Did you know that students can lose one to two months of reading proficiency over the summer? It's a real trend often called the "summer slide," but the best defense is simple: consistent, low-pressure reading!
We are incredibly lucky to have a wonderful resource right here in town to make summer reading fun and engaging. A huge THANK YOU to Miss Noreen and Miss Ivy from the East Palestine Memorial Public Library for visiting EPES today! They did a fantastic job introducing our students to the library and getting everyone excited for what's ahead.
The library’s official Summer Reading Program kicks off on June 6th! Let’s keep those sharp minds active all summer long. Be sure to stop by the library, grab a library card, and sign up for the summer program!

Gravity + Friction + Pringles = A major STEM victory!
Mrs. Herman’s 4th graders tackled the Pringles Ringle Challenge—building a self-supporting ring with absolutely no glue or tape. It took serious teamwork and strategy, but one group pulled it off!
High five to Amelia, Paxton, Vayda, and Lilly for making their Pringles ring stand tall!

To celebrate the end of Right to Read Week, some of our students had the chance to read uniquely. It's the Great American Camp Out here at EPES!
A tent, a "fire," and a good book - does it get any better?

Huge shoutout to 4th-graders Layne, Henry, Amelia, Vayda, and Lilly! They participated in the Eastern Ohio Council of Teachers of Mathematics (EOCTM) TAPs Math Competition (Teams Approach to Problem Solving), joining 967 students from 12 districts.
Together, they tackled 4 rounds and 20 tough problems using incredible teamwork, communication, and perseverance—and had a great time doing it! Way to go, Bulldogs!
The donations have officially been handed over to the Columbiana County Humane Society—great job, EPES! To add some perspective, the Principal's Advisory Council (PAC) had the opportunity to meet Ferdinand, who will benefit from these donations.
He is actually looking for a forever home, so please reach out to the Humane Society if you're interested in meeting this big guy!
Big steps for our littlest Bulldogs! 🐾
To help make the transition to next year smooth and exciting, our preschoolers recently participated in their screenings and visited the kindergarten classrooms. They had the opportunity to explore and meet some friendly faces.
We are so proud of their eagerness to learn and grow, and we can’t wait to officially welcome the Class of 2039 this fall!

Our 2nd-grade stars took center stage last week for their Red Carpet Publishing Party with the guidance of Mrs. Figley, Mrs. Prentice, Mrs. Rutledge and Mrs. Sobinovsky!
After weeks of hard work—carefully writing, editing, and revising—these talented students officially became published authors. These amazing Bulldogs debuted their printed books and shared them with a packed house of family and friends.
Seeing their creativity come to life in print is a huge milestone, and we couldn't be prouder of the dedication and growth these young writers have shown throughout this project. It was a true celebration of their hard work!

A huge thank you to the over 114 volunteers who showed up today for our annual Dog Days event.

It was a perfect display of Bulldog Pride in action, and these pictures only show a small portion of the work! Thank you!!
