This school year, the Jr./Sr. High School has decided to mail report cards as a pilot activity to support parent communication for students identified as in need of additional support in hopes of increasing parent teacher conference involvement and participation for secondary school students. As always, please reach out with any questions you may have and know that we would love to see a record year for parent teacher interaction. Please feel free to bring your 7-12 student and siblings to parent teacher conferences on the evening of November 2nd. We will also have a parent review setup for individual senior graduation plans we maintain with Sheryl Roush and would love to see every senior parent available that evening. It is our goal to work our way down by grade level throughout the year at each conference we have so all graduation plans can be reviewed by families during conference evenings.
Thank you,

National School Bus Safety Week this Week, Oct 16 - 20.
Congratulations to all Eastern senior Fall sports athletes we had the opportunity to celebrate over the past week!
A couple excellent upcoming events!
Hello archery family! 👋
The end of the fall raffle is approaching fast. We appreciate everyone who has participated!
On November 3rd at 6 pm in the archery building, we will have our first parents meeting. As most of you know, we don't have seating for everyone so please bring a chair unless you would like to stand. At that time, we ask that all remaining raffle tickets be turned in. We will need ALL SOLD AND UNSOLD tickets to be returned. Also, ALL MONEY is due with the tickets.
We are also aware that some people may have not signed up for this season. You may also know of other parents interested in signing up their kids. This meeting will be our LAST sign-up of the season. The club dues are required at the time of sign-up and are $40 this year.
As always parent involvement is super important for club and archer success. So if you are able we would love to have a full house for this parents' meeting. All by-laws, rules, practice times, and available tournament information will be given at this meeting. Parent meetings help ensure that parents and coaches have an open dialog and help everyone stay on the same page.
We hope to see everyone there! Have your questions/concerns ready! With parents and coaches on the same page with amazing communication, our Eagles are sure to soar!!! 🦅🎯🏹
We would like to congratulate our 7th and 8th grade volleyball teams on their undefeated seasons this year! Both 7th grade and 8th grade teams finished the regular season with a 20-0 record! Congratulations Girls!
