Good morning, Senior Academy!
Thursday, September 3
This is a reminder that tomorrow will be an early release day, and there is no school on Monday!
If you are a Senior athlete, you may be eligible for the EWA Booster Scholarship. If you're interested in applying, please complete this interest form. After completing the form, an EWA Booster board member will share the application with you. If you have any questions, please reach out to Crystal Dixon (cdixon@eastwakeacademy.org).
The lost and found is overflowing! Please check for missing items before the long weekend.
Students - unless you have a work from home pass or are scheduled late arrival or early release - you must sign in or out at the office if you leave- even if you are a driver.
**Mrs. Harris also needs an email from your parent if you will be signing yourself out. Her email address is aharris@eastwakeacademy.org
If you have a work from home pass, you do not need to sign in or out unless you are tardy to your next on-campus class.
Parents - when signing out your students at the end of the day, if you sign your child out before 2:30 pm, be aware that it will count as an unexcused absence for that class period (unless sick or with a doctor's note).

“Instead of looking at the past, I put myself ahead 20 years and try to look at what I need to do now in order to get there then.”
