Report cards were sent home on January 8th. If you haven't done so already, please take the time to carefully review the report card with your child. It is an excellent opportunity to celebrate successes and discuss any areas where additional support or improvement might be needed. If you have any questions or concerns about your child’s performance, please do not hesitate to contact your child’s teacher. We are here to support your child’s growth and success.

In addition to reviewing the report card, I encourage you to reflect on your child’s progress with them, focusing on their strengths and achievements, as well as setting goals for the next term. Your active involvement in your child’s education plays a critical role in their academic journey.

Should you wish to discuss the report card or any other aspect of your child’s education in more detail, please feel free to schedule a meeting with the teacher or reach out to to us (your principals).

Thank you for your continued partnership in supporting your child’s learning. We look forward to working together to ensure the best possible outcomes for all of our students.

Every Friday, your student will be receiving a reading passage or words to practice at home. You will also find a monthly calendar on the "Return to School" side of their take home folder for you to initial each day that your student practices these passages or words. Please leave it in your student's folder for the teacher to check. The goal is to practice daily (20 minutes is best). There will be rewards/incentives for those students who are practicing at home.

Capturing Kids' Hearts: Respect

In January, our focus in the Capturing Kids' Hearts program is all about respect. Respect is giving value and honor to oneself and others. It can include respecting life, property, parents, elders, nature, and the beliefs and rights of others.

Want to be an Eastside Hallway Hero?

Hallway Heroes are volunteers who help provide support at our building. Some Hallway Heroes open car doors in the morning or afternoon, volunteer in the workroom helping teachers, read to students, and even help out during lunch.

Hallway Heroes must pass all district required background checks. They must also follow district and building-level policies and procedures and demonstrate professional conduct at all times. If you would like to sign up for Hallway Hero training, please contact Central Administration Office at 743-3563 or complete this form.

*If you have participated in Hallway Hero training previously, you do not have to participate in the training again. However, you will be required to pass a background check every year.

Our Eastside Behavior Matrix is a tool used to define expected behaviors in various settings throughout the school environment. The matrix helps foster a positive, predictable, and safe environment, which enhances learning by promoting consistent behavior throughout the school day.

When a student's account reaches -$10, you will get an email reminder. The school office will call if it reaches -$25. Central Office will contact you if the account is not paid.

Just a reminder:

Breakfast is free this year for all students. Breakfast ends daily at 8:00.

Lunch costs:

Reduced Lunch: (No charge)

Regular Lunch: $2.65

Milk/Water: $. 50

*if your child does not bring a drink in their lunchbox, they may be charged for a milk or water. Please provide a drink or water bottle in the lunchbox. It is hard to for them to remember their water bottles from the classrooms and they get lost easily.

Payments can be made through the EZschoolpay.

Free and Reduced Lunches can be applied for at EZMealApp

Lunch money can be sent with the students in an envelope with the student's name and teacher

Every birthday is special! You are welcome to send nonfood items (erasers, pencils, bookmarks, etc.) to celebrate your child’s actual birthday, but we must reserve store bought food items for our monthly party.
