EWA NEWS:

THIS Wednesday 10/26 is K-11 Uniform Picture Retake/Make-up Day. Any student that was absent on the original picture day (8/31) will need to have their picture taken on 10/26 in order for them to be included in the yearbook. If students/parents did not like their previous picture they can also choose to have them retaken. If they previously purchased pictures, they will need to bring them on 10/26 and return to the photographer.

**Guardians and Parents: This is for RETURNING STUDENTS ONLY. It is almost Re-enrollment time! This year's Re-enrollment for the 2023 - 2024 school year begins November 7th at 8:00 am and ends November 18th at 12 noon. Every student that is enrolled at EWA will need to complete this process. Please do not wait until the deadline to start the process. Every parent should already have a Parent Portal account set up in PowerSchool. This is the only way to get into the Re-enrollment System. Sibling(s) not attending EWA can apply in January (more information to come).  

If you do not have a parent account for PowerSchool (username and password), or if you can not access your account, please get in touch with Mrs. Campbell TODAY! The best way to contact her is through email at kcampbell@eastwakeacademy.org. Again, the deadline for Re-enrollment is November 18th at noon. THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS.  If you do not complete the re-enrollment by the deadline, you forfeit your students spot at EWA and will have to apply in January for the Lottery. If you know you will not be returning, please let Kim Campbell know (kcampbell@eastwakeacademy.org).
