Yesterday was the annual *School Day Game* hosted by the Youngstown Phantoms hockey team. Our EPMS and EPHS Positive Behavior Intervention & Supports (PBIS) teams took the opportunity to utilize this fun-filled outing as a quarterly incentive for our students.




Can we just pause for a minute and give a shout-out to Senior, Maddison Foster?
She has completed the advanced requirements for certification in our newly established DSP-U Program at EPHS.
Maddison is now a DSP-I and is almost finished with her 100 work hours in partnership with Threshold Residential Services.
Way to go Maddison!!

Let's celebrate Officer Brindisi - it's School Resource Officer Appreciation Day!
We're lucky to have him!


Mr. Geiss is expanding the minds of our 2nd-grade students through the use of Ozobots and the introduction of color codes. This educational initiative is funded by a grant he received from Battelle and the Ohio STEM Learning Network (OSLN), which aims to promote the development of sustainable STEM education programs in classrooms.
Great things are happening here in EP Schools!


The EPMS Robotics Club worked diligently during their competition season. Team 44413B received the Sportsmanship Award! Congratulations!
Stay tuned for exciting news about the EPHS Robotics teams—we can't wait to share with you all of their great achievements!

Today was *Plan Your Path Day* at EPHS!
It’s never too early to create a plan that helps guide our students toward graduation.
With a variety of options available, the goal of the day was to provide a visual introduction to the academic programs at EPHS.
We hope you’ll join us this evening from 5 to 6 PM in the Media Center to explore what we have to offer!
And why not incorporate a bit of community spirit as well? Students created Valentine’s Day cards that will be delivered to Covington and Christian House!










Congratulations to the Yearbook Cover Design Winners!


As a reminder - we have an Early Release Day this Thursday! Adjust your schedules accordingly!
