EBA Family,

Absences - If your student(s) is absent (especially in grades 7-12). They are required to bring a note within two days of returning to school. If the student(s) do not bring a note they will be marked as an unexcused absence. This will have ramifications on exempting exams for those eligible. Please see the handbook for more information on our absence and tardy policy.

Chapel - Thursday our West Virginia Missions team shared their experiences from this past summer. Seeing and hearing about their experiences was a great opportunity for our students to see what it means to go out onto the mission field. Thanks to all of our students who went on the trip and shared with us yesterday!

 

Chicken-Que Tickets - ALL money, unsold tickets, and volunteer sheets need to be returned to the homeroom teacher by Today! 

 

Art Show - Please note the change to the date of the art show. It is now scheduled for October 15th prior to the home middle school and jr. pro football games. We are excited to support our art program and display what they have been doing this year. We look forward to seeing you there!

Friday Thought

As we navigate the school year, please be sure to take advantage of the opportunities that are offered throughout the year to volunteer and help make our community unique! It’s not always easy to get away from our jobs or we may work a long week and then the thought of volunteering in your free time seems like a lot, but spending time with other families in support of our school is a very important part of our culture and what we’ve been built on. It is only with the support of all of our stakeholders (students, families, alumni, local community) that schools like ours can really thrive. So, I would like to challenge each and every family to make sure they are taking some time this year to volunteer in some way to support our EBA community! 


Go Spartans!

EBA Family,

Chapel - This week we had a special guest, Pastor Kevin Bounds, from Morningside Baptist Church in Douglas, Georgia. Pastor Kevin and I are friends from my time spent in Douglas and he shared with us about his recent bikepacking mission trip in Mongolia. Thank you Pastor Kevin for making the trip to Waynesboro to share your experience. 


Concession Stand Volunteers - Be sure to check in with your student’s teachers to see if there are any available opportunities to volunteer to work our concession stands throughout the year. This is a great way to meet your student’s classmates and families, to network, to fellowship, and to provide a service that our school needs.

Friday Thought

Well, progress report time is here, and we are excited to see where our students are and work hard to help students continue to achieve at a high level or figure out methods to help them achieve at a higher level than they currently are. If you have any questions or concerns about curriculum, grades, or behavior please reach out to the teacher first with your questions or concerns. After you have done that and if you still have questions, please feel free to reach out to me and I will do my best to help ease your mind or answer any questions. We do our absolute best to help produce responsible young people and when we work together as a team that goal is most certainly achievable. 

 

I hope to see everyone at tonight’s first home football game as we cheer on our Spartan against Westminster.


Go Spartans!
