Renovations

During the 2006-2007 school year, the Durand-Eastman Intermediate School was being renovated. Its students were being housed at Ivan Green School (grade 3), Bishop Kearney School (grade 4) and East Irondequoit Middle School (grade 5). Now that the renovation of Durand Eastman is over, the students have returned to their "New" school. Residents of East Irondequoit Central School District voted on Tuesday, December 9, 2008 to approve the Generational Capital Project that includes construction and renovation work and purchase of buses to begin a district transportation service. There will be no tax increase for the proposed construction, however, increased taxes will be needed to pay for hiring teachers, bus drivers and maintenance for the new buses. The new district-based transportation system will reduce costs by estimated $700,000 per year, on average, through reduced expenses and new revenue. The project includes capital construction and renovation work and a district based transportation system. The proposal includes major improvements to the athletic facilities at Eastridge High School, which are more than fifty years old, along with renovation work at district elementary schools.
