Eastwood Heights Parent Update
February 3 - February 7
Eagle Up: Soaring into February! 🦅
Dear Eastwood Heights Families,
Time is flying, and we’re now in February with just four instructional weeks left before Spring Break. Every school day matters, and we appreciate your partnership in ensuring our Eagles arrive on time and ready to learn. As we approach testing season, every minute in the classroom counts—daily attendance is key to student success! Let’s keep making gains and rising together!
As a reminder, student safety is our top priority, and we kindly ask that all families pick up their children on time at 2:45 PM dismissal. Timely pick-ups help ensure a smooth and secure end to the school day.

Eagle Up: Together We Rise!
This Week’s Focus: Complete Homework. Ask for Help. Stay Positive!Success starts with the right mindset and habits! Here’s how we can help our Eagles soar this week:
- Complete Homework: Staying on top of assignments is a great way to build responsibility and confidence. Let’s make sure all homework is completed and turned in on time!
- Ask for Help: Questions are the foundation of learning! Encourage your child to reach out to their teacher whenever they need support. Seeking help shows strength and a willingness to grow.
- Stay Positive: A positive attitude can make all the difference. Let’s remind our Eagles to face challenges with optimism, support their peers, and celebrate every victory, big or small!
Together, we can make this week another step toward success. Let’s rise up, Eagles! 🦅
