What a great day for Eagle Heights 5th grader Sawyer Dawes, as he was chosen to be the 2026 National Children’s Miracle Network Champion! This is an incredible honor given to a small number of children nationwide who represent courage, resilience, and hope for children receiving medical care. Sawyer and his classmates in Mrs. Zuidema's class were suprised with a pizza party while Sawyer was given a medal from Children's Miracle Network representatives. Be on the lookout for Sawyer's face in Walmart, Costco, and several other stores. Check out KWQC TV6 tonight to see Sawyer's interview!

We are still working to get our student attendance back up to 95%. If your student is ill, please make sure you call in and as much as possible, send in an excusal from a medical provider.

Week 19

WHOA! Week 17?!?! That means we're nearly halfway through the year. WOW! We have a lot of fun planned this week. Please join us for holiday programs on Monday and Tuesday nights.

Monday:
5:30 TK & Kindergarten
6:30 2nd Grade
7:30 4th Grade

Tuesday:
5:30 1st Grade
6:30 3rd Grade

When the grade level programs conclude, students will be released to go back to their classrooms. We ask that audience members wait in their seats in the gym. You will be released to pick up your student when all students have made it to their rooms. This procedure helps keep all students safe and accounted for!

We are so excited for you to see how hard your students have worked! To ensure we have the best performances possible, we ask the following of our audience members:

Remain seated during performances. Please avoid standing in aisles or walking around while students are performing.

Silence phones and devices before the program starts.

No flash photography.

Save applause until the end of each song or performance.

Support all performers. Every child worked hard—please show encouragement to all students.

Exit quietly if needed.

There will still be days students go outdoors for recess - we need that fresh air! If your student needs outdoor clothing, please email Counselor Stephanie Boeding at stephanie.boeding@csdkq.org.
