Parents
On behalf of the East Aiken School of the Arts faculty, staff, and administration, it is my honor to welcome you to East Aiken School of the Arts!
At East Aiken School of the Arts, we are committed to our mission to Accommodate differences, Reveal a passion for learning, Teach appreciation, and Stimulate creativity. We believe in educating the whole child and are passionate about developing students of character who understand the importance of communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. As a certified Arts in Basic Curriculum school, we are steadfast in our commitment to provide all students with a high quality, arts-infused education that addresses multiple intelligences and provides all students with a positive learning environment. At East Aiken School of the Arts, we are helping all students develop the World Class Skills of the Profile of the South Carolina Graduate by providing all students with a safe, accommodating, stimulating, artistically and academically challenging child-centered learning environment. Each day we strive for academic excellence through the arts by maintaining high expectations for teachers and students, providing rigorous, student-centered instruction, making data-driven instructional decisions, cultivating students of character, and building positive relationships with all stakeholders.
Parent involvement is a key element in a student’s success at school. We strongly believe that parents are our partners in educating our children and preparing them to be productive, caring, and contributing citizens. Collaboration, cooperation, and communication between the home and school are essential for a child’s success at school. We welcome parent participation and support during the school year. We encourage parents to be active members of our PTO or School Improvement Council and to take advantage of our many volunteer opportunities. We can achieve more when we work together in our pursuit of academic excellence through the arts.
Thank you for trusting us with your children every day! It is a true honor and pleasure to work with your family! Please do not hesitate to contact the school office if you have questions, concerns, or suggestions. We love hearing from you! We appreciate your support and involvement as we continue to strive for academic excellence through the arts!
Respectfully,
Lisa A. Fallaw, Ed.S.
