Welcome Back!
Dear Alumni/ae of ICS and Assumption
Schools:
As pastor of the two Catholic parishes
in Tuckahoe and Eastchester, I wish to
welcome you back to where it all began,
your elementary school. Whether you
spent 9 years or 3 years with us, you
are still a very important part of the
Catholic schools in the Tuckahoe family.
I want you to consider this alumni page
a place where you can come back to the
memories of your beloved elementary
schools, a place where you can share
your memories of Immaculate Conception
and Assumption School!
To our alums from ICS, as
it was when you walked the hallways of
your school, ICS is still dedicated to
providing a value-based education for
each of our children. Presently we have
389 students representing 56 different
countries, from Eastchester, Bronxville,
Tuckahoe, Mt. Vernon, Yonkers, Danbury
Ct., and places near and far.
ICS still provides an education that is
marked by individual attention and by a
close-knit, talented, and diverse
community of students and parents,
teachers and administrators, all
collaborating in the education of our
children. The ICS academic program
provides a solid elementary curriculum,
but an ICS education goes beyond
academic excellence. We place the
highest value on the care and concern
for the whole child: body, soul, spirit
and mind. ICS provides opportunities for
our students to grow intellectually,
spiritually, physically, and
emotionally, while challenging them to
develop all of their God-given talents
and to use those talents in generous
service to others.
To our alums from Assumption,
though your school is now closed, the
building still stands as a testimony to
those who walked its hallways. You were
blessed to be taught by the very
dedicated Filippini sisters and faculty;
they truly were blessed years with many
cherished memories. The school was very
close-knit, and everyone knew each
other, just like it still is now in
town. Just take a walk through the halls
of the present-day Village Hall of
Tuckahoe and the memories will still
linger – the mayor of Tuckahoe sits
where “Sr. Helen” once sat and police
station occupies the former cafeteria.
The televised village Board meetings now
take place in the school library. The
memories are endless. The school may be
gone, but you now have a place to
connect to your schoolmates and
teachers!
Whether you went to ICS or Assumption,
stop by and visit ICS and hear once
again the lessons taught by the Sisters,
or hear the songs in Music class, or see
the art, or remember your first special
friend.
I thank you for visiting this very
special site and for your interest in
Immaculate Conception School. We look
forward to seeing you at the school on
the hill. Stay tuned for more
information on an upcoming
ICS/Assumption reunion!
Wishing you
the choicest of God's blessings, may I
remain
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Reverend Eric P. Raaser
Pastor of Immaculate Conception
Pastor of the Assumption
