Dear Eagle Nation Families,

We are excited to share an update about our Eagle Nation App! The app now includes a new communication tool called Rooms, which allows you to connect directly with your child’s teachers and stay up to date with classroom and school information.

📲 Important Note: If you experienced any trouble logging in this morning, please close the app completely and reopen it. The app received an update today, and this quick step should fix any issues.

Attached you will find a flyer with more details, as well as a QR code to help you download or access the Eagle Nation App quickly.

Thank you for staying connected with us as we continue to grow and improve our communication tools for families!

Cartoon-style image of a humanoid bald eagle wearing glasses, a headset, and a white shirt with a red-and-blue striped tie, sitting at a desk with computer monitors, a keyboard, and phones. The eagle appears to be working in tech support or communications. Behind it is a larger eagle illustration and monitors displaying colorful programming code. On the right side are icons resembling a school eagle logo, YouTube logo, and a circular logo labeled "Eagle Prints." A coffee mug with a multicolored circular logo and a notepad are also on the desk. The setting is a high-tech communications or IT workspace.
