Educators are engaged and energized to bring another inspiring school year to students!
It's been a fantastic start to the week with our incredible teachers back in school! This afternoon, we’ll all come together for our official District Opening—the perfect way to kick off a great school year before we welcome students back on Monday.
Congratulations to all of our June School Board Resolution recipients! From impressive athletic accomplishments to academic honors at the state and national levels, it was a pleasure to recognize so many deserving Mountaineers at the final board meeting of the 2024–25 school year.
Have a rising 4th or 5th grade student? Join us for this event to learn the benefits of students' involvement in our music program and experience first-hand why EASD has been voted a 12-time Top Music Community.
Talk about a grand entrance! Three lucky Highland Elementary School students arrived at school in a fire truck this morning! This unforgettable ride was a silent auction experience from the EAEF gala — and it definitely made their Monday morning extra special. Thank you Pioneer Fire Co. & EAEF!
Our spring concerts were nothing short of amazing—if we do say so ourselves! Missed any or want to relive the magic? It’s the perfect weekend watch. Catch the full performances now on our Events YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/@ephrataareaschooldistric.../streams
Our second-graders are using their #EASDLifeReady creativity and collaboration skills to build prototypes of local community business as part of their annual Cornerstone project! Impressive work, Mountaineers!
Our 2nd graders are about to bring local businesses to life through their Cornerstone project prototypes! Today, architect Charlie Yohe inspired them with stories, insights, and the importance of #EASDLifeReady traits. Stay tuned for their creations next month!
During School Social Work Week, join us in thanking these incredible Mountaineers for their important work in our schools and communities!
Last night's School Board meeting was full of highlights! Directors approved full-day Kindergarten for 25-26, celebrated music and athletics achievements, highlighted Ag Mechanics and Student Tutoring, and honored "Be The E" staff. Plus, directors were recognized for School Board Recognition Month.
Our first year in the @inventitforward Invention Convention was a success! Out of 500+ PA entries, THREE EASD teams were named among the top 21 in the STATE! These students will compete on Feb. 12 for a spot in the June National Convention. Congrats & Good Luck, Mountaineers!
We are proud to again be a part of GIANT Feeding School Kids initiative. Since 2021, over $19,000 has been provided to help ensure all EASD students have adequate access to meals. Now – March 31 "round up at the register" to help support this worthy cause!
Nothing but smiles on Mountaineer Pride Fridays!

Welcome back, Mountaineers!
What a beautiful fall day for the annual 4th grade field trip to the Ephrata Cloister. Students will use what learned today to reflect upon and answer the question: How has PA changed over time?
As National School Lunch Week comes to an end, we are sending a loud SHOUT-OUT (and an "AHOY, MATEY") to our amazing food service staff! Thank you for all you do!
