PARENTS ASSOCIATION

Under the leadership of Parent Association President Kristi Kincannon, EHS Moms planned for the 2020-21 School Year with the hope of being on campus and participating in normal parent activities. Unfortunately, that did not happen as planned. With that said, our moms had a positive attitude and worked on committees on and off campus. Mentor Moms helped onboard new students and parents. The Academic Pillar, Christmas Décor, Poinsettia Sale, and Faculty/Staff Appreciation committees had limited access onsite but were able to work and complete projects during the year. Our HANDS group helped with projects at home and delivered them back to EHS. Moms in Prayer met off campus, lifting our students, faculty, staff, parents, and the EHS community with thoughts and prayer.

The Parents Association continued to financially underwrite many projects such as the Family Directory, Knight Vision Sunglasses, Got Blue Spirit Shirts, New Student T-shirts, Faculty/Staff Appreciation, and the Auction. The new Chapel Video System, also received funding from this parents organization.

Even though their campus attendance was reduced, our moms participated and helped throughout the year when called upon. We thank them for their patience, understanding, work, and unwavering support during a difficult year. We know the EHS Community will once again enjoy their excitement, enthusiasm, and smiling faces on campus very soon.

“My favorite thing about being at EHS is the unmatched school spirit. I love how everyone does their own thing while still managing to support others.”

DADS CLUB

Under the guidance of President Ronnie Deyo, the EHS Dads Club provided event participation and financial underwriting to the EHS Community.

Although the number of events was reduced, those in attendance enjoyed fun, fellowship, and the opportunity to meet other dads. The annual Fall Sporting Clays event provided an early opportunity for our dads to meet as a group and enjoy an evening together. The Spring Golf Tournament had a record number of participants enjoying a full day of golf and fun at Wildcat Golf Club.

The Dads Club continued helping the school community through several areas of underwriting. Funding included Student/Faculty/Staff “Got Blue” T-shirts, Spirit Club, New Student T-shirts, Faculty/Staff Appreciation, Family Directory, College Counseling, Arts Pillar Opening Night/Cast Party’s events, Chapel Video Cameras, and a new Drone for the Communications Department.

The Dads Club’s Lead the Way Campaign participation continued as they made their final pledge payment for the new Field Hockey Field. They are on track to fulfill their pledge for the construction of the Simmons Field Press Box by 2023.

Since 1994, the Episcopal High School Dads Club has given back almost $2,200,000 to the EHS Community.

Even though 2020-21 was not a normal EHS year, our dads continued to show their support and passion for our community.
