Mrs. Bearden's Weekly Update

November 10, 2025
 

Dear Eagle Canyon Families,

I hope you are enjoying your extended weekend. As a reminder, school is closed for the Veterans' Day holiday on Monday and Tuesday this year. On Monday, the U.S. Marine Corps celebrates its 250th birthday. On Tuesday, we honor all of our veterans. On Wednesday, Eagle Canyon will continue to honor veterans with our annual Veterans' Day Rally. We hope we get a record number of veterans this year to honor.

EXCITING NEWS
The Eagle Canyon PTA is excited to offer another memorable experience for our Golden Eagles. On Tuesday, December 16, 2025, we will have the opportunity to walk to Harkins Theater to watch Zootopia 2. Since Zootopia 2 is rated PG, we require a signed parent permission slip for your child to participate. Additionally, to ensure we arrive safely at the movie theater and return to campus, we need parent volunteers. If you are able to participate, we are seeking four parents from the primary grades and two from the elementary grades to help chaperone. The PTA is thrilled to offer this field trip to our students.

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 have no 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 essential for our students to understand the sacrifices you make or have made on a regular basis for us.

SIXTH GRADE PARENTS
If your child attends Eagle Canyon on a transfer and you wish for your child to attend Canyon Hills in 7th grade, you must submit a new transfer for junior high. The window is currently open. You can contact Student Support should you have any questions.

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 .66%. 😎 We met the attendance goal from Tuesday through Friday. Please continue to make attendance a priority to ensure your child is prepared for the next grade and beyond.

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.

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 $1,323.40 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!
