Mason Favro Wins 

Eastvalley’s Spelling Bee! 

Eastvalley’s annual spelling bee 

was held on Friday, January 15th. 

It was stiff competition, with three 

students from each of our fourth 

and fifth grade classrooms being 

selected (after individual classroom 

competitions) to compete. In the 

end, it was Mason Favro, a fourth 

grader, who came out on top. 

To win the bee, Mason had to 

correctly spell the word “inauguration”, and a final word, “gravitational”. 

It was a great competition right down to the end, with Courtnie 

Richardson, a fifth grader, coming in second. 

Mason Favro and Courtnie Richardson 

Congratulations, Mason and Courtnie, for being top-notch spellers!

A Letter From Our Principal 

Page 

Dear Parents, 


The school year is moving along quickly! The teachers and students are 

working hard to ensure that all Georgia Performance Standards are 

mastered. Great instruction is going on in all Eastvalley classrooms to 

engage students in performance based lessons. No longer is it good 

enough to use rote memory, but rather the phrase “show what you know” 

comes in handy. Students are expected to know, understand, do and 

communicate what they are learning. 

One snapshot of how students will show mastery of grade level standards 

is the Criterion Referenced Competency Test, or CRCT. Those tests will 

Karen Wacker, Principal be given beginning on April 14 and ending on April 23. We need ALL 

students (1st-5th) to be ON TIME and present in school on those days! 

Please do not make dental or doctor’s appointments on any of those days. If you child is sick or has a fever, of course 

you will need to keep them home. Thanks for looking at your calendars and marking those days as critical school days. 

Eastvalley will celebrate Staff Appreciation Week March 8-12. You should have recently received a PTA flyer asking for 

a family donation. When we celebrate the staff, we celebrate everyone! Teachers, bus drivers, parapros, office staff, 

custodians, lunchroom staff and administration are celebrated for their efforts in making Eastvalley the wonderful school 

that it is! Here are a couple of ideas for you to celebrate with us: 

1. Put a sign in your neighborhood thanking the bus driver for keeping your children safe. They will love 

seeing it while driving on their route. 

2. Have your child make a card for their teacher (and parapro if they have one) saying thank you for making 

learning fun. 

3. Send a note to Food Dude and his staff for preparing delicious breakfasts and lunches. 

4. Make a sign for the custodians that keep our school clean and safe. 

5. Send notes to the office staff saying how much you appreciate their service. 

6. Create a card for Nurse Ashley that she can display in the clinic. 

I know each of you will find a way to celebrate the staff at Eastvalley and it will be all the thanks everyone needs. We 

have very special families who are great at giving thanks! 

Mrs. Moot Receives Science Award 

We have some great news to share with all of our parents, staff and 

students! Mrs. Lindy Moot, a 2nd grade teacher at Eastvalley, was 

named the Georgia Elementary Science Teacher of the Year by the 

Georgia Science Teachers Association! Wow!! What a great award 

for a great teacher and for the entire school of Eastvalley. We are 

fortunate to have some of the greatest teachers around and it’s nice 

when someone else recognizes it also. 

Karen Wacker

Mr.s Lindy Moot

A Spectacular International Night 

The Eastvalley PTA hosted another fabulous International Night celebration on Friday, 

January 22nd. Fifteen countries were represented with wonderful displays of art, 

culture, and food. Great entertainment was also presented this year. 

Special thanks to: Kozue Cunningham (Hugh and Shun’s mom) for bringing a troupe 

of Japanese dancers (including herself), Cristina Clinton for bringing in flamenco 

instructor Rina Menosky, and the Jain, Lakshmikamtham, Bose, Joshi, and other families 

for working together to choreograph dancing from India and a musical presentation. 

We’d also like to thank our Partners in Education for participating in the event: The UPS 

Store, Bruster’s, and Chick-Fil-A Eastlake, as well as Tiger Tae Kwon Do Academy and 

Marietta Martial Arts -- both of which did fantastic martial arts demonstrations! 

Thank you to Kid Chess for running several chess games at once and to Michelle 

Jokay, Turin Mamoun and Jennifer Perez for helping with set-up and clean-up. 

And of course, a big thanks to our chairperson, Alanne Orjoux, for organizing such a 

wonderful event.

Currently, there is a special need for a treasurer. If you 

are interested please e-mail Starlet Riviere: shriviere@

support the students and staff of ECMS by raising funds

Eastvalley Foundation Update, February 2010 

Foundation Project Purchases 

Thanks to your support, the Foundation has been able to fund the following projects: 

• Contribute over $7000 to classroom supplies 

• Purchase smart response systems for our smart boards 

• Donate over 400 feet of CAT5 cable to enable teachers to use their laptops 

in the cottages. 

• Upgrade the younger playground with new fencing and mulch 

• Buy 19 brand new listening centers for kindergarten through 2nd grades 

• Provide 35 new headset/microphone combinations for the classroom computers 

Upcoming Foundation Projects The Foundation is raising money to purchase a new technology for our 

teachers called a document camera. Rather than using transparencies, it allows teachers to instantly project a student’s 

work, a book, or any other image that they want to show the class in color. The teachers find this tool very useful in the 

class and the Foundation plans to buy 6 document cameras, one for each grade level this spring. The device was on 

display at the last PTA meeting. We are also working to purchase at least 25 new laptops for our current laptop cart. 

Look for more information to come regarding these projects and help us by supporting our new fundraising campaign, 

Eastvalley Counts on Change. 

Eastvalley Counts on Change Campaign A new fundraising campaign has been established to fund our 

remaining projects for the school year. Every weekend we will ask you to empty your pockets, your pocketbooks, your 

cars and your couch cushions and collect your spare change in a little baggie that will be provided to each Eastvalley 

student. So, send in your baggies every Monday morning and know that a little change can do a lot of good. Of course, 

we will accept paper money and checks as well! Donations to the Foundation are tax-deductible. 

Chick-Fil-A Calendars 2010 Chick-Fil-A Calendars are still on sale for $6! Complete the order 

form and make your checks payable to Eastvalley Foundation. Extra forms are available by the front 

office. Support Eastvalley and Eat More Chicken! 

Brick Orders ATTENTION ALL 5th Grade Parents! Don’t forget to order a commemorative brick for your future 

middle-schooler! Order an engraved brick for your student’s graduation gift. Your child’s brick will be placed along the 

front walkway for everyone to see! Email a Foundation member or visit the Foundation website for forms and more 

information. The last day to place your brick order(s) is Friday, April 2nd.

Eastvalley Elementary School Talent Showcase 2010 

Friday, May 14th at 6:30 PM 

Eastvalley Elementary School Cafeteria 

$4 for adults and $3 for Students & Senior Citizens over 65 

Tickets will be sold at the door. 

REQUIREMENTS FOR PARTICIPATION (what I need to do to get in): 

1. Reserve a time on the sheet outside the music room door and attend the audition on either April 12th or 14th 

after school. Try-outs are limited to the first 24 acts to sign up. You must be picked up by 3:45 PM after your 

try-out and after rehearsals or you will be sent to the After School Program (ASP) and charged accordingly. 

(Your child must be registered for ASP and have paid the $10 registration fee if you plan to use this service). 

2. Perform your WHOLE ACT (3-4 minutes maximum) in costume at the audition. You will have two minutes 

to set up/ take down your materials. If using a soundtrack/music, you must use it in the audition. 

3. Perform your act in costume at both rehearsals: May 10th and 12th (Monday and Wednesday) from 2:15— 

3:30. Attendance at both rehearsals is required. 

4. If using a soundtrack to sing/ perform with, it must not have the solo vocal/ instrument on it (no lip syncing 

or singing along with the voice on the recording). IE: you must use a Karaoke style recording without the solo 

voice part. You must use it at the audition. 

5. The performance must be in good taste, have audience appeal, and show a genuine talent (ex: just standing 

on stage and reading the phone book is not appropriate). The faculty sponsors will determine audience appeal 

and appropriateness. 

6. Students must provide their own costumes, recordings and equipment for the audition and performance. 

THE SCHOOL WILL ONLY FURNISH A CD PLAYER, A PIANO, AND THREE STAND MICROPHONES 

ON THE STAGE. 

7. Only 20 or fewer “featured acts” will be selected to perform their act in the talent showcase. Other students 

who try out but are not selected as a “featured act” may participate in the large-group finale. 

8. Only current Eastvalley students (K-5) are eligible to participate—parents may assist but no other students 

from other schools. 

9. The sponsors may add other rules or restrictions as deemed necessary.

Carta da Nossa Diretora 

Page 11 

Prezados Pais, 

O ano escolar esta passando rápido! Estudantes e professores estão trabalhando consistentemente para que o critério 

de desempenho em ensino da Geórgia seja alcançado. Um ensino maravilhoso esta ocorrendo em todas as salas de 

aula da Eastvalley para que os alunos participem da aplicação das lições. Saber decorado a matéria, Já não é suficiente, 

usamos a fraze “mostre-me o que você sabe.” A espectativa é que o estudante saiba, entenda e comunique o 

que esta aprendendo. 

Uma amostra de como os estudantes estão em nível do padrão de cada série, é a prova CRCT(Prova de Competencia 

Baseada em Critério). Esta prova será administrada nos dias 14 de Abril e termina em 23 de Abril. Pedimos que 

todos os estudantes(1 – 5 série) estejam na escola A TEMPO e não faltem aula nestes dias! Por favor não marque 

dentista ou consulta médica para estes dias. Se sua craiança esta doente ou tem febre, deve ficar em casa. Obrigada 

por cooperar conosco e marcar estes dias importantes em seu calendário. 

Eastvalley celebrará a semana de apreciar os funcionários na semana de 8-12 de março. Você deve ter recebido 

recentemente um pamfleto pedindo doação. Quando celebramos a semana dos funcioários, celebramos todos! Professores, 

motoristas dos ônibus, ajudantes, o pessoal da secretaría, genitores, ajudantes da cafeteria e administradores. 

Todos devem ser apreciados pelo grande esforço que fazem para que a Eastvalley seja esta escola maravilhosa! 

Estas são algumas idé ias como vocês podem celebrar conosco: 

1. Coloque um sinal na entrado de sua subdivisão agradecendo ao motorista pela segurança das 

crianças. Eles vão gostar muito de ver o cartaz em sua rota diária. 

2. Peça para sua criança fazer um cartão para sua professora e ajudante(se existe uma na classe) 

agradecendo por fazer a aprendizagem divertida. 

3. Envie uma bilhete para o Food Dude da cafeteria e seus ajudantes agradecendo pela comida 

deliciosa que preparam. 

4. Faça um cartaz para os genitores que manten a escola limpa. 

5. Envie uma nota para a secretaria pelo trabalho maravilhopso que fazem. 

6. Crie um cartão especial para a emfermeira Ashley expor na parede de sua clínica. 

Sei que cada um de vocês encontrará uma maneira de celebrar os funcionários da Eastvalley. Temos em nossa escola 

famílias especiais que são maravilhosas e sabem como agradecer.
