Mrs. Herman's fourth-grade students wanted to express their appreciation for our teachers and continue the Teacher Appreciation Week celebrations!




At EPMS, we are excited to announce many new enrichment opportunities for our students, made possible through the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce's Expanding Opportunities for Each Child Grant Program, which our district has been awarded.
We are focusing on areas such as science, math, visual arts, and communications, and we have recently introduced a variety of after-school programs. The level of student involvement has been truly remarkable!
Students have been learning the basics of architectural design by creating Gnome Homes, exploring the art of sculpture, and constructing graphic novels from start to finish. These programs are positively transforming our students' educational experiences.
You can even listen to our students who wanted to learn more about podcasting! https://open.spotify.com/episode/6YBxiTOkyhEA2loTsnt9OU?si=ZO3p7ma_RS-OSLCToq8CVQ
Stay tuned for information about additional programs offered through this grant—we can't wait to share our excitement with you!
