Congratulations to our September Blue Ribbon Eddies! They were selected by their teacher for consistently demonstrating positive behavior throughout the school. These award winners were recognized on the morning announcements, presented a Blue Ribbon certificate signed by Eddie and a Blue Ribbon Eddie lanyard! In addition, they enjoy a special lunch at the reserved table with Mrs. Becraft.

Third grade students will begin sharing their slides and telling us about what animal they think would be a good companion for Eddie. Second grade and multiage students will continue learning about library tools and types of literature.

Happy reading and researching!

On October 12, 2023, Eagle Lake students enjoyed an apple during Apple Crunch, a statewide celebration of Michigan apples. Apples are a great pick-me-up snack that nourishes your body and mind.

Sincere appreciation is extended to the PTO for all their hard work with the fall fundraiser. Thank you, also, to all the families that participated in the fundraiser. The funds generated help all our students in so many ways!

Congratulation to Mrs. Mannor’s class. They were the top selling class at Eagle Lake!
