The Easton School Department wants to update their store of veterans’ names and addresses for their upcoming Veteran’s Day program.

The program’s date and time are yet to be determined, but details will be posted soon.  

If you are an Easton veteran and have not attended an Easton School Veteran’s Day program, or if you have changed your address, please call the school office at 488-7701 and leave your name and address or email your information to jill.barnes@eastonschools.org.

Alumni need you

Is there anyone out there who is interested in, or looking forward to, the 2020 all-school reunion?  If you would like this to happen, the alumni organization needs your help.  

There is a very limited crew who love our school and are working hard to make it happen, but we need you. There will be an informational meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 24, at 6 p.m. at the Easton Junior/Senior High School Library.  If you are interested in being involved in any way, please join us.  

This isn’t a commitment in any way, just come and find out what is being planned and all the areas we need help in.  We could use your fresh ideas and input and look forward to seeing you there. 

If you have any questions, email Peggy at arnett_peggy@yahoo.com or call 488-6904.
