Due to Spring Break, there will be no District Newsletter on Friday, April 18th.

A big Panther Proud congratulations to all of our West Creek Hills and East Pennsboro Elementary students for performing in your spring concerts this week! The level of musicianship and professionalism our students demonstrate on stage continues to impress and delight our EPASD community. Thank you to music teachers Kelly Krizan, Jordan Woodward, and Megan Michael for your incredible work and guidance with our students!

Our high school was excited to host the Junior Achievement STEM Summit on Tuesday, April 8th! All of our 9th grade students participated alongside students from Greenwood High School. The incredible Junior Achievement staff and volunteers provided a fun, educational day filled with learning about different careers in STEM from industry professionals. Students participated in 9 separate sections including: Manufacturing, Chemistry, Trades, Technology, Engineering, Biology, Environmental, Math, and Electrical. Thank you to our high school staff, especially Assistant Principal Dan Peck, for putting together this fantastic day for our students!
