The East Palestine Board of Education will be returning to an in-person format beginning with the April 5th regular meeting. Regular monthly meetings of the School Board are normally held the first Monday of each month in the Elementary Media Center. Those attending are asked to continue to wear masks and observe social distancing practices.
Within the past 24 hours, the high school was notified that 3 of our students have tested positive for COVID-19. As a result, the high school administration conducted contact tracing and individually notified those students and their parents who would be considered close contacts of these positive cases. The most recent protocols for quarantining students were followed with the assistance of staff from Akron Children’s Hospital. All high school students, regardless of their contact with COVID-19 positive students, will receive the linked letter below tomorrow morning notifying them of this information. If you should have any questions about our COVID-19 protocols and procedures, please contact your child’s school. https://5il.co/r484

Recently, our Middle School and High School art teacher, Mrs. Goodchild, had an article published in High School Art magazine (April 2021) about her teaching practices during the pandemic. It is very clear that Mrs. Goodchild's creativity in the classroom goes beyond just teaching students art. Congratulations, Mrs. Goodchild!

If you take one look at Mrs. Wagner’s classroom at the middle school, it is very easy to see a passionate educator who is exceptional at what she does for our students.
We are looking for people to work track meets this upcoming season. We need more officials for all our track meet. This is due to officials choosing not to work meets because of Covid-19 concerns. We pay $20 a meet. Please contact Cindy Dunn @ Cindy.dunn@myepschools.org if interested. Refer to images for schedules.
