A third assistant principal - Mrs. Mary Wildasin - has joined the administrative team at Ephrata High School. As enrollment at Ephrata High School is nearing an all-time high, a third assistant principal will allow for greater support to meet student needs, whether related to special education, attendance interventions, or behavioral incidents.
“Mrs. Wildasin was clearly a good fit to join our administrative team. Her views on student learning and classroom management, as well has her experience with a multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS), all aligned with our current practices and goals,” shared EHS Principal Dr. Scott Galen.
“Additionally, all references for Mrs. Wildasin spoke highly of her student-centered values and ability to build relationships. Her overall experience positively impacting students’ educational journeys and interacting with school families will provide a valued perspective at EHS and EASD,” he concluded.
