This is an opportunity for staff to connect with each student creating a family like atmosphere to have open conversations and an opportunity for students to learn more about each other. Staff participated in a Learning Walk on Friday, March 8th observing both small group reading and Classroom Circles. Our staff continues to grow and implement best practices. There is no better Professional Development than learning from one another. Afterwards, students from the No Place for Hate Committee delivered beverages and chocolate.

Eagles Skate City Night is 6 to 8 pm Tuesday, April 5. Admission is $6 and skate rental is $3.Wear a crazy hat!
Events like these and so many more would not happen without dedicated PTA volunteers. Thank you to everyone who has given of their time to support our students. Now it’s your turn!
Two additional Walk-a-Thon committee members are needed for the 2022 fundraiser. If additional volunteers do not sign up by May 15, we will not be able to hold this fall’s event. Without the Walk-a-Thon, PTA will not have the funds to support its many initiatives. The time commitment is minimal and the impact is huge! Email eagleacespta@gmail.com to volunteer.
PTA is in need of a President-Elect and a Secretary for the 2022-23 school year. Contact Brittaney VanderHagen or Sascha Cariveau for more information.
The next PTA Meeting is 6:30 pm Monday, April 11 in the Eagles third-grade pod. Meetings last one hour and child care is provided. Attend and find out how you can help make Eagles an even better school for your student!
