Dear Eastview Families and Friends,
Thank you to all of our teachers, staff, students, and parents for making our September a great first month of school! This month, we focused heavily on building relationships with students. We know how important it is for students to feel safe, supported, and cared for at school in order for them to grow as learners. I hope that your students have shared some of the fun activities that they have done in their classrooms this month. Additionally, we have been working on our SOAR expectations and routines with students. Each morning, we have devoted morning meeting time to discussing and modeling Eastview expectations with our students. We are proud of the progress that our students have shown in only a few weeks. Lastly, students have been busy both in and out of our classrooms. In our classrooms, students have been working on academics in the areas of math, ELA, science, and social studies. Outside of the classroom, we have many students participating in our Lighted School House activities.
As always, please feel free to reach out to us with any questions. We thank you for your continued support and being a part of our Eastview community.
Wishing you a wonderful fall season,
Mrs. Erin Zigler
Principal

Health Updates and COVID-19 Procedures
At this time, Lake Geneva School District has a mask-optional policy for students and staff. If you would like your child to wear a mask at school, please send your child with 1-2 masks to have available for daily use. We would also encourage parents to have discussions with their child about family expectations for mask use at school. Parents, please feel free to reach out to homeroom teachers to discuss your wishes with your child and mask use at school. As always, we will do our best to support your choices and decisions for your family.
As a proactive measure to address the fact that some students may have masks and some students may not, we have incorporated targeted discussions into our morning meeting times as well as our character lessons. These types of conversations fit naturally into our discussions about respecting differences and noting that not all students are the same. Some students may wear glasses, some students may have braces, and some students may wear a mask. We will be proactive in our efforts to make sure all students feel comfortable at school.
As always, if your child is not feeling well, please keep him/her home and call the school to report your child’s symptoms. We ask that families continue to monitor your child’s health daily with routine morning health checks in your home. Thank you for your continued support in this area.

Dear Lake Geneva Schools Families,
Lake Geneva Food Service is participating in the United State Department of Agriculture (USDA) Seamless Summer Option (SSO) for the entirety of the 2021-22 school year. This means that our schools provide free meals to all students! This program provides additional support and flexibility for our district to continue serving meals to children while maintaining safety measures and managing the impacts of the COVI D-19 pandemic.
Included in the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are nationwide supply chain and product availability shortages. Disruptions are due to a lack of availability of raw ingredients and labor to produce, unload, and transfer food products. Some food and/or beverage products normally provided to students may not be available or arrive as scheduled. Due to unforeseen circumstances, last-minute menu changes and product substitutions may occur. Be assured meals will remain balanced, healthy, and plentiful. We ask for patience and understanding as we do our best to meet the needs of your children.
Sincerely,
Jaclyn Sanders
Food Service Coordinator
