Fall at EPHS marks the introduction of another class to the four year program which will end in the graduation of a new class. We hope that the fine class spirit which is formed during the freshman year will prevade throughout the next years of high school. Unity of spirit and goals provides the comradeship which fuses all members of the student body. This is the spirit which is truly representative of EPHS. May this class and each succeeding one maintain this integral part of student life. ROW I.
