Happenings


“I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.”
Mother Teresa

The 2nd Annual Gala for the Pillars was on Saturday evening.  Seeing so many parents and staff there to support the school and build community truly lifted my heart.  The dedication of parents and staff to making an already great school an even better place for the students of Eagle Ridge Academy is really admirable.  It was a wonderful evening with great conversation and connections.  The fact that we were also able to raise funds to expand and enhance the science program was a great benefit.  I want to give a huge thank you to the PTO and everyone involved in planning and organizing the evening.  It took many hands and many hours to make it such a success.  I also want to thank the teachers and staff members who donated items and helped to create baskets for the silent auction.  I am already looking forward to next year’s event and hope you are too!

Please note that students will no longer be given warnings for throwing snow or ice at recess.  They have had enough time and enough warnings to understand the expectation.  Behavior fix-its will be sent home with students who choose to throw snow or ice at recess.  Please talk to your student if one comes home about the importance of this rule for the safety of all students.

Please make sure you sign up for your spring conference using the online scheduling process.  The link and information on conference scheduling is in Tuesday’s Eagle Eye Newsletter.

Next week is a short week for students.  There is a professional development day for teachers on Wednesday, March 6th and parent/teacher conferences are on Thursday, March 7th and Friday, March 8th.  There is TEL available for students on all three of those days.  

Have a wonderful week!
Mrs. Baier
