Dear Summerside Eagle Families,
This past week was filled with SO MUCH appreciation from our incredible PTO who provided so many opportunities to honor and celebrate the hard work that our AMAZING teachers and staff put forth every day to make a difference in your child's life. Thank you to all who participated with thoughtful cards and sentiments of gratitude and with all of the treats and special touches our PTO provided all week long. We believe it takes a village and as you look through pictures of our celebrations from this past week, we hope you are as proud of our Summerside community as we are every day, in every way!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Courtney & Ms. Lowe
P.S. Be sure to keep scrolling down as we will continue to add district and community opportunities that have tight timelines for application. Also, be sure to re-register your child ASAP - see below for a whole school and grade level incentive on Field Day!

Parent/Guardian Input Needed
Our district is implementing a whole-district transformational process called Leader in Me, which teaches 21st-century leadership and life skills to students and creates a culture of student empowerment based on the idea that every child can be a leader. Parent input is needed. Please complete the following survey to help us learn more about areas of strength and needed growth in our school (Leader in Me Measurable Results Assessment -Survey).
Please complete the survey using the link below. The survey is completely voluntary, but we do hope to get feedback from one member of every household. The survey takes about 10-12 minutes to complete and will ask questions about your child and about his or her experience in our school. If you have more than one child attending the school building, think about the oldest child's experiences as you answer questions.

Please complete survey by: 5/24/24.

WCEF Fun Run Flyer - 2024.pdfLeader in Me Surveys
Our district is implementing a whole-district transformational process called Leader in Me, which teaches 21st-century leadership and life skills to students and creates a culture of student empowerment based on the idea that every child can be a leader. Our school will be conducting the Leader in Me Measurable Results Assessment (surveys) to learn more about key areas of strength and needed growth in our school. In order for us to have a holistic picture of what is going on in our school, we are asking staff members, parents/guardians, and students in Grade 4 and up to complete surveys.
Students will be asked to complete the brief surveys during the week of May 13th. If you would like to review the survey questions, email Jen Taylor at taylor_jennifer@my.westcler.org. If you would like to opt your student out of taking the survey, complete this “Google Form.” We hope you can encourage your child to participate in this survey. Their voices matter.
