Welcome Back Eagles!
We hope everyone is enjoying their summer! With school starting soon, we wanted to start communicating more to prepare our families for the first day of school on August 12th, 2024.
We have some great news to share! Broward Public School is an ‘A’ rated School District and Eagle Ridge Elementary is an ‘A’ rated Broward County Public School!
Thank YOU for the hard work, dedication, commitment from the teachers, parents, community, and students! We are an ‘A’ rated school because of YOU!! A heartfelt thank you for this achievement and the difference you make!!
Our Theme for the 2024-2025 school year is Taking Learning to New Heights. This theme captures the importance of continuing to grow and learn in the upcoming school year.
As we start to begin the new school year, we would like to provide a few reminders for you.
- Please take a moment to read over the Parent Handbook as it has vital information to make this year a success.
- We are still in the process of placing students in classes. All class placements are tentative and subject to change.
- Every student will receive a new ID/Lunch card on the first day of school. It is important that the ID stays at school and the child wears the ID while on campus.
- Carpooling, walking, or riding bikes are strongly encouraged to reduce traffic at arrival and dismissal. Review dismissal procedures with your child and communicate the method of dismissal with your teacher at Meet and Greet on August 9th. Consistency is important, pick one method for dismissal and try to stick with it. Student drop off and pick up is ONLY to take place in the car loop and NEVER in our parking lot. Car riders are dismissed out the front gates for K-2 and side gates for 3-5. Eagle Ridge will provide car signs for all car riders at the beginning of the school year. Students names and grades should be posted in the car windows. To ensure safety and expedite the flow of traffic, parents are to remain in their cars and post your car sign on your rearview mirror.
- First day arrival - Parents will be able to walk their child into the campus to the classroom the first day only. After that, parents can drop off in car line and there will be staff to assist students who need help getting to class. Parking is limited on campus and we ask that you do not park in the parking lot if the space is designated for staff members. There is no parking in the car loop for parents to pick up or drop off. We know that the first week will be hectic, but following the procedures outlined above will help us get the arrival and dismissal line running smoothly with your help!
See you at the Meet and Greet August 9th!
