March is Music In Our Schools Month, and we’re celebrating with a Mystery Musician game! We want all Middle and High School students—and our staff—to help find the hidden musicians in our halls.
To play, head to the display boards in your cafeteria and check out the staff profiles. Each correct guess earns an entry into a raffle for both a student and staff winner in each building!
Beyond the prizes, we hope this sparks some great conversations about the songs and stories that connect us all. Stop by the boards and submit your best guesses.
Happy sleuthing, Bulldogs!

How do we prepare the next generation for essential roles in our community? The DSP-U program at East Palestine High School is the gold standard.
Facilitated by Lighthouse Cove, this program bridges the gap between the classroom and the real world. Students complete 160 hours of training and leave with a NADSP E-Badge Academy credential—equipping them with the skills to support people with I/DD immediately upon graduation.
