Lansing Central School District

💙 What a homecoming week it was! 💛

The high school hallways were transformed with decorations from each grade, displaying our student’s creativity in every corner! 🎨

Our school spirit showed up strong with an exciting pep rally, full of music, fun competitions, and a spectacular performance from our cheerleaders! 🥁🥳

We closed out the week with a big win by the Lansing Bobcats in a football match against Moravia, in which our Bobcats battled back from a 16-point deficit to claim an incredible 36 - 22 victory! Go Bobcats!! 🏈🎉

Last week showed what Bobcat Pride is truly all about! What a way to celebrate Homecoming! 🐾💛💙

Behind every great first day is a whole lot of hard work! ✨💪

Before students return to classrooms tomorrow, Lansing staff came together to kick off a new school year. Opening day began with a delicious breakfast, followed by a welcome message from Superintendent Pettograsso. 🎤👏

After that, teachers and staff spent the day preparing classrooms, organizing materials, planning lessons, collaborating with colleagues, and making sure everything is ready to welcome our students!

We are so grateful for the incredible amount of hard work, dedication, and teamwork everyone puts in to make the start of the year special! 🏫🌟

Last Friday, Lansing High School Seniors gathered in front of the High School before beginning their annual Senior Walk.

From the Elementary School to the Middle School and back to the High School, our Seniors proudly walked through the halls, filled with cheering students & staff, high-fives, and Lansing pride.

Thank you to everyone who helped celebrate the Class of 2026 and send them off with so much love and encouragement! 💙💛👏

We’re so excited to see where they’re next steps lead! But no matter where they go, once a Bobcat, always a Bobcat! 🐾

🍎🥗 We recently welcomed school food service teams from across New York State as part of our partnership with the Chef Ann Foundation!

Lansing showcased how we've transformed our meal program over the past three years by reducing processed foods, increasing scratch made menu items, and transitioning to fresh protein preparation!

Guests toured our central kitchen, learned about our operations, exchanged ideas, and enjoyed a delicious lunch prepared by our talented food service team.👨‍🍳

It was a fantastic day of collaboration, learning, and celebrating nutritious school meals. Thank you to everyone who joined us! 🙌
