Listening to your thoughts and sharing our dreams is very important to me. I expect to work together not only as a community but as a family, to support the development, growth and success of our students. Together we will continue to make Eastview the kind of Dear Students and Parents: school we expect it to be!” Welcome to all students and parents who will be joining us for the 2016-2017 school year……Welcome to the Eastview Family! As Eastview High School embarks on our twentieth year of successfully serving students and families, we continue to focus on our strong foundation and continuous improvement. Our foundation of success stems from people working together - supportive and involved parents, a talented and caring staff and exceptional, respectful students embracing rigorous study and involvement in developmental and competitive curricular and cocurricular programs. The “Eastview Puzzle Pieces” displayed below, continue to be our guiding principles which have established our attitude and provide our agenda for action. Our guiding principles represent over nineteen years of cooperative work and dreams of our students, parents, school people and our community to create the ideal school we expect Eastview High School to be. Get involved! Great organizations, schools and families prosper and excel when they are involved and continue to learn. A successful, meaningful and enjoyable experience in high school is directly related to involvement by both students and parents. We invite each student to learn more about involvement in academic and cocurricular activities and opportunities. The many opportunities at EVHS also come with responsibilities. Outlined in this handbook are the student responsibilities. A safe, positive and orderly school learning environment is critical to our continued success. Each student is expected to know, understand and be involved in both creating and sharing in the benefits of this strong positive learning community. Developing and growing our relationships is the key to the continued success of the Eastview Learning Community. Listening to your thoughts and sharing our dreams is very important to me. I expect to work together not only as a community but as a family, to develop our future plans, grow our resources and support the development, growth and success of our students. Together we will continue to make Eastview the kind of school we expect it to be! Best Wishes for Success, Dr. Randall W.
