• Morning Drop-Off and Afternoon Pickup Reminders

Safety is our top priority, and we want to ensure everyone follows the proper drop-off and pickup procedures. No student should be dropped off or picked up on Rolesville Road. Stopping on the side of the road or making U-turns creates dangerous conditions for students, drivers, and pedestrians.

South Entrance – Staff and Student Drivers Only
The south entrance is reserved for staff and students who drive to school. Please do not use this entrance for student drop-off. All student drop-offs should take place in the designated carpool area.

Carpool Area Guidelines
When in the carpool lane, please have students exit the vehicle as soon as your car is alongside the sidewalk. This allows multiple vehicles to unload students at the same time, helping the line move quickly and efficiently. Also, please refrain from turning around in the middle of the carpool lane or pulling into open visitor spots and backing out.  This causes stops in the flow of traffic and can be dangerous. 

Thank you for doing your part to keep our drop-off and pickup routines safe and efficient for everyone.

●       The FAFSA Has Gotten Even Easier!

Federal Student Aid has incorporated two changes into the FAFSA this year, which will make the process more intuitive for applicants.

• Applicants are now able to sign up for their Studentaid.gov account and fill out their FAFSA on the same day, two steps that previously had to be done at separate times.
• Students will now only need their parent’s or legal guardian’s email address to start the contributor process, a significant simplification from previous years.

Take advantage of the head start, and get your students prepared to fill out a FAFSA now.

• Recordatorios de entrega por la mañana y recogida por la tarde

La seguridad es nuestra máxima prioridad y queremos asegurarnos de que todos sigan los procedimientos adecuados para dejar y recoger a los estudiantes. No se debe dejar ni recoger a ningún estudiante en Rolesville Road. Detenerse al costado de la carretera o dar vuelta en U crea condiciones peligrosas para estudiantes, conductores y peatones.

Entrada Sur – Solo para conductores de personal y estudiantes
La entrada sur está reservada para el personal y los estudiantes que van a la escuela en coche. Por favor, no utilice esta entrada para dejar a los estudiantes. Todos los estudiantes deben dejarlos en la zona designada para compartir coche.

Pautas para áreas de uso compartido de vehículos
Cuando estén en el carril compartido, por favor, pida a los estudiantes que salgan del vehículo tan pronto como su coche esté junto a la acera. Esto permite que varios vehículos bajen a los estudiantes al mismo tiempo, lo que facilita el movimiento de la fila. Además, por favor, evite dar la vuelta en medio del carril compartido o entrar en espacios libres para visitantes y salir en reversa. Esto causa interrupciones en el flujo de tráfico y puede ser peligroso. 

Gracias por hacer su parte para mantener nuestras rutinas de entrega y recogida seguras y eficientes para todos.

La Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes ha incorporado dos cambios en la FAFSA este año, que harán que el proceso sea más intuitivo para los solicitantes.

• This year East Wake Magnet High School is implementing a new intervention program to help our students be more successful in our four tested areas – Biology, English II, Math I and Math III, Warrior WIN Time.  At the heart of the plan is the Warrior WIN Time Academic Recovery Lab, operating during Blocks 1, 2, 4, and 5 to support academic recovery, credit recovery, and student growth.   During this time students are pulled from an elective course to make up missing assignments, quizzes and tests, or recover objectives, to prevent failure.  Warrior WIN Time represents a strategic, coordinated, and responsive approach to intervention—ensuring every student gets “What I Need” to succeed.

Some students may be pulled from an elective class to make up missing work after 3 week periods.  The timely intervention should help students experience more success in their tested area course and on the final EOC test.  Our intervention team will continue to monitor these students as they progress through the course.  Students will be provided with additional time to complete any missing assignments in their elective class from which they were pulled.

Another successful week at EWMHS.  Students were focused and doing what they needed to do in the classroom while teachers were providing engaging lessons.  We appreciated everyone’s patience with regards to schedules and schedule changes and know that not all students got all the classes they “wanted”.  We will continue to look at schedules and work to support student interests moving to second semester and beyond.

• Please have conversations with your student about the importance of being on time for classes. Being in class on time provides them with the best opportunity for success both at school and when they get out into the real world.   We have implemented a new tardy policy at EWMHS for the school year.  With tardy stations around the building students are asked to get a tardy pass if they are late and are not admitted to class without one.  If students begin to accumulate tardies the consequence is on the printed pass for them to be aware of.  We do understand that there are sometimes back ups at carpool and there are late buses and we make adjustments accordingly for first period.  Students need to understand that tardies are cumulative for all periods. If students are not following through on specific consequences such as Lunch Detention they will be assigned ISS for 1-3 days depending on how many tardies and missed detentions they may have.  The following are the specifics on tardy consequences:

  • 5 tardies- 1 day of Lunch Detention, 10 tardies- 2 days of Lunch Detention, 15 tardies- 5 days of Lunch Detention, 20 tardies- 1 day of ISS, 25 tardies- 3 days of ISS, 30 tardies- OSS

• Picture day for all students on September 17 with retakes on October 15  Students will be brought down to have their picture taken with their class.  These pictures will be used for student IDs as well as their yearbook photos.  Yearbook information has been given to period 2 teachers and will be distributed to students next week.

Otra semana exitosa en EWMHS. Los estudiantes estuvieron enfocados y haciendo lo que necesitaban hacer en el salón de clases mientras los maestros ofrecían lecciones atractivas. Agradecemos la paciencia de todos con respecto a los horarios y los cambios de horario, y sabemos que no todos los estudiantes obtuvieron todas las clases que “querían”. Continuaremos revisando los horarios y trabajando para apoyar los intereses de los estudiantes a medida que avancemos hacia el segundo semestre y más allá.

Sé mejor este año de lo que fuiste el año pasado.
Sé mejor este mes de lo que fuiste el mes pasado.

• Por favor, hablen con su estudiante sobre la importancia de llegar a tiempo a las clases. Estar en clase a tiempo les brinda la mejor oportunidad de éxito tanto en la escuela como en el mundo real. Hemos implementado una nueva política de tardanzas en EWMHS para este año escolar. Con estaciones de tardanza alrededor del edificio, se les pide a los estudiantes obtener un pase de tardanza si llegan tarde y no se les permite entrar a clase sin uno.

• Si los estudiantes comienzan a acumular tardanzas, la consecuencia está impresa en el pase para que estén al tanto. Entendemos que a veces hay retrasos en la fila de autos o que los autobuses llegan tarde, y hacemos ajustes correspondientes para la primera hora. Sin embargo, los estudiantes deben entender que las tardanzas se acumulan en todos los periodos. Si los estudiantes no cumplen con consecuencias específicas, como la detención durante el almuerzo, se les asignará ISS (suspensión en la escuela) por 1 a 3 días, dependiendo del número de tardanzas y detenciones perdidas.  Las consecuencias específicas por tardanza son:

  • 5 tardanzas – 1 día de detención durante el almuerzo
    10 tardanzas – 2 días de detención durante el almuerzo
    15 tardanzas – 5 días de detención durante el almuerzo
    20 tardanzas – 1 día de ISS
    25 tardanzas – 3 días de ISS

  30 tardanzas – OSS (suspensión fuera de la escuela)

Week 2 is in the books and the students continue to show me what they can do on a daily basis.  Please take the time to read the information below updating you on a student protest today at school and other information you will need in the upcoming week.  

A phrase that I heard from Dr. Adolph Brown that  many of the students and staff have heard from me that I follow is simple:

Be Better this year than you were last year.

Be Better this month than you were last month.

Be Better this week than you were last week.

Be Better today than you were yesterday.

If the staff and students at EWMHS continue to Be Better each day, there is quite a bit that we can accomplish. 

For All: 

 

• East Wake Magnet families, 

Because I want to keep you informed, I want to share information about a peaceful protest that occurred on campus today. 

At 12:00 this afternoon, approximately 650 students walked out of class to participate in the national walk out protesting against gun violence in schools. 

Staff did not participate or organize the event, but in order to ensure student safety, we directed students to the stadium and supervised the protest. Students who did not participate remained in class where instruction continued. 

Students returned to class at 1:00 The rest of the day continued without disruption. 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

• Picture day for all students on September 17 with retakes on October 15  Students will be brought down to have their picture taken with their class.  These pictures will be used for student IDs as well as their yearbook photos.  Yearbook information has been given to period 2 teachers and will be distributed to students next week. 

• Parents, please remember that the only students who should be parking on campus are Juniors and Seniors who have already received their parking tag.  Students must park in their assigned parking space, have their parking tag hung on the rearview mirror,  and must pull into the parking space.  Any car that is parked on campus without a parking tag is subject to being towed.  

• WCPSS and the state of North Carolina have established policy and legislation focused on electronic devices.  Please make sure to read and review the new policy with your student as EWMHS will be implementing the policy for the 2025-2026 school year throughout the building.  If you have any questions please let us know.  New WCPSS Cell Phone Use Policy   EWMHS Expectations

Ya pasó la segunda semana y los estudiantes siguen demostrándome lo que pueden hacer a diario. Por favor, tómense el tiempo de leer la siguiente información, que les informa sobre la protesta estudiantil que se llevó a cabo hoy en la escuela y sobre otra información que necesitarán la próxima semana.

Una frase que escuché del Dr. Adolph Brown, que muchos estudiantes y personal me han escuchado y que sigo, es simple:

Sé mejor este año que el año pasado.

Sé mejor este mes que el mes pasado.

Sé mejor esta semana que la semana pasada.

Sé mejor hoy que ayer.

Si el personal y los estudiantes de EWMHS siguen mejorando cada día, podemos lograr mucho.

Para todos:

• Familias de East Wake Magnet:

Como quiero mantenerlos informados, quiero compartir información sobre una protesta pacífica que tuvo lugar hoy en el campus.

A las 12:00 de esta tarde, aproximadamente 650 estudiantes abandonaron sus clases para participar en la huelga nacional en protesta contra la violencia armada en las escuelas.

El personal no participó ni organizó el evento, pero para garantizar la seguridad de los estudiantes, los dirigimos al estadio y supervisamos la protesta. Los estudiantes que no participaron permanecieron en clase, donde la instrucción continuó.

Los estudiantes regresaron a clase a la 1:00 p. m. El resto del día continuó sin interrupciones.

Por favor, avísenme si tienen alguna pregunta.

• Día de fotos para todos los estudiantes: 17 de septiembre, con repeticiones el 15 de octubre. Se llevará a los estudiantes para tomarse una foto con su clase. Estas fotos se usarán para las identificaciones estudiantiles, así como para las fotos del anuario. Se ha proporcionado información sobre el anuario a los maestros del segundo período y se distribuirá a los estudiantes la próxima semana.

• Padres, recuerden que los únicos estudiantes que deben estacionar en el campus son los estudiantes de penúltimo y último año que ya hayan recibido su etiqueta de estacionamiento. Los estudiantes deben estacionar en su espacio asignado, tener su etiqueta de estacionamiento colgada en el espejo retrovisor y entrar al espacio de estacionamiento. Cualquier automóvil estacionado en el campus sin etiqueta de estacionamiento puede ser remolcado.

Good evening East Wake Magnet families.  Thank you for your help in making the opening and first week of the 2025-2026 school year successful.  As we continue to make adjustments with what is best for students in mind we appreciate your patience and understanding.  If you have any questions or concerns please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.  

As the new principal at East Wake I heard a lot about the students this summer from staff and how great they are. I can honestly say that this week showed me exactly what the staff was talking about.  Students were patient as we got schedules situated and were respectful during our grade level meetings throughout the week.  They continue to work with us on new policies and procedures, and I look forward to seeing how far we can go.  A phrase that I heard from Dr. Adolph Brown that  many of the students and staff have heard from me that I follow is simple:

Be Better this year than you were last year.

Be Better this month than you were last month.

Be Better this week than you were last week.

Be Better today than you were yesterday.

If the staff and students at EWMHS continue to Be Better each day, there is quite a bit that we can accomplish.

For All: 

 

• Student Schedules Update-  We are continuing to review schedule modification requests, balance class sizes, and add additional courses as new staff join our team. The majority of schedule adjustments are expected to be finalized early next week, though some students’ schedules may still shift over the coming days. Thank you for your patience as we work to ensure all students are placed in the appropriate courses for a successful semester.

• We have made changes to the tardy policy and procedures this year at EWMHS.  Students who are late to class are required to get a pass from the tardy station that is closest to the classroom that they are going to.  As tardies accumulate there are different levels of consequences.  Students have been informed of expectations in being on time for class each day.  Please remind them that they are here to learn and need to be in class to do so.  

• Parents, please remember that the only students who should be parking on campus are Juniors and Seniors who have already received their parking tag.  Students must park in their assigned parking space, have their parking tag hung on the rearview mirror,  and must pull into the parking space.  Any car that is parked on campus without a parking tag is subject to being towed.  

• Drivers Education: Registration for the September driver education class is now open. Registration for the October and November driver education classes will begin on September 10th at 11:00 AM. All registration is done online. Please visit student services or Mr. Fister in room 1311 for more information.

• Girls Basketball workouts will start on Tues, September 2 at 2:30pm -3:45 pm in the main gym. Any girls interested in playing girls basketball need to see Coach Dupree in the cafeteria during your lunch for information.

• A reminder that the building does not open to carpool students and student drivers until 6:55 each day.  Doors coming from the student lot will not be opened until 6:55 to ensure that there is proper supervision in the building for student arrival. 

• Bus Transportation  Check transportation status in your Infinite Campus account.  If you do not see a "Y" under Transportation Status and need bus transportation, request transportation HERE.  Please note that Transportation will not process alternate stop requests (for parents with joint custody) until after the first ten days of school to determine space availability.

• WCPSS and the state of North Carolina have established policy and legislation focused on electronic devices.  Please make sure to read and review the new policy with your student as EWMHS will be implementing the policy for the 2025-2026 school year throughout the building.  If you have any questions please let us know.  New WCPSS Cell Phone Use Policy   EWMHS Expectations

• Graduation dates are set….midyear graduation will take place the evening of January 29, 2026.  Our graduation for the EWMHS Class of 2026 will be held on June 13 at 12:00. 

• Morning Drop-Off and Afternoon Pickup Reminders

Safety is our top priority, and we want to ensure everyone follows the proper drop-off and pickup procedures. No student should be dropped off or picked up on Rolesville Road. Stopping on the side of the road or making U-turns creates dangerous conditions for students, drivers, and pedestrians.

South Entrance – Staff and Student Drivers Only
The south entrance is reserved for staff and students who drive to school. Please do not use this entrance for student drop-off. All student drop-offs should take place in the designated carpool area.

Carpool Area Guidelines
When in the carpool lane, please have students exit the vehicle as soon as your car is alongside the sidewalk. This allows multiple vehicles to unload students at the same time, helping the line move quickly and efficiently. When exiting from morning carpool you will be directed to go through the back bus lot and onto Robertson Pond to access Rolesville Road.  

Thank you for doing your part to keep our drop-off and pickup routines safe and efficient for everyone.

Thank you for all you do to support EWMHS

Buenas tardes, familias de East Wake Magnet. Gracias por su ayuda en hacer que la apertura y la primera semana del año escolar 2025-2026 fueran un éxito. A medida que seguimos haciendo ajustes pensando en lo mejor para los estudiantes, agradecemos su paciencia y comprensión. Si tienen alguna pregunta o inquietud, no duden en comunicarse conmigo.  Como nueva directora de East Wake, este verano, el personal me habló mucho de los estudiantes y de lo geniales que son. Puedo decir honestamente que esta semana me demostró exactamente lo que el personal quería decir. Los estudiantes fueron pacientes mientras ajustábamos los horarios y fueron respetuosos durante las reuniones de nivel de grado a lo largo de la semana. Siguen trabajando con nosotros en nuevas políticas y procedimientos, y espero con ansias ver hasta dónde podemos llegar. Una frase que escuché del Dr. Adolph Brown, que muchos estudiantes y personal me han escuchado a mí y que sigo, es simple:

Sé mejor este año que el año pasado.

Sé mejor este mes que el mes pasado.

Sé mejor esta semana que la semana pasada.

Sé mejor hoy que ayer.

Si el personal y los estudiantes de EWMHS siguen mejorando cada día, podemos lograr mucho.

Para Todos:

• Actualización de Horarios Estudiantiles
  Estamos continuando con la revisión de solicitudes de cambios de horario, equilibrando el tamaño de las clases y agregando cursos adicionales a medida que nuevos docentes se integran a nuestro equipo. La mayoría de los ajustes de horario se finalizarán a principios de la próxima semana, aunque los horarios de algunos estudiantes aún podrían cambiar en los próximos días. Gracias por su paciencia mientras trabajamos para poner a todos los estudiantes en los cursos apropiados para que tengan un semestre exitoso.

• Actualización de la Política de Tardanzas
  Este año, la escuela de EWMHS ha actualizado su política y procedimientos de tardanzas. Los estudiantes que lleguen tarde a clase deberán obtener un pase en la estación de tardanzas más cercana al salón al que se dirigen antes de entrar. A medida que se acumulen las tardanzas, habrá diferentes niveles de consecuencias. Los estudiantes ya han sido informados de la expectativa de llegar a tiempo a clase cada día. Por favor, ayúdenos a recordarles que están aquí para aprender y necesitan estar en clase para hacerlo.

• Educación de Conductores
  La inscripción para la clase de educación de conductores de septiembre ya está abierta. La inscripción para las clases de octubre y noviembre comenzará el 10 de septiembre a las 11:00 a.m. Todo el registro se realiza en línea. Para más información, por favor visite Servicios Estudiantiles o al Sr. Fister en el salón 1311.

• Entrenamientos de Baloncesto Femenino
  Los entrenamientos de baloncesto femenino comenzarán el martes 2 de septiembre de 2:30 p.m. a 3:45 p.m. en el gimnasio principal. Todas las estudiantes interesadas en jugar baloncesto femenino deben ver a la entrenadora Dupree en la cafetería durante su almuerzo para obtener más información.

• Recordatorio

El edificio no abre para los estudiantes que llegan en automóvil compartido o que conducen hasta las 6:55 a.m. cada día. Las puertas que conectan con el estacionamiento de estudiantes no se abrirán hasta esa hora para garantizar que haya la supervisión adecuada en el edificio durante la llegada de los estudiantes.

• Transporte Escolar

Revise el estado de transporte en su cuenta de Infinite Campus. Si no ve una “Y” en la sección de Estado de Transporte y necesita transporte en autobús, solicítelo AQUÍ.  Tenga en cuenta que el departamento de Transporte no procesará solicitudes de paradas alternas (para padres con custodia compartida) hasta después de los primeros diez días de clases, con el fin de determinar la disponibilidad de espacio.

• WCPSS y el estado de Carolina del Norte han establecido una política y legislación sobre el uso de dispositivos electrónicos. Por favor, asegúrese de leer y repasar la nueva política con su estudiante, ya que EWMHS la implementará en todo el edificio durante el año escolar 2025-2026. Si tiene alguna pregunta, por favor háganoslo saber. Nueva Política de Uso de Teléfonos Celulares de WCPSS
  Expectativas de EWMHS

• Las fechas de graduación ya están establecidas…La graduación de medio año se llevará a cabo la tarde del 29 de enero de 2026. La graduación de la Clase de 2026 de EWMHS se realizará el 13 de junio a las 12:00 p.m.

• Recordatorios de Entrada por la Mañana y Salida por la Tarde la seguridad es nuestra máxima prioridad, y queremos asegurarnos de que todos sigan los procedimientos correctos de entrada y salida. Ningún estudiante debe ser dejado o recogido en Rolesville Road. Detenerse al lado de la carretera o hacer giros en U crea condiciones peligrosas para los estudiantes, conductores y peatones.

Entrada Sur – Solo para Personal y Estudiantes que Conducen
La entrada sur está reservada para el personal y los estudiantes que manejan hasta la escuela. Por favor, no use esta entrada para dejar estudiantes. Todas las entregas de estudiantes deben realizarse en el área designada para carpool.

Guías para el Área de Carpool
Cuando esté en el carril del carpool, haga que los estudiantes salgan del vehículo tan pronto como su auto esté junto a la acera. Esto permite que varios vehículos descarguen estudiantes al mismo tiempo, ayudando a que la fila avance de manera rápida y eficiente. Al salir del carpool de la mañana, se le indicará que pase por el estacionamiento de atrás de autobuses y luego a Robertson Pond para acceder a Rolesville Road.

Gracias por su colaboración para mantener nuestras rutinas de entrada y salida seguras y eficientes para todos.

Gracias por todo lo que hacen para apoyar a EWMHS

Good evening East Wake Magnet families.  Thank you to all those families that attended our Open House last night.  We know there were some lines early on and we apologize if you needed to wait, but the turnout was great and we appreciated your feedback and questions throughout the evening.  Monday, August 25th, our students return to the building and staff is looking forward to welcoming them back. There is a lot of important information in this message. Please take the time to read through the information to remain updated. I have grouped information within the message based on who it may apply to by grade level to make it a bit easier to navigate.  Moving forward the Warrior Weekly Message will be shared on Friday evenings.  

For All:

• A reminder that the building does not open to carpool students and student drivers until 6:55 each day.  Doors coming from the student lot will not be opened until 6:55 to ensure that there is proper supervision in the building for student arrival.  When students arrive on Monday they should report to their first period class.  Updated schedules will be available for them in class.  If students are not sure where their first period class is we will have locators in the cafeteria to assist them on where to go.  

• Bus Transportation  Check transportation status in your Infinite Campus account.  If you do not see a "Y" under Transportation Status and need bus transportation, request transportation HERE.  Please note that Transportation will not process alternate stop requests (for parents with joint custody) until after the first ten days of school to determine space availability.

• Schedules:  We regret that some students are having difficulty with seeing their schedules in Infinite Campus.  This is not a school-level issue that we can correct. Over the course of the next week, schedules will continue to be adjusted to balance class sizes and account for possible staffing changes.

Important: Schedule changes will be very limited this year. We will only consider schedule corrections for the following reasons:

1. The student is scheduled for a class they have already passed.

2. The student is scheduled for a class that requires a prerequisite they have not completed.

3. The student is missing a class needed to meet a graduation requirement (this does not apply to early graduates).

4. The student has more or fewer than 8 classes.

5. The student is placed in the wrong level of a class. 

Please note: We cannot honor requests for specific teachers or class periods.

To request a schedule change, click on the link below to access the schedule change request form. Only requests submitted through this form will be reviewed. More details about the process and what information you need are provided on the form. Our window for schedule modifications will close on Thursday, August 28 for the school year. Students must log in to their WakeID account to access the form. Click here to access the EWMHS Schedule Modification Form.   Please remind students that they are not to come to student services to request a schedule change.  The student’s counselor will call them down with regards to their request and any changes that may be made.  

• WCPSS and the state of North Carolina have established policy and legislation focused on electronic devices.  Please make sure to read and review the new policy with your student as EWMHS will be implementing the policy for the 2025-2026 school year throughout the building.  If you have any questions please let us know.  New WCPSS Cell Phone Use Policy   EWMHS Expectations

• Chromebooks:   All students are reminded to charge their computers prior to school on Monday.   New students and freshmen who have not been assigned a Chromebook will be provided one in the next few days. 

• Graduation dates are set….midyear graduation will take place the evening of January 29, 2026.  Our graduation for the EWMHS Class of 2026 will be held on June 13 at 12:00. 

• Morning Drop-Off and Afternoon Pickup Reminders

Buenas noches, familias de East Wake Magnet.
Gracias a todas las familias que asistieron a nuestra Casa Abierta anoche. Sabemos que hubo algunas filas al principio y les pedimos disculpas si tuvieron que esperar, pero la asistencia fue excelente y agradecemos sus comentarios y preguntas a lo largo de la noche.

El lunes 25 de agosto, nuestros estudiantes regresan al edificio y el personal está emocionado por darles la bienvenida de nuevo.

Este mensaje contiene mucha información importante. Por favor, tómense el tiempo para leerlo completo y mantenerse actualizados. He organizado la información según el nivel de grado al que corresponde, para que sea más fácil de navegar.

A partir de ahora, el Mensaje Semanal del Guerrero se compartirá los viernes por la tarde.

Para Todos:

• Un recordatorio: el edificio no abre para los estudiantes que llegan en automóvil ni para los que conducen hasta las 6:55 a.m. cada día. Las puertas que dan al estacionamiento de estudiantes no se abrirán hasta las 6:55 a.m. para asegurar que haya supervisión adecuada dentro del edificio al momento de la llegada de los estudiantes.Cuando los estudiantes lleguen el lunes, deben dirigirse directamente a su clase del primer período. Los horarios actualizados estarán disponibles para ellos en clase.  Si los estudiantes no están seguros de dónde está su clase del primer período, tendremos personal en la cafetería para ayudarles a encontrar a dónde deben ir. 

• Transporte Escolar Revise el estado del transporte en su cuenta de Infinite Campus.
  Si no ve una "Y" bajo el estado de transporte (Transportation Status) y necesita transporte en autobús, solicítelo AQUÍ. Tenga en cuenta que el Departamento de Transporte no procesará solicitudes de paradas alternas (para padres con custodia compartida) hasta después de los primeros diez días de clases, para poder determinar la disponibilidad de espacio.

• Horarios:Lamentamos que algunos estudiantes estén teniendo dificultades para ver sus horarios en Infinite Campus. Este no es un problema que podamos resolver a nivel escolar. Durante la próxima semana, los horarios seguirán siendo ajustados para equilibrar el tamaño de las clases y tomar en cuenta posibles cambios en el personal docente.

           Importante: Los cambios de horario serán muy limitados este año. Solo consideraremos correcciones               de horario por las siguientes razones:

  • El estudiante está inscrito en una clase que ya aprobó.

  • El estudiante está inscrito en una clase que requiere un prerrequisito que no ha completado.
    
    

  • Al estudiante le falta una clase necesaria para cumplir un requisito de graduación (esto no aplica para quienes se gradúan anticipadamente).
    
    

  • El estudiante tiene más o menos de 8 clases.
    
    

  • El estudiante está colocado en el nivel incorrecto de una clase.
    
    

  Nota: No podemos aceptar solicitudes para cambiar de maestro o de período de clase.

  Para solicitar un cambio de horario, haga clic en el enlace a continuación para acceder al formulario de solicitud de cambio de horario. Solo se revisarán las solicitudes enviadas a través de este formulario. En el formulario encontrará más detalles sobre el proceso y la información que se necesita.

  La ventana para modificaciones de horario cerrará el jueves 28 de agosto para el ciclo escolar. Los estudiantes deben iniciar sesión en su cuenta de WakeID para acceder al formulario.

Good morning East Wake Magnet families.  My apologies for the delay in getting information out this weekend.  August 25th will be here shortly and we are looking forward to students returning to the building.  Staff reports back this week and will be ready for the students return the following week.  There is a lot of important information in this message. Please take the time to read through the information to remain updated. I have grouped information within the message based on who it may apply to by grade level to make it a bit easier to navigate.  

 

For All:

 

• Student Schedules  As of Friday, August 14, students can now access their initial class schedules using their Infinite Campus login through WakeID. Over the course of the next two weeks, schedules will continue to be adjusted to balance class sizes and account for possible staffing changes.

Important: Schedule changes will be very limited this year. We will only consider schedule corrections for the following reasons:

1. The student is scheduled for a class they have already passed.

2. The student is scheduled for a class that requires a prerequisite they have not completed.

3. The student is missing a class needed to meet a graduation requirement (this does not apply to early graduates).

4. The student has more or fewer than 8 classes.

5. The student is placed in the wrong level of a class. 

Please note: We cannot honor requests for specific teachers or class periods.

To request a schedule change, click on the link below to access the schedule change request form. Only requests submitted through this form will be reviewed. More details about the process and what information you need are provided on the form. Our window for schedule modifications will close on Thursday, August 28 for the school year. Students must log in to their WakeID account to access the form. Click here to access the EWMHS Schedule Modification Form. 

• WCPSS and the state of North Carolina have established policy and legislation focused on electronic devices.  Please make sure to read and review the new policy with your student as EWMHS will be implementing the policy for the 2025-2026 school year throughout the building.  If you have any questions please let us know.  New WCPSS Cell Phone Use Policy   EWMHS Expectations

• Graduation dates are set….midyear graduation will take place the evening of January 29, 2026.  Our graduation for the EWMHS Class of 2026 will be held on June 13 at 12:00.  

• Morning Drop-Off and Afternoon Pickup Reminders

Safety is our top priority, and we want to ensure everyone follows the proper drop-off and pickup procedures. No student should be dropped off or picked up on Rolesville Road. Stopping on the side of the road or making U-turns creates dangerous conditions for students, drivers, and pedestrians.

South Entrance – Staff and Student Drivers Only
The south entrance is reserved for staff and students who drive to school. Please do not use this entrance for student drop-off. All student drop-offs should take place in the designated carpool area.

Carpool Area Guidelines
When in the carpool lane, please have students exit the vehicle as soon as your car is alongside the sidewalk. This allows multiple vehicles to unload students at the same time, helping the line move quickly and efficiently.

Thank you for doing your part to keep our drop-off and pickup routines safe and efficient for everyone.
