Happy St. Patrick’s Day from the food services staff at East Palestine Schools!
We are looking for people to work track meets this upcoming season. We need more officials for all our track meet. This is due to officials choosing not to work meets because of Covid-19 concerns. We pay $20 a meet. Please contact Cindy Dunn @ Cindy.dunn@myepschools.org if interested. Refer to images for schedules.
Meet, Mr. Baker. Mr. Baker is a new member of our high school teaching staff this school year. Currently, Mr. Baker teaches Geometry and Algebra 2. This past winter, Mr. Baker coached our 7th grade boys basketball team to a runner-up finish in the EOAC. Previously, Mr. Baker taught in North Carolina but he is originally from the Mahoning Valley. Mr. Baker has been an excellent addition to our teaching staff. If you see him around the high school or basketball court, please say hello and welcome him to East Palestine Schools.

What did you learn in school today? This is a common question tossed around kitchen tables everywhere by parents and their children after a long day at work and school. In East Palestine Schools, we try our best to make that an easy question to answer for our students. Daily, our teachers post learning goals and agendas for students that specifically outlines what will be taught, how it will be taught, and what is coming up next. Next time you are tossing that age old question around the dinner table, if it is an East Palestine student, they should have an answer for you.
Reminder: There will be No School (in-person and remote learning) for CCCTC students on Friday, March 5.
