Lost and Found

Items lost in the main building will be located right outside the office. Students can come down BEFORE SCHOOL/HOMEROOM or DURING LUNCH. The gym lost and found will be in a container in the dining hall. Building 5/WINGS lost items will be in a container at the desk by the front entrance. All unclaimed items will be donated at the end of each month.

Drop and Pick Up

No students are to be dropped off or picked up at building 5. Any student reported will receive disciplinary action.

When arriving for AA pickup in the afternoons, please arrive @3:45 and stay in the right lane closest to the building ONLY.

If your student does not come out to carpool and you have looped around, please come in to the Dining Hall (back of the gym) to give them your student’s number and your student will meet you there.

Middle Academy Events

Please do not drop off students on campus in the morning before carpool. If you need to drop off earlier than 7:40, please utilize the morning WINGS service.

Middle School carpool in the afternoon does not begin until 3:15. If you arrive earlier you will be asked to go to the back of the line. Students are in class until their release time of 3:15.

Students, during carpool you are to be seated in your classroom watching the screen for your carpool number to come up. Students are not to be in the hallways, standing up within the classroom, but waiting for your number to be displayed. Parents are not to arrive before 3:20. Students are to only be dismissed by your teacher to head to carpool when you both see your number come up. Any students seen at carpool without permission or prior to release time will face disciplinary action. Thank you for following the rules that have been in place for your safety.

Middle Academy Sports

When athletes have away games please initial the roster located outside of the Middle School entrance. Do NOT enter the Middle School office unless checking out another student that is not playing sports.

When there is a home game, students need to be picked up during carpool and brought back to school for the game. Students may not linger after school.

Students are NOT to leave for sports while in transition to the next class. They may exit at the time of dismissal for that game day.

Middle School Basketball Tryouts

Tryouts for middle school boys’ and girls’ basketball will be held on Monday, November 3 and Tuesday, November 4 in the gym. Tryout times will be announced next week. All students must have a completed and up-to-date tryout packet and an up-to-date physical on file before the start of tryouts. These must be turned in to Coach Bowman prior to participating. If you are unable to schedule a physical with your primary care physician before tryouts, you may visit Ortho NC in Knightdale, which offers walk-in sports physicals.

Please contact Coach Bowman if you have any questions. (bbowman@eastwakeacademy.org)
