A Letter From Our Principal<br />
Dear <strong>Eastvalley</strong> Family,<br />
Wow! Only 3 ½ weeks left of school this year. Remember the last day for<br />
students is Friday, May 21. We still have a lot of work to accomplish in<br />
these last few weeks and everyone is continuing to work hard to get it done.<br />
Our fifth graders are currently at Jekyll Island getting hands on instruction in<br />
our oceans and animal habitats. Having been on this trip in the past, I can<br />
tell you it is a once in a lifetime opportunity for our students. They are in<br />
classes from 8 in the morning until after dark. I’m sure they will have a lot to<br />
talk about when they return tomorrow night. I want to thank our current 5th<br />
grade parents for working so hard to raise funds to make it easier for<br />
everyone to afford the trip.<br />
Karen Wacker, Principal<br />
Relay for Life is May 7th at Jim Miller Park beginning with the survivor lap at 7:00 p.m. I invite all of you to come to<br />
the event and celebrate with us. Cancer survivors from our own <strong>Eastvalley</strong> staff will be walking and we’d love for<br />
everyone to be there to cheer them on! The luminary ceremony, lighting of candles for all those that have battled<br />
cancer, begins at 10:00 p.m. and is my personal favorite of the entire event. It is a time for us to celebrate and<br />
remember those friends and family who have been so courageous in their fight. Please come join us!! Email me if<br />
you would like any more information. Also, if you are a cancer survivor, please go to www.cobbrelay.org and register<br />
to join in the celebration!!<br />
Please consider running for <strong>School</strong> Council for next year. You will find the application in this edition of the <strong>Eagle</strong> <strong>Eyes</strong>.<br />
Please fill it out and return it by April 30 to the front office.<br />
Parents Needed for <strong>School</strong> Council<br />
Karen Wacker<br />
Principal<br />
An application for parents to submit to run for the <strong>Eastvalley</strong> <strong>School</strong> Council is located on page 11. Please give some<br />
consideration to this service to our school. We need 3 parents (2 of whom are also business people) to fill the<br />
vacancies for next year. Please fill out the application and return it by April 30 to the <strong>Eastvalley</strong> office. We will have<br />
elections in May. All parents (except those who only have 5th grade students) are eligible for election to <strong>School</strong><br />
Council. The <strong>School</strong> Council meets once every 9 weeks to discuss issues of concern to <strong>Eastvalley</strong>. Please call Ms.<br />
Wacker at 770-578-7214 if you have questions.<br />

Principal for the Day<br />
Kyle Dugan, a 3rd grader, spent Thursday, April 1, 2010 as<br />
Principal of <strong>Eastvalley</strong> <strong>Elementary</strong>. Kyle won the raffle<br />
drawing at the Friends and Family lunch and spent the day<br />
shadowing Ms. Wacker as she completed her daily duties.<br />
Kyle was on morning announcements, visited classrooms,<br />
sat in the administrative meeting for the week, checked<br />
emails, etc. Kyle said the day was a lot busier than he<br />
thought it would be. Kyle even said he might think about<br />
being a principal when he grows up! Kyle did a great job and<br />
handled everything that came his way very professionally.<br />

Caroline Singer, Tim Buchanan, Demilade<br />
Adeoye, Anthony Sprigle, Brady Phillips, Sydney<br />
Agans & Nicholas Aluisy<br />
Each team worked tirelessly to<br />
solve their long-term problem<br />
in the form of a skit, & spent<br />
countless hours practicing for<br />
the spontaneous segment of<br />
the competition. The<br />
Odyssey of the Mind teams<br />
OM’s Fourth-Grade “Discovered Treasures” began their practicing in<br />
Team: Chezhey Lu, Ben Goodly, Zavier September of the school year.<br />

Third Graders are Surprised to Receive Personal Dictionaries!<br />
The Rotary Club of Marietta and Southern Polytechnic State University have joined together to provide all<br />
<strong>Eastvalley</strong> third graders with their own dictionary. Our students were surprised with their dictionaries early one<br />
Thursday in March. The students were so excited to receive these personal dictionaries. They could be seen reading<br />
these books in the hallways, at lunch, and even at recess. Dictionary skills are an integral part of the education for<br />
third graders as students increase their vocabulary and explore new words. Many students have reported that they<br />
are using the dictionaries for their homework and<br />
more than once students have been seen using<br />
their dictionaries in the classroom to enhance<br />
their learning. Students and teachers would like<br />
to extend a big “THANK YOU” to the Rotary Club<br />
and Southern Poly Tech for helping students<br />
become excited about learning and giving them<br />
one more tool toward their success.<br />

The Total Points earned in March were 4,092. Our goal is definitely within sight! If everyone continues to try their best<br />

time record high of EVRC points earned!<br />
Spring Photo Contest<br />

time as a student at <strong>Eastvalley</strong>. When you accomplish this, please print off your EVRC student record and bring it to the<br />

Dedicate-A-Book<br />
The <strong>Eastvalley</strong> Media Staff would love to thank the follow<br />
students and their families for their generous donation to<br />
<strong>Eastvalley</strong>’s Dedicate-A-Book Program:<br />
Mason and Caden Mamoun<br />
Harrison Pyle<br />
Charlie Zimmerman<br />
Andrew Long<br />
By donating ten dollars, you may have a book dedicated<br />
in a student’s name, a family member, or in a friend’s<br />
name. It is a wonderful birthday gift or to honor a loved<br />
one. Your donation will be a lasting reminder of instilling<br />
the love of reading in children. Thank you so much!<br />
Spring Book Fair<br />
<strong>Eastvalley</strong>’s Spring Book Fair was a huge success!<br />
<strong>Eastvalley</strong>’s parents supported their children’s reading by<br />
purchasing books from the Book Fair which is the Media<br />
Center’s largest fund raiser. Even in a difficult economy,<br />
<strong>Eastvalley</strong> experienced record breaking sales for the<br />
Spring Book Fair of over $10,000.00. With the profits, the<br />
Media Center will purchase new books and Accelerated<br />
Reading tests for our students. The Media Staff is so appreciative<br />
of your support!<br />
Accelerated Reading Tests<br />
The Media Center staff would like to thank the <strong>Eastvalley</strong><br />
PTA for its generous donation of $1,200.00 to the Media<br />
Center to go towards technology. The Media Staff asked<br />
the PTA if it would be alright to spend the money on<br />
Accelerated Reading tests because no funding comes<br />
from the state or from the county to purchase Accelerated<br />
Music News<br />
Reading tests. Usually the money is earned from the Book<br />
Fair sales. With PTA approval, the Media Staff purchased<br />
almost $1,900.00 of Accelerated Reading Tests from the<br />
PTA gift and Book Fair sales. The Media Staff has been<br />
able to accomplish their goal of having every fiction book<br />
in the Media Center have an accompanying test. Now<br />
students are choosing a book because they want to read<br />
it, not because it has a test. Because more tests are<br />
available, it is also easier for students to earn points for<br />
<strong>Eastvalley</strong>’s EVRC Club. A huge thank you goes out to<br />
<strong>Eastvalley</strong>’s awesome PTA for once again investing in the<br />
education of our students! We appreciate you!<br />

Wow! Somente 3½ semanas de aula para o final do ano escolar. Lembren-se que o último dia de de aula é 21 de<br />

a noite. Aproveito para agradecer aos pais dos alunos das 5tas. Séries por se esforçarem em conseguir a verba para<br />
que esta viagem fosse possível.<br />

do programa favorito. Esta é a hora de celebrar e relembrar os amigos e familiares que tem sido tão corajosos nesta<br />
luta. Por favor venham e participem!! Escreva-me por E-mail se necessitam mais informações. Também, se você é um<br />
