: If you have already applied once and
your income goes down or if you start receiving SNAP or TANF benefits, you will be
required to submit proof of your new income amount or a copy of your benefit letter
or Eligibility Letter for Free Meals received from the NYS Education Department.
The disclosure of eligibility information not specifically authorized by the NSLA requires a written consent statement from the parent/guardian.
The School Nutrition Office will notify you in writing by mail when your application
is processed and either approved or denied.
Sincerely,
Debbi Beauvais, RDN SNS
Supervisor of East Irondequoit School District Nutrition Services

The East Irondequoit Central School District maintains an internet-based Parent Portal to promote
Parent Portal
educational excellence and to enhance communication with parents. The Portal allows parents/guardians
to view information about their children, including emergency contact information, class schedules, and
grades. The Parent Portal is currently available for the parents of Middle School and High School students.
To access the Parent Portal, parents/guardians will need to read the Acceptable Use Agreement on the
other side of this page. Complete and sign the form, and bring it in person to the Middle School or High
School main office beginning September 17th, along with a valid photo identification card (license, etc.).
If you need more forms, you may either photocopy the one on the next page or print one from the District
web site. After presenting the aforementioned form and ID, your unique Activation Key and instructions
on how to activate your Parent Portal account will be mailed to the address on record for you. This process
has been put in place to protect our students. You can activate and access your Portal account from any
Windows-based computer with Internet Explorer 6.0 or later. If you do not have this access from home,
you may use a computer at any Monroe County library branch with a valid county library card.
Once activated, your Parent Portal account will remain active as long as you have one or more children
in the East Irondequoit CSD, and will give you access to information for all of your children enrolled in
the Middle School and High School. Please do not apply for a new account each year. The Portal will be
available for use from mid-September through June 30th each school year.
Only those with legal custody of a student will be granted a Parent Portal account. You may be required
to produce legal documentation supporting your request to access student information via the Parent
Portal.

(339-1400) or High School (339-1450) main offices.

New Student Registration Process for 2015-16
Parents of incoming kindergartners and new students who are not yet registered for 2015-16 are strongly encouraged to call the
District Registrar’s Office at 339-1213 or 339-1251 as soon as possible for information on the district’s registration process, including
the list of documents parents must provide to the district to successfully complete the registration process.
Parents should contact the registrar’s office to obtain a registration packet and information necessary to register your child(ren),
or you may visit the district website at www.eastiron.org to download forms. Registration appointments are encouraged, or you may
attend one of our open registrations scheduled for Tuesday, August 11, 2015 from 5-8 pm; Saturday, August 15, 2015, from 9 am-1
pm; Thursday, August 20, 2015 from 5-8 pm. Please see the August 2016 calendar for 2016 open registration dates. All residency and
required documentation must accompany registration paperwork.
To be eligible to attend East Irondequoit schools, students must live in the district with their parents or with a legal guardian who
lives in the district, or meet other special residency requirements such as foster care placement. In shared-housing situations, a signed
affidavit and additional residency documents are required. Shared-housing applications must be renewed and reviewed annually.
All registrations take place through the Registrar’s Office at the East Irondequoit Administrative Offices, located in the LaureltonPardee Intermediate School, at the intersection of Pardee Road and Norton Street. The entrance to the Administrative Offices is on
the Norton Street side of the building. No registrations will take place at individual schools.
Please note: It is illegal to send a student to school without proper residency status. East Irondequoit investigates all situations in
which residency is not properly documented and will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law any violations of the residency policy.
The district urges residents to report questionable residency situations to the Registrar’s Office immediately at 339-1213.
East Irondequoit Pre-K Program
East Irondequoit runs a half-day preschool program located at Helendale Road Primary School, 220 Helendale Road, and Ivan Green Primary School, 800 Brown Road. This program is for eligible children who are four (4) years of age as of December 1, whose parents reside in
East Irondequoit. This program is run as a cooperative preschool and requires that all parents, or a significant person known to your child,
serve as a parent helper two times per month. Parents will be responsible for providing transportation.
Each eligible family will be randomly chosen through a lottery system formulated to be equitable. Information specific to the lottery is
mailed to families in February. Once families have been selected, they will be notified by the Registrar’s Office with information regarding
registration and screening. If you have any questions, please contact the Registrar’s Office at 339-1213 or 339-1251.
Parents of Preschoolers (Birth - 4) urged to complete/return census
To ensure that children are included on the district’s preschool census, parents of preschoolers are encouraged to contact the district either
by phone at 339-1213 or 339-1251, use of the form below or by visiting the district website at www.eastiron.org. The census form can be
found on the home page under the quick links section. Families included in the census will receive mailings about preschool programs, and
