40 weeks+ pregnant and still present to celebrate our Dakers at our Awards Ceremony! What an absolute honor to stand side by side with two incredible leaders. It has been such an amazing experience leading alongside Carol Stehm as our interim principal 💙💛@WestIrondequoit

Back in March, Dake staff members threw me a baby sprinkle! I am so lucky to work with an amazing group of people💙💛

We love and appreciate our Dake staff members! 💙💛

🌟 Today is Administrative Professionals Day, and we’re proud to shine a spotlight on the incredible team members who keep West Irondequoit running smoothly every day. From coordinating schedules to supporting students and staff, answering calls to juggling countless behind-the-scenes tasks — your dedication does not go unnoticed. Thank you for every contribution, big and small, that helps make WICSD a welcoming and exceptional place to learn and grow! 💙💛 #AdministrativeProfessionalsDay #WICSDProud

Dake Junior HS is excited to invite 6th grade families a 7th Grade Parent/Guardian Information Night on Thursday, 5/1 at 6:30 PM in the All-Purpose Room at Dake. Note: Due limited space, this event is for parents/guardians only. A student-centered orientation happens in August.

Our 8th graders who did not go to DC are having a blast bowling and playing arcade game at Bowlero! @WestIrondequoit

Math 8 students graphing their trip to the bathroom. I made the cut on some! But it looks like I need to do some teaching around maximizing class time 😂@AkwaaJoyce @WestIrondequoit

I am always so impressed by our district’s musicians! Another wonderful chorus concert with a special treat at the end where our Dake 8th graders performed along with the high schoolers! @WestIrondequoit @AkwaaJoyce

It’s a good day to have a good day….and be kind 💙💛 #dakejrhigh @WestIrondequoit
