MISSING STUDENT PROTOCOL
Policy Addition Consideration:
The Academic Policy Board is considering a new policy - Missing/Lost Child Protocol. Adding a policy for this was recommended by the Anchorage School District so that all school staff have a reference on how to respond if a student were to go missing during school or at pick-up, especially since as a Charter school we don't have exactly the same after-school procedures as a regular elementary school. Please see the attachment below.
A change in policy requires it to be put out as public notice to allow input from the school community. Input can be given by attending our next meeting and sharing during public comment, or can be given by emailing an APB member and asking it to be shared at the next meeting during public comment.
Eagle Academy Families,
The Eagle Academy Academic Policy Board (APB) is accepting applications for seats that are open beginning the 2022-23 school year.
Being a charter school, we have the unique opportunity to have our own governing body, which is what the Academic Policy Board is. The Academic Policy Board is responsible for creating school policy, approving and monitoring the school's budget, setting and monitoring goals for the program, selecting curriculum that aligns with EACS standards, overseeing the implementation of Eagle Academy's program, ensuring adherence to the school's charter and policies, hiring/evaluating/supervising the principal, and participating in staff interviews - all in accordance with the school's Charter.
The open seats on the board are:
Seats C (parent - 2 yr)
Seats F (parent - 2 yr)
Seat G (community - 1 yr)
All applicants will be placed on a ballot for election by majority vote of eligible parents as specified in the APB Bylaws.
Applications should be turned in to the school office in a sealed envelope labeled “APB Election Committee”. The due date for applications is Monday, 5/2/2022.
Please see the attached letter and application for more details.

PUSH BROOM PARTY: Want to get outside for some fresh air and maybe some exercise? We''ll be needing a group of parents to bring their push brooms and sweep the sand and gravel in the parking lot of Community Covenant Church a day or two before our Annual Field Day event. This is a great way to get those last few remaining hours of school service in before the end of the year. Date and time will be announced the first week in May.
If you would like to help, please contact Ms. Diana (dominguez_kutcher@asdk12.org) or Principal Carroll (carroll_deanne@asdk12.org) or your classroom teacher.
