Roster Party - July 31

Roster Party: A Back-to-School Bash

Come celebrate the start of the 2019-2020 school year with our annual Roster Party!

Class rosters will be posted at 4:30 PM in the main office and cafeteria windows. Drop by any time from 4:30 to 6:30 PM to meet your child's teacher(s). Connect & catch-up with other Eakin families. Stay and enjoy Hugh Babies and Kona Ice food trucks available for dinner and a treat.

Plus, this is a chance to purchase Eakin branded merchandise & clothing that can be worn any day during the year. New families can also take a brief school orientation tour at 6:00 PM.

The party will be out back on the playgrounds and in the cafeteria. Enter through the Main Office doors on 26th Avenue or park and walk over from Fannie Mae Dees Park (aka - Dragon Park) behind the school.

If you can't make the party, class rosters will be posted after the event in the Main Office windows until school starts.

See you there!
