Principal's Message
As the calendar has turned to December and the holiday season, it is hard to believe that the school year is almost half over. When we return from our Winter Vacation, Mid-Year Exams will are right around the corner. Information regarding the exam schedule and expectations for students will be sent home separately. There are many wonderful things taking place at EHHS both in and outside of the classroom. Please take the time to attend and support the students of EHHS at a concert, performance or athletic competition.
If you are looking for another way to stay on top everything that is happening at EHHS, please follow me on Twitter: @EH_CTPrincipal.
As always, should you ever have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly at everner@easthamptonct.org.

East Hampton Public School Goals
The Little Mermaid
The Belltown Drama Club will have auditions for our spring musical, The Little Mermaid, on Monday, December 16th from 2:30 - 5:30 in the high school auditorium. This production will once again feature students from both the high school and middle school and promises to be an exciting adventure for everyone involved. Students do not need to prepare anything for the auditions. Potential cast members will read from the script, learn and perform a short section of music from the show, as well as learn and perform a brief dance combination. All students who are interested in auditioning, but have not yet signed up at the high school, should see Mrs. Mansfield before Monday.
