A Welcome Back Message from Superintendent Nicol.

THANK YOU to the FACILITIES and MAINTENANCE TEAMS!

THANK YOU to the FACILITIES and MAINTENANCE TEAMS!

The Team was recognized at the August meeting. The start of school couldn't be possible without the tireless work of the facilities team. All the schools are fully turned over and shining during the summer months to welcome our students and staff back on the first day not to mention all of the other projects that only the summer months allow! A big thank you goes out to the EPS Maintenance Department!
