Now we’re heading into Week 4 with a new week, a new focus, and the SAME ROAR!
This week, let’s keep pushing our Tigers to be:
💙 Respectful
💛 On Task
💙 Always Safe
💛 Responsible
And families, don’t forget one of the simplest ways you can help us at home: Ask your child, “What did you learn today?” Then give them a chance to teach YOU! ❤️
We’re building something GREAT at Eustis Heights, and we’re just getting started!
🔥 WEEK 4 — LET’S UNLEASH GREATNESS! 🔥
One Team. One Mission. One ROAR.

Tiger Families, we are off to a GREAT start at Eustis Heights Elementary! The first two weeks have been all about learning routines, building relationships, setting expectations, and finding our rhythm as ONE TEAM.
We’ve launched our House System, strengthened our arrival and dismissal routines, started Safety Patrol, worked on our ROAR expectations, and continued setting HIGH expectations for every Tiger. And we’re just getting started!
As we head into Week 3, it’s time to turn up the focus on ACADEMICS, GROWTH, RESPECT, RESPONSIBILITY, and GREATNESS!
Talk to your Tiger about their goals for this week—and don’t forget to ask them which HOUSE they belong to! ❤️💙💚🖤
NEW WEEK. NEW GOALS. SAME ROAR.
🔥 LET’S UNLEASH GREATNESS! 🔥
One Team. One Mission. One ROAR.
This is your Proud Principal and Mama Tiger, Dr. King, and I want to welcome everyone to the first day of what is going to be an amazing school year!
As we prepare for tomorrow, I encourage every family to visit the Eustis Heights Elementary Facebook page. We've posted several updated flyers with important information about arrival, dismissal, transportation, and other first-day procedures. Please take a few minutes this evening to review them so you know exactly what to expect tomorrow.
A few quick reminders:
School doors open at 8:00 a.m., so please do not arrive before that time for the safety and security reasons.
During the first two days of school, Pre-K and Kindergarten parents may walk their child to class to help with a smooth transition.
If your child is a walker, please make sure they are an official walker and are not dropped off at the walker gate from a vehicle.
Car riders should stay in one line, pull all the way forward, and have their car tag visible. We will load students from the passenger side only to help keep dismissal moving safely.
Please remember that there are no teacher conferences in the car line. If you need to speak with your child's teacher, we'll be happy to schedule a better time.
Finally, I want to ask for your patience during these first few days of school. As with any new school year, our arrival and dismissal lines may be a little longer than usual, and we may experience a few bumps along the way. Please know that our staff will be monitoring our procedures, making adjustments, and improving them each day. Our goal is to have everything running as smoothly and efficiently as possible for the remainder of the year.
And who knows... tomorrow may be absolutely perfect!
Thank you for partnering with us and for showing grace and kindness as we begin this exciting new school year together.
We can't wait to welcome our Tigers tomorrow morning. Have a wonderful evening, and remember...
At Eustis Heights Elementary, we're ready to Unleash Greatness! One Team. One Mission. One ROAR! Go Tigers!
💙💛 Tiger Families, the wait is almost over... Monday is almost here! 🐯
We are so excited to welcome our Tigers back for an amazing school year! To help everyone have a safe, smooth, and successful first day, please take a few minutes to review the attached First Day of School Reminders flyer.
The flyer includes important information about:
🐯 Pre-K & Kindergarten parents may walk their child to class during the first two days of school to help our youngest Tigers transition safely. This opportunity is reserved for Pre-K and Kindergarten families only.
🚗 Arrival and dismissal procedures
🚸 Walker and car rider expectations
🚦 Car line reminders and color locations
🍎 Free breakfast and lunch for all Lake County students
👕 Uniform reminders
⏰ Pre-K ESE and VPK dismissal information
Our goal is to make the first days of school a positive experience for every child, and your partnership is an important part of that success.
Please review the flyer carefully, and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! Give us a call, send us a message, or stop by the office, we're happy to help.
Thank you for your support, patience, and partnership. We can't wait to welcome our Tigers on Monday, August 10!
Ready to ROAR!
One School. Four Houses. One Family.
To help make the first days of school safe and smooth for everyone, only Pre-K and Kindergarten parents will be permitted to walk their child to class during the first two days of school.
Our youngest Tigers are just beginning their school journey, and this extra support helps them transition safely while allowing our staff to learn routines and ensure every child arrives where they need to be.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and partnership as we work together to provide a safe, welcoming start for all of our students.
We can't wait to see everyone on Monday… Ready to ROAR! 💙💛
