Mrs. Bearden's Weekly Update

Mrs. Bearden's Message: March 17, 2025
Dear Eagle Canyon Families,
Thanks to your support, the PTA earned approximately $19,000 from Thursday's Apex event. While the rain prevented the students from running, they danced their hearts out and had tons of fun. We are incredibly thankful for the parents who were there to help and support the event.
HAPPINESS WEEK
This week, Eagle Canyon celebrates Happiness Week. Our Student Council and Safe School Ambassadors have planned a week of happy events for our students to enjoy. Be sure to ask them about it throughout the week. We also have themed spirit days each day of the week. The classes with the highest percentage of participation have the chance of earning bragging rights and getting a huge trophy in their class.
SPRING BREAK
Spring Break begins Monday, March 24. School resumes on Monday, March 31. Enjoy the time with your family and friends.
ATTENDANCE CHALLENGE
Congratulations to the M. Liu family! They won Priority Parking for February. We are tracking attendance to see who will be in the drawing for March Priority Parking. Good luck!
Thank you for your continued support,
Mrs. Bearden

Attendance Information
Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow
Eagle Canyon's student attendance will be a focus this year. Attendance in school leads to better performance for children when they are adults.
Please make illness the only reason for an absence. When your child misses school, they miss out on necessary instruction, and it takes a while for them to get caught up. Parents of students at risk of Chronic Absenteeism will have to meet with Mrs. Bearden or Mr. Choi to sign an agreement to improve overall attendance.
We did not meet our goal last week, averaging 93.52%, a decrease from the week before and almost 3% below the district goal. Thank you for making your child's attendance a priority. In the Ayala Feeder, we placed fourth out of five elementary schools. 😪 Let's continue to make attendance a priority.
🍩Donut be Late!🍩
Each week, the stars of the school with impeccable attendance and zero fashionably late entrances will bask in the glory of donut holes courtesy of the Eagle Canyon PTA! Brace yourselves, as two mystery days each week will be the golden ticket for this sugary delight.

Additional Information
BIRTHDAY GREETINGS ON THE MARQUEE
Another way you can support our PTA and celebrate your child's birthday is to purchase a birthday greeting for $25 that will be displayed on your child's birthday and run for one week. If interested, please stop by the office, complete the request, and submit the payment. Please be sure to plan in advance. We need two weeks' notice before the birthday to ensure everything is timed correctly.
The kids get so excited seeing their birthday highlighted on the marquee. Out of safety, we will never publish your child's last name, only the initial.
CHARACTER TRAIT - MARCH
Each month, Eagle Canyon will focus on teaching students about a character trait. We will share it during our Monday Morning Rallies, and teachers will reinforce it by recognizing one student each month for a monthly award.
WEEKLY SPIRIT DAYS
Monday: Wear green or orange
Tuesday: Dress to impress
Wednesday: Wear clothes inside out
Thursday: Dress like a celebrity
Friday: Dress in Disney gear
SUPPORT EAGLE CANYON
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 $53.60 this year. Our goal is to earn $500. Please return the coupons to the school office if you also get them. Be sure to select the grade level that you want to support. Thank you in advance for your support!
