To commemorate America's 250th anniversary, this past year's EPHS Honors Government class created a time capsule that will be opened in 2076, during our nation's 300th birthday celebration.
From Bulldog traditions and school memories to everyday items that capture life in 2026, this project gives future generations a glimpse into what life was like for today's students. We are incredibly proud of the thought, creativity, and care our Honors Government students put into creating this lasting legacy.
A special thank you to everyone who contributed to making this meaningful project possible. We look forward to sharing more as this exciting tradition becomes part of Bulldog history! Here's a little glimpse into what they included.
