| Dear Parents
Education at Eastway Elementary is
designed to meet the needs of each individual student. The staff of Eastway
believes that all children can learn and strives to educate the whole child
by providing a caring environment, setting high standards, and utilizing
a varied curriculum to create a desire for lifelong learning.
Each student will gain from school
according to the effort he/she applies. To increase the degree of educational
success, it is very important that teachers, parents and administrators
communicate openly and frequently concerning the progress of students.
