Mrs. Bearden's Weekly Update

November 3, 2025
 

Dear Eagle Canyon Families,

Did you remember to turn your clocks back an hour for Daylight Saving Time? If not, be sure to update your clocks to ensure your child gets to school on time tomorrow.

RED RIBBON WEEK
Thank you to all the students who participated in the Red Ribbon Week activities. Between the spirit days, the BMX assembly, and the Literature Day parade, our students were reminded daily of the importance of making good decisions when it comes to staying away from drugs and vapes.

THINKNLOCAL FUNDRAISER
Thank you to the families who participated in the ThinknLocal fundraiser. We met our goal and raised $502.80.

PARENT VOLUNTEERS
Eagle Canyon thrives because of our parent volunteers. To ensure that everyone understands the expectations for volunteering on campus or on a field trip, Eagle Canyon PBIS Tier 1 has developed a Parent Volunteer Agreement. Beginning October 1, we require all volunteers to complete the form as a prerequisite for volunteering. The electronic form is linked below. Volunteers must only complete it once for the 2025-26 school year. Google will email you a copy of your response. Thank you to the 100 volunteers who have completed the Google Form.

Thank you for all your support,
Mrs. Bearden

IMPORTANT REMINDERS

SCHOOL HOLIDAYS
In November, there are several holidays, including Veterans' Day and Thanksgiving. Be sure to check our school calendar to see which days we do not have school.

VETERANS' DAY RALLY
On Wednesday, November 12, 2025, at 8:00 a.m., Eagle Canyon will continue its annual tradition of recognizing our local veterans. If you or a family member has served or is currently serving in one of the armed forces, we would love you to participate in our rally. It is important for our students to understand the sacrifices you have made or make on a regular basis for us.

ATTEND TODAY, ACHIEVE TOMORROW

Eagle Canyon's student attendance will be a focus this year. Regular attendance in school leads to better academic performance for children when they become adults.

Please make illness the only reason for an absence. When your child misses school, they miss out on essential instruction, and it takes time for them to catch up. Parents of students at risk of Chronic Absenteeism will be required to meet with Mrs. Bearden or Mrs. Madkin to sign an agreement aimed at improving overall attendance.

We surpassed our district attendance goal by .91%. 😎 We met the attendance goal Monday through Thursday. Please continue to make attendance a priority to ensure your child is prepared for the next grade and beyond.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

happy birthday

BIRTHDAY GREETINGS ON THE MARQUEE

Another way you can support our PTA and celebrate your child's birthday is to purchase a birthday greeting for $25 that will be displayed on your child's birthday and run for one week. If interested, please stop by the office, complete the request, and submit the payment. Please be sure to plan. We need two weeks' notice before the birthday to ensure everything is timed correctly.

The kids get so excited seeing their birthday highlighted on the marquee. Out of safety, we will never publish your child's last name, only the initial.

JOIN THE PTA!

Our amazing Eagle Canyon PTA Board has a year of fun planned for our community. Because of your support, they can continue to provide financial support for field trips, culminating activities, grade-level performances, and schoolwide activities. Use the button below to access the link to join.

November character trait

NOVEMBER CHARACTER TRAIT

Each month, Eagle Canyon will focus on teaching students about a character trait. We will share it during our Monday Morning Rallies, and teachers will reinforce it by recognizing one student each month for a monthly award.

SUPPORT EAGLE CANYON

A popular fundraising opportunity all families can support is Box Tops. Download the Box Top app on your phone. You must scan your receipts on the Box Top app within 14 days of purchasing. The app will let you know if any purchased items qualify to earn 10 cents per product. If there are not any items, you will still have an opportunity to enter the sweepstakes to win 500 bonus Box Tops. Every receipt has the potential to earn our school money.

As of today, our school has earned $1,313.50 this year. Our goal is to earn $1,500. Be sure to select the grade level that you want to support. Shout out to First Grade! They have submitted the most Box Tops since July 1, 2025. Thank you for your support!
