What a day to be a Bulldog!

There is nothing quite like the energy of a Bulldog Pep Rally. Today, every student, from our youngest Kindergarteners to our seasoned Seniors, packed the stands to celebrate our Fall Athletes. School spirit runs deep through every grade level. Thank you to everyone who cheered, clapped, and made today unforgettable!

Learning from the best! That's what happened when PE Celebrity Guest(s) #3 joined in on the fun!

High school football players Jack Hall, Clark Rutledge, and RJ May were fantastic instructors for Mrs. Orlando's 4th-grade class, demonstrating proper form and technique for throwing and catching. It's great to see our older students sharing their knowledge!

Mr. Andre knows that everyone needs a brain break! Once their schoolwork is done, his students can choose to work on a puzzle, giving them a fun and relaxing way to recharge. The best part? Someone gets to take the completed masterpiece home at the end of the year.

This week to mark the 24th anniversary of 9/11, EPHS government students held a solemn reflection over the school PA system and also wrote dozens of cards of appreciation to EP’s own police and fire. This was their way to honor those first responders who lost their lives on that dark day.
