Golden Eagle Award

6th Grade Parents,

Hopefully you receive the blue paper that was sent home a few weeks about about the new "Golden Eagle" award that the students can earn in sixth grade.  There is no limit to the number of students that can earn this award, they just have to meet four areas:

1.  Have A's and B's in their "Learning Habits" grade (following rules, being respectful, completing homework, etc.)

2.  Earned A's and B's in all academic areas (math, science, etc.)

3. Participate in on Eaglecrest event/activity during any of their years here (Reflections, Choir, Knowledge Bowl, Great American Award, Storytelling Festival, or Presidential Fitness)

4.  Write a 200 word essay about the school creed (what it means to them, how it makes them a better person, what they learn from it, etc.)

The first two will be signed off by your students teacher near the end of the year.  The last two are the responsibility of the student to complete before the end of the year.
