Celebrating EPS Students
In times when we cannot be together as a community (at least not in the usual fashion), it is more important than ever to celebrate the great work of our students. This week, we celebrate the work of Allie ’23 for getting the 1st place award Allie for an essay she submitted to a writing/art/film contest sponsored by the Holocaust Center of Seattle. There were almost 600 applicants from 55 schools! She tied for 1st place for the 9th-12th grade argumentative writing category, writing a letter to Governor Inslee arguing in support of mandating Holocaust education in the school curriculum.
