This morning (10/31) the fire alarm within the EPHS kitchen was triggered. It is the same sensor that has been investigated by the appropriate fire department officials. The Fire Chief was dispatched to the building to give an all clear.
Also, at this time all phone lines within the district are not working properly, so you may have issues communicating with the offices. Please use other sources such as Remind, email and Class Dojo to communicate with teachers. We will update once the issue is resolved. We appreciate your patience as we work quickly in this matter!
