Wonderful Week...

Hello Parents,

Everyone is really getting into a groove now! I love seeing you all at drop off and pick up! We have such a wonderful group of students! I hope you all are loving the new lobby as much as we are enjoying being in it everyday! There is so much going on already, and I want to fill you in on all of it.


The football team came to the Eagle's Nest today to lead our Devotional. What great role models those young men are to our spiritual growing students. It was wonderful to watch high school students and elementary school students interact together while singing and praising God in worship. Cory Teague spoke about treating others like you want to be treated! The students loved being able to walk through a tunnel the football players made and giving them a high five! I love the support we show between schools and to each other!  Please click on the "Eagle News" tab to see pictures from today's devotional.

I sent out an email yesterday with our drop off procedures on it. I hope you find this helpful and understand that your child's safety is first priority. Please take a few minutes to read over it!

There have been many questions about lunch and the policies in the cafeteria. We are currently working on a way to better communicate the menu with you. Cindy serves several items that are not always mentioned on the menu. Please be patient with us as we make changes. *Note: we have changed the charging policy back to where the students can choose what they need to charge due to forgetting their lunch or money.

The FUNDRAISERS have begun. Please get out there and help support our school. I know you all are already doing this, but just a reminder the turn in dates are August 23rd and 30th.

We will have a boy scout leader come and speak to our boys on Tuesday, August 30th.

I hope you all found lots of good clothing items in our spirit trailer! There is so much excitement around our first High School Football game tomorrow night! So let's dress in school spirit tomorrow and jeans!

I would like to thank all of those parents who have offered to volunteer. We will be contacting you soon for help with various activities around school. We appreciate you all so much, and we are happy you want to be involved.  I believe that the more a parent participates in their child's schooling whether it be- in advocacy, decision-making and oversight roles, through fundraisers and boosters, and/or as volunteers and para-professionals- the better for the student achievement.

Lastly, you will find two new tabs at the top of the page. If you click on "Terrific Ticket", you will see what all the excitement is about in receiving one of those. The other tab is "Discipline Policy" where you will find the policy and standards we are trying to uphold in our school. We believe all students deserve a safe environment where they can enhance their self-esteem, discover the joy of learning, and take important steps toward learning responsible decision-making.  Our goal in effective discipline is to help students learn to make appropriate choices through personal accountability and guided problem solving. As educators, we share the responsibility with parents to promote character building and service to our community.
