"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit." - Aristotle
A Note From Mr. Witherspoon:
I want to start off by sending out a great big "Thank you" to all of you (and your families) that have served or are serving in any of our armed forces for our great country. I am astonished to hear the humility in a veteran's voice when I thank them for their service; the most common response is, "it was my pleasure". The men and women that have chosen this path in life are truly special as they have made the conscious decision to place their country first. Once again, on behalf of our entire Eagle community, I want to say "Thank you" for all you do and have done!
There are many fun activities that are happening around Cleveland in the upcoming weeks and they will be down below. I have heard how wonderful these events are and I am excited to be a part of it!
Thank you again for your partnership and all you do in support of each of our learners!
Please, as always, give me a call or email if you have any questions/concerns/compliments regarding Cleveland!!!!
Stay Awesome and Keep SOARing Eagles!!!!

Community Connections
Thank you to Mile City Church (and several of Eagle Families) for spending time making Cleveland beautiful! They weeded and sread out almost 20 yard of mulch!!!     I had the pleasure of meeting several members of the Bob's Discount Furniture Store (next to Home Depot on Middlebelt) last week as they presented Cleveland with a check for $2500!!! The store manager, Fred Rumberger, gave me the background of the company and let me know that this random act of kindness is a way that their company likes to give back to the communities that have welcomed them in. I want to thank Bob's furniture, on behalf of the entire Cleveland Community, for their generosity and thoughtfulness!!!! 
The last "Thank you" goes out to our wonderful PTA who have worked (and continue to work) so hard at planning so many wonderful event that have happened throughout the school year! These events are a huge reason why our Cleveland community is the best around!!!!!

"Don't worry that children never listen to you; worry that that are always watching you." - Robert Fulghum
A Note From Mr. Witherspoon:
April Showers have definitely held true and, hopefully, we will have plenty of May flowers as a result!!! Spring signifies, for many students, that summer will soon be here and then the summer activities are soon to follow. The excitement for such activities often cause students to lose focus on school expectations for the remainder of the school year. Please help them stay focused by continuing to talk to them about the different things that they are learning in school.
I will be sharing a section in the Eagle's Nest that includes different activities that are available to you and your family during the summer months...start that planning. Please let me know if you come across anything that you think would be good for other families to do as well. We are all in this together and, with the support of each other, we will help prevent summer learning loss. Lastly, we have noticed that students are staying after school to play on the play structures. Students need to be supervised by a parent/guardian during this time in efforts to maintain a safe dismissal. Students will not be permitted to stay after school, unless supervised, to play at Cleveland. Thanks for you understanding and support with this matter!
Thank you again for your partnership and all you do in support of each of our learners!
Please, as always, give me a call or email if you have any questions/concerns/compliments regarding Cleveland!!!!
Stay Awesome and Keep SOARing Eagles!!!!
