Each year at Eastside seems to go by in a flash - one day it’s Fall Open House, and the next seems to be the Senior Picnic. Keeping up with it all, supporting students, teachers, and staff, and surrounding our community with support are the core goals of Eastside PTSA, and we couldn’t do it without your help!
Join us today and support all the good things that are happening at Eastside. We always have room for volunteers, whether it's for one shift of Eagle Bites or a recurring commitment to bring food for the monthly staff lunches. Sign up and receive monthly newsletters to keep you in the loop, as well as the chance to get more involved if you would like. Funds raised by Eastside PTSA go directly back to the school in the form of teacher grants, student support, and school improvements. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us at EastsideEaglesPTSA@gmail.com.
We are looking forward to connecting soon!

Eagle Bites: Welcome to a new year of Eagle Bites! Eagle Bites is a snack shop in the lunchroom that is open all lunch periods for students and teachers any full day school is in session. Volunteers man the store selling snacks and drinks, and it's a great way to be involved (and see your child at lunch!) inside the school building. Eagle Bites is the only fundraising activity for PTSA at EHS and allows for teacher instructional grant requests to be funded. 100% of the proceeds stay inside the EHS building to help create a better learning environment for our students.
With only scheduling 2 volunteers each shift, it is very important that you are present or find a replacement for your shift. Because there is money involved, if you are not there, the store can not open! It is disappointing to the students and disruptive to the continued success of the store.
PTSA's Reflection Program: Reflections is a National PTA arts program that encourages children to reflect on a common theme and create original artwork in literature, visual, and performing arts. There are six categories which students may enter artwork: Musical Composition, Dance Choreography, Film Production, Photography, Visual Arts, or Literature. We have had a winner at the National Level, and many winners at the district and state levels in the past! Winners at the district, state and national levels can win valuable awards! More information will be coming soon!
