Tiger Community: As another school year comes to a close, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the students, families, staff members, and community partners who make Ephrata Schools such a special place.

This year, we celebrated tremendous accomplishments across our district. We watched students learn, earn recognition, build confidence, serve their communities, and prepare for bright futures beyond graduation. Every success story reflects the collective effort of a community that believes in its children.

Like every school year, this one brought both opportunities and challenges. Together, we navigated change, overcame obstacles, and worked through difficult moments while keeping students at the center of our efforts. The resilience, dedication, and commitment demonstrated by our staff, families, and students throughout the year are worthy of recognition and appreciation.

Our staff members have worked tirelessly to support students, and our families have been essential partners every step of the way. Together, we have continued to create opportunities that help every student learn, grow, and succeed.

As summer begins, I hope our students enjoy a well-deserved break filled with fun, rest, and time with family and friends. Whether that means exploring the outdoors, participating in summer activities, or simply enjoying a slower pace, I encourage everyone to make the most of the season.

At the same time, we know learning never truly stops. Every book read, every new skill practiced, and every experience shared helps prepare our students for what comes next.

Thank you for your continued support of Ephrata Schools. We are proud of what we accomplished together this year, and we are excited for all that lies ahead.

On behalf of the Ephrata School District, I wish you a safe, enjoyable, and memorable summer.

TIGER PRIDE TODAY. TIGER PRIDE ALWAYS.
