Welcome Letter – EHS PTA

Dear Eastchester Families,

Welcome back to school! We hope that it was a restful and healthy summer. We are excited to welcome Chris Welsh as our new EHS principal, as well as Ms. Glindmyer in her new role as assistant principal. As a PTA we have been working hard to get things up and running for the new year. Here are some things to keep in mind:

Please join the PTA!

The PTA supports numerous programs in the school, such as the 9th grade orientation, and the therapy dog program.  As a reminder, only families who have been members for 4 years are eligible for PTA 12th grade scholarships.
