East Wake Academy -

As you begin to plan for the holiday season, we ask that you consider being a part of our annual Giving Tree for EWA families. This is a K-12 event that will support families school wide. We want to make sure all of our students have a bright holiday and would love your support. In addition to purchasing items from our tree or purchasing stocking items, you are able to donate here so we can purchase items that do not get donated. We will be taking donations through MySchoolBucks from now until Tuesday, December 2, 2025.

Students in Mrs. Pace’s Class are hard at work on their “Week 6 Research Project”. Students each chose an animal to learn more about and are using PebbleGo to learn cool facts about their animal. Tomorrow, we will turn their facts into an informative writing piece and on Friday, they will present their findings to the class.

My Hot Lunchbox Update:
If you ordered from MHL last Wednesday, you may have heard that there was an order issue with the vendor (Pizza Hut). They were unable to print the lunch orders and just provided every student that ordered lunch with 2 slices of cheese pizza. MHL has sent an email to those parents about a credit. You may have received that email today, but it was in reference to last week.
Today's lunch delivery from Pizza Hut is on schedule and will be delivered as ordered. Sorry for the confusion!

"Annual Re-enrollment" for the 2026/2027 school year for CURRENT EWA students is OPEN.

Infinite Campus calls this Online Registration Update and this is for the following 2026/2027 school year and starts TODAY, November 10th and ends on November 21st at midnight.
Login to your Infinite Campus Parent Portal today and begin the Online Registration Update for your EWA Student! If you have any questions about Online Registration Update, contact Kim Campbell at kcampbell@eastwakeacademy.org

The holiday season is just around the corner! As you make your plans, we invite you to join us in supporting our annual Giving Tree for EWA families. Together, we can make the season brighter for every student. Thank you for your kindness and generosity!

Throughout the month of October, High School staff and students had the opportunity to nominate a student/peer who was observed displaying kindness throughout the school. We had many students nominated, and of those nominated, one student from each grade was chosen to receive a sweet treat. Congratulations to Ayden Glover, Kaydence Pearce, Evan Bloniarczyk, Chase Jordan! Special thank you to the @EWA Eagle Foundation who sponsored the treats for our students! Additionally, so happy to see these students showing their school spirit, and participating in High School spirit week this week!

Mrs. Dixon’s 8th grade science class created posters based on their research of various elements on the Periodic Table.

#HappyNationalSTEAMday! 🔬🧪

It’s been a week full of celebration! After Mrs. Lanier honored the Mentors last week, they surprised her yesterday with a birthday celebration complete with cake, flowers and snacks.https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/east_wake_academy_ar/live_feed_image/image/21049762/large_IMG_1776__1_.jpeg

I hope you had a chance to appreciate the vibrant fall colors as you arrived on campus today. Inside our classrooms, the energy is just as vibrant—students are deeply engaged in learning, exploring, and sharing new ideas.

Our Middle School students showed their school spirit all week long! From creative outfits to friendly competitions, Spirit Week was a huge success.

K4 Book Character Day was a hit! On October 31, our Elementary Staff teamed up in creative costumes. The students couldn’t stop smiling seeing their teachers dressed up.

Warning: images look real, but are NOT!
Mrs. Zigler's HS forensics students created "Zombie Wounds" on their arms and/or legs from a trace evidence lab.

You're never too old for field trip fun! Third Grade staff enjoying their field trip to Marbles/IMAX and looking awesome in their team shirts.

Tomorrow is K-11 Absentee/Makeup Pictures AND Senior Tux & Drape Absentee/Makeup Pictures. Any student that was absent on the original picture days or wants a retake is allowed to be photographed! If Middle School students are dress up for Spirit Week they must bring an EWA polo to be photographed in!
This is the last chance for students to be photographed for the yearbook.

We are excited to announce our first group of K-4 character trait winners! These students were chosen for consistently displaying respect toward others. Congratulations!

Happy National Mentoring Day to EWA's Mentors!
