It’s School Resource Officer Appreciation Day, and we are lucky to have the best in the business!

A huge thank you to Officer Mike Brindisi for his unwavering commitment to the East Palestine School District. From ensuring a safe learning environment to building meaningful connections with our students, Officer Mike is an essential part of our Bulldog family.

He’s always there when we need him, and today, we’re making sure he knows how much he’s appreciated.

Two thumbs up for Officer Mike!

Today, some of our EPHS students stepped into the future during Huntington Bank Reality Days!

Students were challenged with real-life scenarios, from managing monthly salaries to navigating unexpected expenses. By working through these budgets, they gained a much better understanding of fiscal responsibility and what it takes to balance life’s "price tag."

A huge THANK YOU to Huntington Bank for investing your time and expertise into our students. We appreciate you helping our Bulldogs prepare for a bright (and balanced!) financial future.

We are incredibly proud of our EPHS Robotics team! We wanted to share a glimpse into the action so you can see exactly how Reece, Austin, and Lydia are out-maneuvering the competition.

With a current rank of 3rd out of 29 in Columbiana County and 4th out of 51 in Mahoning, these three have earned their spot among the best!

Wish them luck as they compete at the CCCTC State Qualifier on Valentine’s Day!

We are thrilled to announce that the East Palestine School District has been awarded grant funding through the Ohio School Bus Safety Grant program!

Governor Mike DeWine and the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce announced $10 million in funding to improve student transportation across the state—and we are proud to be a recipient!

This funding will be used to modernize our existing fleet with critical safety upgrades, ensuring a safer commute for our students every day. Our students' journey to and from school is just as important as their time in the classroom. We are grateful for this support in keeping our Bulldogs safe on the road!

School counselors are the bridge between where a student is and where they want to be. They provide the tools for managing emotions, the skills for building relationships, and the roadmap for life after graduation. And so much more!

We want to extend a huge thank you to Mrs. Neider, Mrs. Sherry, and Mrs. Randolph for being that bridge for our students. Your dedication to the East Palestine community makes a lasting difference in the lives of our children every single day.

It's National School Counseling Week! Join us in saying thank you!
