Four Ways We Focus on Well Being

Here at Eagle Elementary of Akron we create a nurturing environment that prioritizes the well-being of our students. As a K-5 tuition-free public charter school, we understand the importance of fostering not only academic excellence but also the physical, social, and emotional growth of our students and their families. Let’s take a closer look at the initiatives that make Eagle Elementary a beacon of care and compassion within our community.

Free Breakfast & Lunch for Every Student

At Eagle Elementary, we firmly believe that no student should start their day on an empty stomach. That's why we ensure that every child receives a nutritious breakfast to kickstart their day of learning. We recognize the impact of proper nutrition on academic performance and aim to provide our students with the energy and focus they need to excel in their classrooms. Additionally, we extend our commitment to student well-being by offering a wholesome lunch to all, ensuring that hunger never becomes a barrier to learning.

Physical and Mental Well-Being

Physical education and health are extremely important in the overall development of our students. That's why our dedicated PE/Health teacher plays a vital role in teaching our students about physical health, nutrition, fitness, and general well-being. Through engaging physical activities and exercises, our students develop strength, coordination, and a sense of accomplishment. These classes promote physical fitness, instill healthy habits, and educate our children about the importance of leading an active lifestyle.

Social-Emotional Health

We place a strong emphasis on social-emotional learning (SEL) as we recognize its significance in our students' overall development. Our specialized programs provide our students with the tools and strategies to navigate their emotions, build healthy relationships, and develop empathy and resilience. In addition, students have access to trained mental health professionals when they need a little more support. Through our SEL work, we equip our students to succeed academically and emotionally, laying a foundation for their future growth and well-being.

Meeting the Needs of Students and Families

We believe that supporting student well-being extends beyond the confines of our classrooms. We work diligently to meet the needs of our families, fostering a sense of belonging and ensuring that every child feels supported and valued. By providing a welcoming and inclusive environment, we strive to create a second home for our students, promoting a strong sense of community and collaboration.

We are dedicated to the well-being of our students and understand that education goes beyond textbooks and grades. Through providing daily meals, promoting physical fitness and health, emphasizing social-emotional learning, and meeting the needs of our students and families, we create an environment where every child can thrive academically, emotionally, and socially. Join us at Eagle Elementary, where we prioritize the growth and happiness of every child who walks through our doors.
