ANNUAL REPORT Financial Summary 2024-2025

Students at Eagle's Landing Christian Academy enjoy the privilege of a richly diverse student population. A foundational principle of Christian education is that all people are created in the image of God and there is a focused effort to strengthen our diverse culture by addressing criticial issues. CHRISTIAN SERVICE PROGRAM One of our core values at the school is “Service and Stewardship.” This is an integral part of the process of spiritual formation – to equip and empower students to use their gifts to make an impact at school and in the community. It is our desire that they become the hands and feet of Jesus. We also believe that sometimes action precedes affection. By requiring service, our hope is that as our students serve, they will cultivate a desire and affection for loving other and meeting practical needs.

Tuition “ELCA continues to be a special place in my heart. With five children attending ELCA, it’s a blessing to see the teachers pour into them day in and day out. Not only do they teach them about Jesus and help educate them, but they also participate in my children’s lives outside of school. The teachers come to their baseball games and football games on the weekends; they call and text when my children are sick. I just love the family atmosphere that my children get to experience, and that I experienced as a student myself.” - Ashley Cash, ELCA Class of 2005 and mom of five current ELCA students Schedule a Tour Today Ready to provide your child with a Christ-centered education at a school where they can thrive?

No. Approved homeschool students may participate only in the specific program(s) for which they are accepted and must enroll in a designated on-campus class tied to that participation. Broader academic enrollment is not available. Are homeschool students eligible for prom, homecoming, or other student activities? No. Homeschool participants do not have access to broader student life activities, including prom, homecoming court, class trips, retreats, or daily campus life outside of their scheduled class or program commitment. Do all homeschool students qualify to participate in athletics or competitive fine arts? No. Because ELCA is a GHSA member school, homeschool students must meet all GHSA eligibility requirements to participate in athletics or GHSA-sanctioned fine arts competitions. Many homeschool programs do not meet these requirements. Can ELCA determine GHSA eligibility before a student applies? In some cases, preliminary guidance may be provided; however, GHSA eligibility is not guaranteed. Families may be asked to submit additional documentation to verify compliance. Does admission guarantee placement on a team or in a fine arts ensemble? No. Admission to ELCA does not guarantee placement on an athletic team or in a fine arts ensemble.

You can do this by filling out and submitting a paper match form provided by your employer or through an electronic submission process. Please search our database for company-specific information. How do I submit a matching gift? Donate to a nonprofit. Log into your company's matching gift submission website (if you use the Double the Donation search tool, you will receive a follow-up email linking to this page).

If you submit your matching gift or volunteer grant outside of the nonprofit’s online donation form or dedicated matching gifts page, contact the nonprofit directly to notify them of the request, so they may track the matching funds as needed. What if I forget to submit my matching gift request? If you forget to submit your matching gift after selecting your company at the time of donation, you will receive a series of auto-generated emails prompting you to submit your match. The majority of companies offer an all-electronic matching gift submission process. Are matching gifts and volunteer grants tax-deductible?

EMAIL THE NURSE At Eagle's Landing Christian Academy we are blessed to have a full-time registered nurse on-site during the school day. Nurse Katie Cool is ready to help you and your family! Children need to be healthy to learn and learn to be healthy. KATIE COOL Direct Office: 678.818.1061 Fax: 770.957.2290 Clinic Hours: 7:30 A.M. - 3:30 P.M. or by appointment ELCA Health Policy This policy provides guidance to improve learning by minimizing contagious illness at school. We recognize that each situation is likely to be different and that this policy must be flexible while still providing an overall strategic direction. Common types of contagious diseases include: COVID-19, Flu (influenza), common cold, stomach viruses, and strep throat. Contagious diseases can spread by: Physical contact with an infected person, such as through touch or respiratory droplets. Contact with objects and other surfaces that an infected person has touched. When to keep your child home: We continue to encourage families and employees to self-monitor for signs and symptoms of illness before arriving on campus. Students should feel well enough to participate in all activities while in school. If a student displays any of the following symptoms, we require that they stay home for the appropriate isolation period and at least 24 hours from last symptom and last dose of any fever-reducing medicine: Fever (100.0°F or above) or chills Persistent cough Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing New loss of taste or smell Nausea or vomiting Diarrhea Positive test result for COVID-19, Flu, or Strep throat Prevention: Hand Hygiene: Keeping hands clean is one of the best ways to keep from getting sick and spreading illnesses. Practicing good hand hygiene gets rid of bacteria and viruses from contact with other people or surfaces. The school promotes proper hand hygiene throughout the school day. The school ensures that an adequate supply of hand sanitizer, hand soap, and paper towels is available in all classrooms. Face Masks: Face masks are optional except as required for persons who have been in close contact with a COVID-19 case outside of school. Vaccines: The CDC encourages everyone to get vaccinated against communicable diseases as advised by their healthcare provider. Cleaning: Our maintenance staff will continue to disinfect frequently touched surfaces with EPA approved products. Hand sanitizer is available in all classrooms and throughout the building. Electrostatic sprayers are used to disinfect on a routine basis and for specific areas as needed. Lunch Services: K-12 students eat lunch in the cafeteria. PreK students eat lunch in their respective classrooms. Hand sanitizer is available, and tables are cleaned and disinfected after each use. For questions, or to report any communicable illness, please contact our nurse, Katie Cool, at katie.cool@eagleslanding.org or by phone directly at 678-818-1061. HELPFUL INFORMATION If your child needs to take medication while at school: 1. Complete the authorization form and fax or bring completed copy to the Clinic. 2. Please keep prescription medications and/or over-the-counter medications in the original container. Your pharmacy can usually place a prescription in 2 labeled containers, 1 for school and 1 for home use. 3. For children with severe allergies, please have your doctor complete an allergy action plan and send a copy to the Clinic. Automated external defibrillators (AED): There are 3 AEDs located on the ELCA campus. One is located on the wall near the nurse's station, another is on the wall in the hallway between the worship center and the choral suite and there is one in the Athletic Trainer's office. The school nurse is responsible for checking the batteries in these units monthly. Our goal is to help keep students and staff healthy and to take measures needed to stop the spread of the COVID-19 virus as it makes its way onto campus. Our plan is designed to help us be proactive in our response to COVID-19 and to help us return to campus safely. It is meant to be practical, flexible, and includes reliable guidelines and recommendations. Home Screenings: It is important that everyone in our school work together with open communication and flexibility so that we can provide the best level of safety and health for all of our students and staff. Checking your students for symptoms before bringing them to school is one of the best ways to help keep our campus healthy. When your student wakes up not feeling well, it is best to be safe and keep them at home. Medications: Students should not carry medications with them while at school. Students that are in middle or high school may carry life-saving medications with them (Epi-pens, inhalers) only if parents sign the Authorization to Carry EpiPen or the Authorization to Carry inhaler and turn it in to the clinic. All other prescription medication will be kept in the clinic and require an Authorization Form to be administered as needed. EMERGENCY DRILLS AND INCLEMENT WEATHER PROCEDURES Periodic fire, tornado and lockdown drills are required by state law. An evacuation route and procedures are posted in each classroom. WHEN SHOULD MY CHILD STAY HOME? 10 ELCA GUIDELINES FOR KEEPING YOUR CHILD HOME FROM SCHOOL Adapted from Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. A guide to making an early morning decision. 1. FEVER: Children with a fever over 100.0 degrees F should stay at home until there is no fever for 24 hours.

Call your doctor if your child has a fever with pain, rash, weakness, vomiting, or diarrhea. 2. DIARRHEA & VOMITING: One event of watery diarrhea or more than one event of vomiting are reasons to keep your child home. If vomiting or diarrhea continues or your child also has a fever, rash, or weakness, call your doctor. 3.

PINK EYE / CONJUNCTIVITIS: If your child's eye is red with cloudy or yellow drainage, they should stay home until symptoms are gone. Call your doctor for treatment. 6. PERSISTENT EAR PAIN: Your child should stay at home if they have a lot of ear pain. Call your doctor for treatment. 7. IMPETIGO: If your child has impetigo (red, oozing blister areas with yellow-gold scabs on the body or face) they should stay home as long as your doctor says. 8. STOMACH ACHE: If your child complains of a stomach ache, especially if they say it hurts to move and they do not want to eat, they should stay home. Call your doctor. 9.

No. Homeschool participants do not have access to broader student life activities, including prom, homecoming court, class trips, retreats, or daily campus life outside of their scheduled class or program commitment. Do all homeschool students qualify to participate in athletics or competitive fine arts? No. Because ELCA is a GHSA member school, homeschool students must meet all GHSA eligibility requirements to participate in athletics or GHSA-sanctioned fine arts competitions. Many homeschool programs do not meet these requirements. Can ELCA determine GHSA eligibility before a student applies? In some cases, preliminary guidance may be provided; however, GHSA eligibility is not guaranteed. Families may be asked to submit additional documentation to verify compliance. Does admission guarantee placement on a team or in a fine arts ensemble? No. Admission to ELCA does not guarantee placement on an athletic team or in a fine arts ensemble.

We embrace the philosophy that a team approach is essential to reach a successful end. Here you will find resources for testing, college planning and admissions, and financial aid. Parents can be active participants in the college exploration and application process. You should visit campuses with your child and participate in programs offered by admission offices.

Predominantly, these individuals will connect the student with resources in which the focus is prevention, intervention, positive development, and regular communication between school and families. Most importantly, though, the goal of this network is to glorify God. He is the Wonderful Counselor (Isaiah 9:6), Great Healer (Psalm 103:3), Eternal Helper (John 14:16) Restorer of the Broken-hearted (Psalm 147:3) and Keeper of Perfect Peace (Isaiah 26:3). Our staff is committed to assisting our students and their families by pointing them to the only ONE who can truly meet their needs.

We are excited to discover more ways to impact our students to ensure their positive well-being. ELCA does not tolerate bullying, harassment, or intimidation of any sort. Principals and the school counselor will thoroughly assess and intervene any such suspicions. Many preventative efforts are made through our Kingdom Educational foundation and Biblical Worldview approach to behavioral expectations. Our chapel services, Unity Counsel, Student government accountability groups, and more each promote proper treatment of others. Any deviation is quickly identified and addressed. In any instance whereby child abuse or neglect is suspected, the staff member will immediately notify a principal and/or the School Counselor. The student will be evaluated and referred to the governmental authorities as determined appropriate by these individuals and as consistent with Mandatory Reporting laws. Mandated Reporters are not required to notify guardians of an official report of child abuse or neglect. ELCA will disclose this information as deemed safe and appropriate.
