Eagle Academy Weekly Update
Week of October 4, 2020
In-person instruction is right around the corner. Bus passes are being printed up today. They should arrive sometime next week along with a welcome back letter. And what exactly will "coming back" look like? It will be different that's for sure. If you want to get an idea check out the short videos produced by our district communication czar Leanna Mullen entitled #EHTReady. Not every item in the video series will apply to Eagle, but you'll get the idea.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns please give us a call.
Be Safe,
Mr. Smith

Climate and Culture
From Mr. Collesano
Are we always listening to people we should be? In this video I discuss what it means to listen, who we should be listening to, and maybe more importantly, who we shouldn't be listening to and why.
Art students finally get their own sink! A big thank you to Dave Milnes, our hard working district plumber for making this happen!

Week of Respect
As we acknowledge "Week of Respect", here are some stats YOU need to know about bullying:
- In the US, 1 in 5 students ages 12-18 has been bullied during the school year.
- Approximately 160,000 teens have skipped school because of bullying.
- Students who reported that they were frequently bullied scored lower in reading, mathematics, and science than their peers who reported that they were never or rarely bullied.
- The most commonly reported type of bullying is verbal harassment (79%), followed by social harassment (50%), physical bullying (29%), and cyberbullying (25%).
- Labeling an incident as bullying can be important because it influences whether students tell an adult, as well as how adults respond to the student’s report.
- More than half of bullying situations (57%) stop when a peer intervenes on behalf of the student being bullied.
- 6th grade students experience the most bullying (31%).
- 70% of school staff have seen bullying. 62% witnessed bullying two or more times in the last month, and 41% witness bullying once a week or more.
- Students are less likely to report bullying as they get older. Only 39% of high schoolers notified an adult of bullying.
- 42% percent of students who reported being bullied at school indicated that the bullying was related to at least one of the following characteristics: physical appearance (30%), race (10%), gender (8%), disability (7%), ethnicity (7%), religion (5%), and sexual orientation (4%).
- Over half of students ages 12-18 who reported being bullied believed their bullies had the ability to influence what other students thought of them.
