1st Day of School

The new clothes, new hairdos, a clean school and lots of smiles - that can only mean one thing - The First Day of School!

The start of the 2011 - 2012 school year began in the cafeteria and gym.  We all gathered in grade levels and then waved goodbye to moms, dads, guardians and other relatives as we started our day.  Here are some pictures of this great event.

Thank you to all who helped today.

Online Calendar


District Switches to Online Calendar

Beginning with the 2011-2012 school year, an online calendar will replace the hard-copy calendar previously published by the District. The online calendar will include District, building, athletic, and community events happening in District buildings.



To view the calendar, click on the Events Calendar tab on the left side of the District homepage at www.easdpa.org. View all events or select a building from the drop down menu at the top of the page.



The online calendar will include more events than were included in the hard-copy calendar and will be updated regularly to include new events and changes made to previously scheduled events. Community members who do not have access to the internet can stop into the District Office to pick up a hard copy of the online calendar. The District Office is open weekdays from 7:30 AM until 4:30 PM.

Welcome To A New Year

Hello everyone!

We are only a few short weeks from the start of the 2011-2012 school year.  I am excited to see the building full of children and life again!  I am looking forward to sharing more information and news with you, in a timely manner, through this blog.  Here are the first few items....

On August 26th we will have the kindergarten orientation.  We will have one session from 8:30 - 9:30 and 9:45 and 10:45.

On August 26th we will have an open-house at Highland.  This is a chance for your children to learn where their classrooms are and to take a look around the building.  The teachers will not be present and the classrooms will be locked.   The open-house will run from 5PM to 7 PM.

The first day of school is August 29th.  As the students arrive, they will be directed to the gym and cafeteria where they will meet their teacher.  You are welcome to join your children in the gym before they start their day.


See you soon!

Mr. Deemer
