Good afternoon Falcon Families! Another great week is complete at East River. This past week and continuing forward, we are putting an increased emphasis on being on time to class. Students have 5 minutes in between classes to transition to their next class. Five minutes is enough time to transition from anywhere on campus, as I have walked the entire campus myself many times. Students are encouraged to socialize while walking to class. Music signals the final minute before the tardy bell rings, so students know to start walking faster if needed to make it on time. Tardy sweeps will be conducted daily and students will be given lunch detention or and/or alternative class depending on the number of previous tardies. Students have received multiple warnings and daily reminders. Please remind your student as well. Thank you for your support. Students in class are students that are learning!

This year we are coordinating the Thanksgiving Food Drive a little differently. We are encouraging families in need to sign up using the Google form attached: https://forms.gle/W3ChfZWm52wVW5G37

This Google form will close on November 9th to ensure that we have enough time to gather the nonperishables for each basket. The students on campus and organizations will be working together to donate nonperishables for the drive. 

 

If you are interested in donating nonperishable items or gift cards for families in need, please reach out to Ms. Lara for more information (Deziree.Lara@ocps.net). 

 

All information that is collected will remain confidential. If you know a student or faculty member in need this holiday season, please encourage them to fill out the form.

Consider supporting our Fusion Dance team! 

Our SOAR store for positive student behaviors opens this week! Please consider donating to help us reward our students. Ask you student how many positive SOAR points they have.
