Ephrata High School -

The December school board reorganization meeting included District Justice Tony Russell administering the Oath of Office to newly elected and reelected officers. We welcome Jason Breckbill and thank all board members for their service to our students, staff and community.

These students participated in the six-week Attollo Recruit program, meeting before school from 5:30 – 7:00 AM three times a week! They focused on Six Pillars – Strong Mind, Competition, Resiliency, Accountability, Sacrifice, and Finishing Strong. Students set individualized plans of action and can NOW also solve the Rubiks Cube in under two minutes. IMPRESSIVE! By the end of the six weeks, students have shared they feel empowered by their hard work and dedication and “feel like they can accomplish anything.”

FANTASTIC! Congrats, Mary! #MountsPride #EASDLifeReady
