Thank you to everyone who donated to the PSO!
Funds raised will be used to support the PSO 2018/19 grant program. Already this year, we have helped fund the after-school tutoring programs, upcoming EWHS College Night, new library books and support for the counseling department. Last year, we helped purchase new tools for the Robotics Club, a camera for the school newspaper and clothes for the student closet. All funds raised are used to support EWHS students and staff.
