What a busy first week in music class! Turning names into songs, stories into compositions, and students into musicians! K4 students are just getting started! 🎵🎶










Thank you for making this the BEST first week of school ever! Yellow tag parents are learning the new drop off/pick up procedures, our staff have worked hard in 100+ degree heat in the afternoons and Kindergarten staggered entry went great!
Just a reminder that Monday may be a little rough since all of Kindergarten will be on campus for the first time.

EWA is looking for awesome teachers to join our team!


We’re excited to tell you that our school is using a cool tool to help
make the back-to-school supply list chore easier for our teachers and parents—
TeacherLists. It’s a one stop site where you can always find the most up to date
supply lists and teacher wish lists for our school.
To instantly access our lists, simply click on the “School Supply List” link on our
school’s website, https://www.eastwakeacademy.org/page/teacher-supply-lists. This will take you directly to
our school’s page on TeacherLists. Or, you can go directly to
www.teacherLists.com and type in our school’s zip code (27597) to find our supply lists.
Your lists are available 24/7 from any device—even on your smart phone while
you’re out at the store (no more worrying about lost lists!). You can even
“follow” your teacher’s lists to be instantly updated if it changes.
We hope this new tool helps to make the back-to-school process easier and
smoother for everyone!
