PAWSITIVE POINTS: Did you know that Bulldog PRIDE has been a Pre-K to 12 central theme that has run throughout all of our strategic planning and events in the district the past 5 years. We asked a group of high school students what being a Bulldog means to them. This student-produced video was their answer. "Why EP Schools - WHY NOT?" Link to Video: https://youtu.be/JmUkTLf4WyY

Yesterday afternoon, the middle school hosted the Energy Agents, which is an educational program sponsored by Frist Energy. During their program, the Energy Agents taught students about energy, energy conservation, and electricity. This program was at no cost to the school and each student received a free energy conservation kit to take home. The kit included energy efficient light bulbs, night lights, power strip, and more. Thank you First Energy!
