EHS Activity Fair (Monday-Wednesday • Sept. 28-Oct. 2)
In an effort to get more students at EHS involved in activities, we are proud to present the EHS activity fair during all lunches. We currently have over 30 groups represented. The first purpose of the Activity Fair is to get more students involved by showing them the opportunities they have at EHS. Research has demonstrated that student involvement in co-curricular activities leads to stronger connections and success for students. The second purpose of the fair is to get more students involved with Homecoming. We are anticipating three very exciting days!!!
