Welcome From the Principal

Dear Eagle Families,

I am pleased to welcome you to the 2022-23 school year! I would like to extend a special welcome to all of the new families joining Eastview this year and welcome back all of our returning families as well! I am honored to be your principal. Our Eagle Team is excited about the opportunities that this coming year will bring as we move beyond the restrictions of last year.  

Our two main school goals this year include:

• Refresh and Renew the culture at Eastview Middle following the inconsistent and unpredictable environment that we have lived in the past 2.5 years.   This will include the reintroduction of numerous clubs, intramurals, sports teams, field trips and special events over the course of the full year.

• A comprehensive Intervention Program will be implemented to address the learning gaps in Literacy and Numeracy of our students as needed.

We are committed at Eastview Middle to working together to provide our students with a rich learning environment. My vision, as the principal, is to put kids first! My belief is that all students can learn. As educators, we need to discover how each child learns in order to differentiate our instruction to support diverse learning styles. In a collaborative effort, we want children to thrive in all ways possible. My hope is that all children will enjoy school and nurture a learning environment that is positive, safe, warm, caring, as well as a fun place to learn and grow.  

Student success is attributed to the partnership and the relationships we build within our community and this is MOST important now more than ever. It truly does take a village and at Eastview we value teamwork and collaboration! Education is a joint venture and Team Eastview greatly appreciates the support you provide for your children at home and at school to help them meet their learning goals.  

Please make sure to take advantage of all of the avenues of communication that we offer.

• To start, the Eastview Middle School website is full of great information and we urge you to check the website often for news and updates.  https://www.rdpsd.ab.ca/eastview.  

• We utilize School Messenger on a regular basis to send important and timely information to parents. 

• Please be sure to read our weekly Newsletter, the ""  All Eastview families will receive a weekly email with the newsletter attached.  This is our primary mode of communicating important announcements and event information to parents, and we appreciate you taking the time to "stay in the loop!”

We are excited for the start of this year more than ever, and are dedicated to providing your child(ren) a memorable learning experience. 

Sincerely,

Mr. DeMale

Principal
