Welcome Back!
EPS is ready! Our amazing team of educators has been busy setting up classrooms and offices, sending messages, collecting information, and preparing lessons in anticipation of the return of our wonderful students.
Everyone continues to work in overdrive to make this the best learning experience possible. We are grateful beyond measure that so many of our families have expressed support in their tremendous efforts and have had compassion and understanding for our professionals, knowing that every one of them is trying their very best for your children. Please take a moment to express your support if you have not. It is a wonderful and well-needed boost as we embark upon another fresh school year! We look forward to nurturing, teaching, challenging, and supporting every learner as we all grow and develop together.
We have welcomed over 50 new staff members! In a time of staffing shortages nationwide, we have been able to continue to add the best of the best to our team. Be sure to look for new faces in every building and in the central office as well.
At our staff gathering on August 30th, we were excited to congratulate and thank all of our staff members who have been faithfully serving the students of Easton for 25 years as well as those who have been with the Easton Public Schools for 30 or MORE. This year, our 25 year staff members include Karen Daly, Doug DePaulo, Maura Fine, Dan Garzoglio, Kristen Maffeo, and John Visnauskis. Dedicated staff with over 30 years with us include Rita Pastore, Meagan St. Martin, Margi Folan, Russ Meninno, Ken Flanagan, and Laney Clement-Holbrook who has been with EPS for OVER 50 years!! How many of these educators were you lucky enough to have when you were in school?? (Please don’t tell them I asked that!)
Please continue reading for some important updates for this school year, and, as always, please contact your Child(ren)’s school(s) or the administrative team at central office if we can be of assistance to your child(ren) and your family. We are thrilled to start this year with excitement and good health. Thank you for your continued support!
Sincerely,
Dr. Lisha Cabral
