The EPSS community is a vibrant and diverse group of students, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, coaches, and alumni who support the APOSA of the school.
We believe the members of our community are happiest when they know and are allowed to become active partners in the education of our children and get to know very well what our children should gain from the education. Many parents think that sending their children to school is all that is needed but that is not true. Parents prepare their children for failure when they don’t get involved in their education. Children do very well in education when they know their parents show much interest in their schooling. Getting involved with EPSS is a way to show your support, share your talents and influence our community for good and encourage our students to go the extra mile. It is also a way to help our school build leaders for tomorrow.
We offer different ways or opportunities for you to volunteer; explore the options below and let us know how you would like to make an impact at The EPSS through the gift of time. Thanks for joining EPSS to make a difference. We Are One and together we can do better in educating our children.

Parents to Students Education Network
Parents work the Athletic Office by focusing on athlete safety and promoting a conductive environment that allows students to participate in sports that are good for future growth. Help the Athletic Office with fundraising activities to advance the school sports.
Parents & Teachers Network
The Parents & Teachers Network (PTN) promotes a strong, integrated and diverse community of parents, faculty, staff and students to enhance the education of our children. PTN seeks to foster a warm, welcoming and inclusive community for all EPSS families. PTN provides opportunities for selected parents to travel to the neighboring countries for a chance to experience the neighboring schools and come to make comparisons and determine what is missing. It also gives parents a chance to connect with one another and make positive contributions through volunteerism in the areas of their expertise.
Parent Advancement Network
PAT members work closely with the office of Program and Development Director to build strong relationships with parents and keep well informed about school changes, encouraging parents to be more involved and invested in the school development.
