EAGLE EXPRESS
NOVEMBER 12, 2021
Eagle Academy encourages academic excellence by integrating proven instructional methods with a challenging curriculum and high expectations.This combination provides every child with the foundation needed to achieve proficiency of Eagle Academy’s performance standards at each instructional level.
SPORTS DAY
Come dressed in your favorite sports team jersey, uniform, sway or apparel. Whether you play a sport or are a fan, show your spirit. Students not dressed as an athlete or fan should come dressed in the APB approved school uniform.
Dress for the cold
Having appropriate snow gear is also important in case we have an emergency that necessitates vacating the building for a prolonged period of time.
Some students have had to sit inside and miss recess due to lack winter gear.
Striving for Excellence with Data Binders
Last week students were introduced to data binders. These binders will help students set goals and track their progress toward those goals. To help students have the courage, resolve, and strength of character to reach their goals we are calling these data binders their G.R.I.T. binders.
- Give it your all
- Redo if necessary
- Ignore giving up
- Take time to do it right
In February, teachers will review data binders with students and assess progress made toward their goals. All students who meet or exceed the goals set during their conferences with their teachers this week, will be invited to a celebration.
Please encourage your student(s) to take pride and ownership in their work and academic growth.

Have You Done This?
As part of the Eagle Academy Emergency Preparedness Plan, we would like each student to have a personal comfort kit. This kit contains special items to help children cope with stress & anxiety should we need to shelter in place during an emergency. The kits will be stored by class with our emergency supplies and will be returned to students at the end of the year on the last day of school.
When preparing your child’s comfort kit, please label and include the following items in a 1-gallon size Ziploc baggie:
1. one pair gloves or mittens and winter hat
2. one change of socks and underwear
3. one or two pre-packaged snacks (granola bars work well)
4. personal note to your child
5. family picture or small comfort item.
Please send this kit to school with your child as soon as possible. Ideally, we would like every student to have their kits in before we leave for Thanksgiving break. We appreciate your cooperation.
