Mrs. Bearden's Weekly Update
October 2, 2023
Dear Eagle Canyon Families,
Last week was another great week at Eagle Canyon. Several families participated in the Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) Parent Informational Meeting. Ms. Landgraf, our sixth-grade teacher and President-elect for the California Association for the Gifted, shared a dynamic presentation focusing on essential strategies and information for parents to support their children.
The highlight of last week was the Woodstone Pizzeria/Baskin Robbins Scoop Night. Eagle Canyon was well represented by several teachers and our MTSS-B counselor, Mr. Armstrong, who all scooped ice cream for our amazing Eagle Canyon community. Congratulations to Mrs. Edwards' class for winning the class competition! They have earned a Baskin Robbins class party. Thank you to everyone who supported this fun event!
We surpassed our original Thinknlocal goal thanks to your support on Thursday night. We are currently only $446 away from the new goal of $1,250.00. When you shop locally, please take a moment to check the app to see if the business is supporting our fundraiser. If so, take another moment to scan the receipt.
Thank you for your continued support,
Mrs. Bearden

Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow
School starts every day at 7:50 a.m. To ensure our students make it to class on time, we offer breakfast and supervision beginning at 7:20 a.m. Between 7:15 and 7:35, traffic is very light.
We only missed the 96.5% attendance goal once in the last nine days. That is fantastic! Please make illness the only reason for an absence to ensure your child is prepared by the end of the year.
Parent Internet Safety Information
This meeting will be held as a hybrid event to ensure everyone can participate. A Zoom link will be shared in a separate Parent Square message.

PARKING LOT/TRAFFIC
First, I would like to thank the families who work with our staff members to keep traffic moving in our parking lot. We are all trying to get cars in and out of the parking lot as quickly as we can.
- We have two loading zones, one in front of the cabanas and the other on Eagle Canyon Drive directly in front of the school. Please avoid parking in these two areas as one car can affect traffic for everyone.
- Please stay in your car when dropping off or picking your child up from the loading zones. We must keep traffic moving so everyone can get to school on time and finish before the teachers on duty leave at 2:40 p.m.
- Refrain from blocking cars that need to back out of their parking spaces. Several staff members leave our school to go to other school sites, district meetings, or other jobs. Please work with them so they can safely get to their next destination.
- Please do not park in Staff Parking or the two Reserved spots. Our teachers and support staff must be in classrooms ready to welcome students at the beginning of the school day.
- U-turns are not allowed in front of the school on Eagle Canyon Drive. It creates an unsafe situation and many times creates more traffic.
- Finally, cars cannot enter a crosswalk when the crossing guard is crossing pedestrians.
Thank you for working with us to ensure everyone gets to school and returns home safely!

A popular fundraising opportunity all families can support is Box Tops. Download the Box Top app on your phone. You must scan your receipts on the Box Top app within 14 days of the purchase. The app will let you know if any purchased items qualify to earn 10 cents per product. If there are not any items, you will still have an opportunity to enter the sweepstakes to win 500 bonus Box Tops. Every receipt has the potential to earn our school money.
As of today, our school has earned $23.50 this year. Our goal is to earn $1,000.00. Please turn the coupons into the school office if you also get them. New this year, the PTA plans to host grade-level competitions. Be sure to select the grade level that you want to support. Thank you in advance for your support!
