Directions to East Lake High School

10/26/2020

Good Afternoon Eagle Families,

Tomorrow begins the new grading period for our students and since some students have changed their learning options, I wanted to send a few quick reminders to our families.

Bus riders – As we have new students returning to school and some students beginning online learning, there might be changes in your students’ pick up or drop off time. Please check FOCUS for any possible changes before tomorrow morning.

Parking Permits – We will begin distributing hang tags later this week. Please remind your students to watch for announcements.

School Assigned Laptop Computers – If you have a laptop and are returning back to face to face instruction, please return the laptop to the front office.

As you know, students returning are required to wear masks. Students returning from MyPCS online will receive a package of five masks in their first period class with other information to help them orientate back to school. For our new students we will have staff greeting our students assisting them to their new classes. Also here is a link to a virtual tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzQVa4rHbzM

Thank you, stay safe, and have a great evening
Carmela Haley, Principal
East Lake High School

Vision- 100% student success
Mission- The community of East Lake High School will develop productive and responsible students who are prepared for post-secondary education, the workforce and citizenship.
