Eagle Academy Virtual Parent Meeting
Eagle Academy had another successful bi-weekly parent meeting online to keep parents in the loop. Here is the link to this week's Power Point presentation.
Our virtual schedule
- Each class period will meet once per week from 9-10 or 11-12, Tuesday thru Thursday.
- Mondays and Fridays are check-in days. Students are expected to contact their teachers for any help they need, or for work they have missed.
Class times are not the only times students are expecting to be working. Teachers give assignments and follow-up work that is expected to be done during other than class times.
Please be sure to attend all live classes with your teachers!
Parents, would you like a Weekly report card?
It’s a weekly snapshot of how your child is doing in each class. Google classroom automatically generates a parent/guardian email report. It includes work done, not done, any grades, etc. in all of the student’s Google classes. Parents & guardians will be getting an invitation from Google classroom in your email in-box. Simply respond to the email and you’ll start getting those reports. If you don’t see an email invite check your spam folder. Or, it could be we don’t have your correct email address. Please contact Director Smith if you would like another invite sent.
As always, parents should also check the Parent Portal in Infinite Campus for up-to-date grades in all their child's classes.
Staff contact info for the digital age!

Community Connection
Mrs. Bowker says get outside and enjoy the weather!
Missing the Library?
History Movie Night
USI: Ken Burns: The West is a documentary about the settlement of the American West. Being locked inside with lots of time in front of the television is the perfect time for a Ken Burns documentary.
USII: We are learning about the 1970s, so watching Tom Hanks in Charlie Wilson's War is an excellent way to learn about America's role in the Afghani fight against Soviet control during the Cold War. Another good movie would be Argo, starring Ben Affleck, about the CIA extraction of American diplomats from Iran during the hostage crisis.
World Cultures: The Lost Batallion is an excellent movie about a group of American troops in WWI. It is available for free on YouTube.
A message about social distancing, from Alexis Arienta:
School Nurse Newsletter (Happy Nurse's Day!)
Even though we are currently not in the office we are checking our emails regularly throughout the week. We are also checking the voicemails left in the office. Any questions or concerns with regards to medical inquiries please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Keeping You and Your Family Safe.
While we are learning more about this virus every day, there is still much that is unknown at this time. What we do know is that practicing hand hygiene and social distancing is imperative. Social distancing is deliberately increasing the physical space between people to avoid spreading illness. Staying at least six feet away from other people lessens your chances of catching COVID-19. What does this mean for you?
1. Wash your hands as often as you can (Remember to sing the ABC’s or Happy Birthday song)
2. Refrain from large gatherings
3. Be proactive in your health and well-being
4. Practice prevention
