Get Involved at Espanola High School!

Some of the greatest memories of high school involve activities outside of the classroom.
At Espanola High School, we encourage students to get involved in school life.

Breakfast Program

Espanola High School is proud to offer a morning breakfast program open to all students. This successful program has been in operation since the year 2000 and last year served over 5000 nutritious breakfasts to students.

Espanola High School believes a student can function more successfully in school with a provided breakfast and be actively involved in the school community. The program is funded primarily by Better Beginnings, Better Futures and has also received support from the generosity of local businesses. The program is coordinated by teacher and community volunteers and is always looking for more support.

If you would like to volunteer or contribute to this worthwhile program please call the high school at 705+-869-1590.

Dungeons and Dragons Club

Dungeons and Dragons is an imaginative role-playing game in which players design characters and set out on quests.

Our club is highly creative, inclusive, and fun.

Sessions are held on Thursdays, except for the first Thursday of each month, in room E-219 upstairs.

For more information, ask Mr. Trowbridge, our French/English teacher.

Homework Club

Attention all students who would like a place to do homework or get help with school work from your teachers!

All students are welcome every Thursday between 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm in the Library.

Please sign up for the late bus before the end of lunch.

Junior and Senior Bands

Who We Are

Espanola High School runs a jazz based music program which includes the following instruments: Alto Sax, Tenor Sax, Baritone Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, Electric Guitar, Electric Bass, Piano and Drum Set.

Grade nine students come from a number of different backgrounds and need no prior musical training to take music at EHS. Those who have taken music previously or have some experience with private lessons may choose to learn a new instrument or continue with what they already play and develop further as a musician.

We offer music all through high school and an extra curricular activity. The junior jazz band is made up of students from Grade 9 and 10 and is offered after school for a credit. We play more challenging music than you would see in the average Grade 9 setting and practice once a week after school.

The Senior jazz band is made up of Grade 11 and 12 students and is offered after school for a credit. The music is more difficult and the expectations of knowing your music are much greater for the senior band.

What We Do

The bands, and sometimes the music classes, participate in all sorts of events outside of class and rehearsal. They attend concerts and musicals to learn what it is like to play professionally, go to competitions and trips, and perform our own concerts for the community.

Each year the band members have the opportunity to travel on a 4 day trip. This year we will be going to Cleveland. In the past the band has travelled to such places as New York, Montreal, and Chicago.

Yearbook Club

The EHS Yearbook Club meets regularly throughout the school year, focusing on creating a dynamic yearbook that showcases the students and staff at EHS. The yearbook captures the memories made throughout the year, for all grades. Whether it’s sports tournaments, field trips, spirit days, club achievements or students hanging out with their friends in the cafeteria, the Yearbook Club photographers are there to immortalize these events.

Club members can choose from a variety of tasks, such as selling advertising space to local merchants, taking photos, counting surveys, and working on creating the yearbook pages.

New members are always welcome.
