This year’s Eighth Grade Curriculum Night is on Tuesday, December 9. On this evening eighth grade students and parents are invited to come to the high school to learn about the curricular offerings at EPHS. The evening will begin at 6:00 pm with a brief social in the cafeteria that highlights our extra curricular activities. Mr. Jennings will then address parents briefly in the auditorium before dismissing them to each departmental area at 6:40 pm. The parents and students will be broken up into groups and will rotate through a schedule so everyone will have an opportunity to meet with each academic department. We look forward to seeing you there.
