Softball and baseball fans will have a great concession menu this year thanks to a generous donation from the OASPE 593 Union. This union includes our bus drivers, paraprofessionals, secretaries, cafeteria and maintenance departments.
Before the season began, our coaches realized they needed some new equipment to continue to offer hot food at the field. They asked for donations of crockpots that staff may no longer be using, but our OASPE members stepped in and stepped it up! They provided them with 2 brand new extra large Crock Pots and a bread new microwave! Thank you OASPE 593 for supporting our athletes and our fans!
High School students are collecting items for the Emmaus Women and Family Homeless Shelter. Students may drop off the following items to Ms. Haney’s room this week. Students can contact Kaylee LeVan with questions.

Third graders have been diligently working on their multiplication facts and celebrated today with an ice cream sundae party! As they made their way up the multiplication fact tracker, they were awarded with a different part of the sundae. Initially, students were awarded with the bowl and spoon for basic facts. As facts increased in difficulty they earned their scoops of ice cream, syrup and cherry on top! As you can see, they were really excited!
This is a fantastic opportunity for students interested in manufacturing and engineering with Honda, while earning an Associate’s Degree through Edison State.
