🐾🧡 BULLDOG BELONGING: Wear Your Pride, Feel Like You Belong! 🧡🐾
Calling all East Palestine Bulldog families, alumni, and community members!
Do you have Bulldog T-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, or other school-spirit clothing tucked away in your closet that no longer fits, hasn’t been worn in years, or is simply collecting dust? We would love to give those items a NEW PURPOSE!
As part of our *Bulldog Belonging* initiative, donated new or gently used, clean school-spirit clothing will help welcome new students and support middle and high school students who unexpectedly need a change of clothes during the school day. Your donation can do more than clear out a closet—it can help a student feel comfortable, confident, included, and proud to be a Bulldog!
Once a Bulldog, Always a Bulldog!
*Donations can be dropped off at the EPMS or EPHS Offices

Mrs. Goodchild recently took several East Palestine students to Youngstown State University for Art Day, where they got an inside look at what pursuing an education and career in the arts can look like. From hands-on art projects to conversations with YSU students and faculty, it was a great opportunity to explore creative interests and learn about future career paths!
