Mrs. Bearden's Weekly Update

August 18, 2025
 

Dear Eagle Canyon Families,

Thank you to all the families who participated in the Kona Ice Fundraiser on Wednesday. It was fun to share a refreshing treat with the kids after school.

Our second week of traffic was much better! Thank you for working together to ensure our kids arrive at school and get home safely. Please remember to have your students ready to depart the car before you get to the drop-off area. We are receiving reports of parents still getting out of their car or students finishing their breakfast before exiting the car. Avoiding these delays will help all our students get into their classrooms on time.

Back to School Night is on Wednesday. It is an important night for you to learn more about your child's classroom. We hope you will be able to join us. There is more detailed information in the Important Reminders section below.

Thank you for all your support,
Mrs. Bearden

IMPORTANT REMINDERS

BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT
On Wednesday, August 20, 2025, the teachers look forward to sharing important information regarding their classrooms.
  • Before the classroom visits, please join Mrs. Madkin and me at 4:30 PM in the MPR for our annual Title 1 meeting.
  • At 5:00 PM, the PTA will host its mandatory meeting.
  • Classroom visits will occur at 5:30 and 6:00 PM.
We hope you will be able to attend!

SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR
The Scholastic Book Fair is coming to Eagle Canyon! Students will have two opportunities to visit the book fair. The best way for students to shop is with an e-wallet. This way, they do not lose money before or after visiting the book fair. I will share more information as soon as I receive it.

GET AIR
Our 3rd annual Get Air event is on August 28. The flyers went home on Wednesday, and additional copies are in the front office. This event is limited to the first 350 participants, and Get Air will only be open for our private event.

As a reminder, the Eagle Canyon PTA is sponsoring the students. Be sure to turn in your order form and funds to pay for the adults. All students must have an adult with them in attendance.

ATTEND TODAY, ACHIEVE TOMORROW

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

Please make illness the only reason for an absence. When your child misses school, they miss out on necessary instruction, and it takes a while for them to get caught up. Parents of students at risk of Chronic Absenteeism will have to meet with Mrs. Bearden or Mrs. Madkin to sign an agreement to improve overall attendance.

We surpassed our district attendance goal by 1.23%. 😀 Thank you for getting students to school. We met the goal every day!

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.

curiosity - August character trait

AUGUST 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 $88.00 this year. Our goal is to earn $1,000. Please return the coupons to the school office if you also get them. Be sure to select the grade level that you want to support. Thank you in advance for your support!
