    Good Evening Eagle Families,

    Thank you for a terrific Back to School Night yesterday.  It was wonderful to see everyone.

    A few reminders:

    Please remember to use the student drop-off and pick up area in the morning and at dismissal.  We have received complaints from the nearby medical offices and neighborhoods that parents are parking in their areas to drop off and pick up children.  Please help us be good neighbors and use the car circle. 

    Recently you received a PeachJar flyer regarding the PSAT for 11th graders.  Please use this form to sign your child up for the in school PSAT (held on October 10th).  The test is free for 11th graders.  If you are an 11th grader who signs up for the test but does not take the test you will be charged for the test.  This is the test to qualify for National Merit Scholarships.  If you need another copy of the form for 11th graders, please click here  11th Grade PSAT Information

    Our 9th and 10th grade students are automatically signed up for the PSAT and will also take the test free of charge. 

    Please remember to monitor your child's academic progress on your FOCUS account.  We want every student to take full advantage of all East Lake has to offer including field trips, homecoming activities, athletics and other extracurricular activities.  Students who do not maintain passing grades may be restricted from some activities.  If your child needs extra support, please have them see their counselor for information on tutoring opportunities.

    Lastly, as you might be aware, we are at full student capacity and have received some additional teaching support.  While this is excellent news, it does mean we will have to adjust some students’ schedules as we add new teachers.  Proceeding with this endeavor, we will work with students to minimally disrupt their current schedules.  Thank you for your patience as we balance classes.

     

    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.
