• Superintendent Update (9/11/2019)

   

  Dear families,

  I wanted to share a letter the School Committee recently received. We are proud of the work our faculty and staff have embarked upon over the last two years, it has helped us grow and become a more reflective community. Addressing issues around race, diversity and equity are ongoing challenges that many communities face, and I applaud our staff for the work they have undertaken to make EHS a better school.

  Regards, Allison LeClair
