This is more than just a game—it's a demonstration of community as four school districts—East Palestine, Columbiana, Crestview, and Heartland Christian —come together to support a beloved member of our family, Coach Rick Gates, and his daughter Aricka Gates.
100% of all proceeds from the gate, concessions, raffles, gift baskets, and private donations will go directly to the Gates family.
Let's recognize these exceptional EPES students!
If your family needs support, please know we are here to help. Our first distribution date of the school year will be Friday, November 7th. Sign up for the pantry and find a full list of Columbiana County food assistance options, plus the latest info on CAA food vouchers for SNAP recipients, on our website.

This morning was truly special as we were beyond honored to open our doors and host a Senior Citizens Breakfast for our valued community members! It was a fantastic opportunity to showcase the incredible talent and exemplary programs offered across our district:
-2nd Graders touched our hearts with their reading of original poetry.
-Our bright Middle School students shared details about the remarkable educational opportunities they pursued this past summer.
-High School students demonstrated their civic engagement by discussing their inspiring visions for contributing to the landscape of downtown East Palestine!
To conclude the event, which was focused on embodying true Bulldog Pride, our talented music students performed the Alma Mater, beautifully bringing us all together in tradition and song.
Thank you to the members of our community who attended and to our students for making this such a memorable morning!
This Friday will be an early release day for our students. Please plan accordingly!
This program is such a valuable resource for our school community, providing a safe, supportive, and fun environment where our students can start and end their school days. Thank you, Miss Amber, for making it so special!
To maintain consistency, both the elementary and middle schools will follow the same themes each day, with the exception of Monday. Since Monday is Picture Day at the elementary school, we want to ensure that your lovely Picture Day outfits are not overshadowed.
Take a look at the schedule!
Pre-Game Homecoming Activities: 6:35 p.m.
Kick-Off: 7:00 p.m.
The track at Reid Memorial Stadium will be closed all day on Saturday, October 18th, to continue the resurfacing project.
We appreciate your cooperation and patience!
In recognition of the dedicated leaders who invest so much in our students, teachers, and schools, we’d like to help you get to know them.
First, we would like to spotlight Rob Clunen, the principal of our elementary school. He consistently promotes a positive environment by emphasizing our Bulldog Rules: Responsible, Respectful, Kind, Safe, and Cooperative.
Thank you PTO!
