Good morning EWA families.
An update on the situation from yesterday.
Last night ZPD confirmed the possible threat to EWA was NOT credible, with the possibility some key details were exaggerated as the story spread. We are grateful to the ZPD for their fast intervention in this matter. Out of an abundance of caution, we have asked ZPD to be on campus today and we will continue to go through our safety protocols. We ask our families to proceed as normal through carpool, as any disruption to the process will cause confusion and increase the chance of an accident.
Thank you for your continued support of EWA and we look forward to a joyous holiday break.
Fourth grade started off our holiday week with a candy cane experiment and several stem activities! They built with gum drops and created a jingle bell maze!
Last Friday 7th Graders worked on Science and math standards while building teamwork skills. We made 3D and 2D ornaments, read to elementary students, made holiday cards for the elderly at a local assisted living center, made paper circuit pictures that light up, and painted rocks for our community rock garden. The students did such a great job in all of these activities.
Good evening EWA families.
Today at the end of the school day we received information about a possible threat to EWA. We activated our crisis plan and have been working with ZPD to determine if the threat is credible. While ZPD continues to investigate, at this time the threat has NOT been deemed credible. Out of an abundance of caution, we have asked ZPD to join us on campus tomorrow while we continue to implement our security and safety protocols. If you have any information you feel is important regarding this matter, please send it directly to the ZPD and my email at apirrello@eastwakeacademy.org.

First graders in Ms. Pridgen's class created number filled Cornucopias! Each student was given a number and they had to recreate the number using 10’s and 1’s that were on different foods. The students filled their cornucopia with pumpkin and corn 10’s and peas that represented 1’s!
This morning in K-4 our kindness character trait winners were recognized. Congratulations to all of these students! We are so proud of them for demonstrating how “we are kind to others!”
First Grade wrapped up their Economics Unit by creating and working a Pizza Restaurant.
