Good afternoon EWA families.
As we were looking forward to the solar eclipse on Monday April 8th we realized the timing of the eclipse could have a negative impact on our students and staff (https://eclipse2024.org/eclipse-cities/city/30259.html). Looking directly at the sun during an eclipse can cause significant eye damage. Unfortunately, the timing of the eclipse is right in the middle of our carpool dismissal. As a result we are going to dismiss early on our normal early dismissal schedule.
Unlike our typical early dismissal days, WINGS will be available to families.
Thank you for your understanding.
Anthony Pirrello
It's a beautiful day at EWA! The trees are blooming and the staff are working hard to prepare for the 4th quarter. We are excited to see everyone back on campus tomorrow!
