East Penn highlights college‑planning night, theater seasons, athletics and early‑dismissal schedule
Summary
Superintendent Dr. Campbell updated the board on upcoming events: a post‑secondary planning night Sept. 25 at Emmaus High School featuring a PHEAA presenter and grade‑level breakouts; November theater productions across district schools; several fall teams' records; and an early dismissal Wednesday, Sept. 24.
Dr. Campbell told the East Penn board on Sept. 22 that Emmaus High School’s counseling office will host a post‑secondary planning night on Thursday, Sept. 25 at 6 p.m. A representative from the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency will discuss FAFSA, grants, loans and scholarships; grade‑level breakout sessions for high-school students are scheduled at 7:15 p.m. Campbell said copies of the presentation slides (but not video recordings) will be posted on high-school counseling websites for families who cannot attend.
Campbell also announced upcoming district theater productions in November at Emmaus High School, Iyer Middle School and Lower Macungie Middle School, and noted several fall athletics highlights: Emmaus field hockey coach Sue Butstavin recorded her 100th career win Sept. 13, and field hockey plus boys and girls cross country teams remained undefeated as of the report. The district’s printed 2025–26 calendars were distributed to families last week, and Campbell reminded the board that Wednesday, Sept. 24 will be an early-dismissal day (high school and middle schools at 11:00 a.m.; elementary schools at 12:30 p.m.).
Campbell closed by encouraging families to check school websites for ticket information and counseling resources.
