Our Fall Picture Day is on Thursday, September 12. Below is a flyer for more information about how the picture day process works, how to order (after the pictures have been taken), and delivery information.

If you are dropping off your child late or picking them up early, we do need to ask for the absence reason in order to properly code the absence. Thank you for your understanding and support!

We are recruiting volunteers to help get the school year off to a great start! We need volunteers to help with the drop-off process until our 5th-grade student patrols are in place. If you can help, please sign up here:

• Safety Patrol volunteers: Safety Patrol Volunteer Sign-up

We are also looking for volunteers to help in the cafeteria to begin the school year. If you can help, please sign up here:

Students who are walking or biking and using the new path that connects Eastview with 179th Street will walk out with their class as they go to buses. When they arrive, they will wait by Door 6 and come in with the students who are unloading from the buses.

Start of School Day

• 9:10 a.m. Students may enter the building
• 9:17 a.m. First bell - Students go to their classrooms
• 9:25 a.m. Second bell - Classes begin

End of School Day

End of Day Checkout Process For the 2024-25 School Year

If you need to pick your child up before our end-of-the-day dismissal, we are asking you to do this before 3:30 p.m. Due to heavy volume in the front office, we cannot check out students from 3:30-3:55 p.m due to capacity. We made this change to ensure we get each child where they need to be. We appreciate you picking up your child before 3:30 p.m. or at dismissal.

Eastview Families,

All K-5 iPads that were issued last year, along with the charging cords and charging blocks should now be at school. If your student still has any of these items at home, please send them to school right away. Thank you for your quick attention to returning all iPads and chargers.

Incoming 1st-5th graders: On the first day of school, all students should bring their iPad, charging cord and charging brick.

Incoming Kindergarteners: Your students will receive an iPad in their classroom within the first week of school.

This year we will be doing a gradual release of devices, which means students will not take their iPads home right away. In general, we will follow this schedule.

• Kindergarten - Grade 2: iPads remain at school full-time unless for 2nd grade special projects after MEA break

• Grade 3: iPads can be sent home starting the day before winter break unless for special projects after MEA break

• Grades 4-5: iPads can be sent home starting the week of MEA break

This allows teachers time to teach responsible iPad use, and set expectations so that students have the knowledge and skills to safely and effectively use their iPads to enhance their learning prior to bringing them home. We will continue to reinforce rules and expectations with students throughout the school year and teach lessons on digital citizenship. Additionally, we will share tools and tips with parents/guardians throughout the year, to help you help your students be successful.

Thank you for your support.
