We appreciate your cooperation as we implement these necessary adjustments!

A little birdie gave us some extra info for the Tournament of Roses Parade!

For the best possible sighting of Mrs. Mollenkopf and Mr. Zimmerman, watch KTLA 5 News' live stream at ktla.com for uninterrupted band coverage.
But you can also tune to NBC, ABC, Great American Family, Univision, and RFD TV.

The Band Director's Marching Band is expected at "TV Corner" around 12:30 PM, but tune in early to catch all the action!

Happy New Year, Bulldogs!

When you are enjoying the Tournament of Roses Parade on New Years Day, look for familiar faces. Our very own Band Directors, Mrs. Mollenkopf & Mr. Zimmerman, will be among 350 band directors from across the U.S. that will march in The Band Director's Marching Band. Way to go Mrs. Mollenkopf & Mr. Zimmerman, you make us proud!

Due to illnesses, this evening's game (12/30/2025) has been cancelled. Get healthy, Bulldogs!

Wishing our Bulldog Families a very Happy Holidays!

There's a lot of Christmas fun happening in Bulldog Country today!

Some of our elementary students enjoyed a special "Cookies and Crafts" event, hosted by the Project EP class from the high school. From decorating cookies to creating festive crafts, it was a blast! We love seeing our oldest students stepping up as leaders to inspire the next generation of Bulldogs.

Hey EPHS Class of 2026 - we need your senior pictures!
Your top 2 picks must be emailed to Mrs. Cunningham by February 6th!

Finish this memorable movie line “The best way to spread Christmas cheer…..” And our students have been doing just that as they have been busy visiting Christian House and Covington. Cast members of Hometown Holiday were able to perform some tunes from their recent show and Kindergarten sang their little hearts out to bring joy to residents.

Have you had a chance to check out the Bulldogs, who have been recognized for their excellence?

What a fantastic cultural lesson for our EPHS Spanish students! Today, Sra. Lerch's class traveled virtually to Peru, thanks to Natlingo. They had an up-close look at alpacas and llamas, learning what they eat, where they sleep, and how the Peruvian people rely on them. What a fun way to connect our Spanish students with the culture!

The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce and the Ohio PBIS Network have recognized both our elementary and high school for exceptional implementation of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS)!

Achieving this honor requires dedication to teaching and reinforcing positive behaviors consistently across all grade levels.

We are extremely proud to announce that our very own Coach Michael Demster has been named the Mahoning Valley Coaches Association Division VII Football Coach of the Year for 2025!

Congratulations on this major achievement!

We hope you have added Hometown Holiday to your "To-Do List" for the weekend! It will be a sure way to kick off the holiday season and spread some cheer!
