If you have any questions regarding our athletics program, please feel free to drop an e-mail.
Also make sure you check out our school website for dates and links regarding our Coral Night, Back to School Night, and Open House where you will have the opportunity to meet your coaches (a majority are teachers here). During that time, there will be informational booths for the different sports offered here at EHMS and copies of the physical and permission slip forms for you to take home, get completed by a physician, and then bring back to Mr. Corpuz in room MK-8 to be kept on file for the school year. Once your paperwork is on file, you are eligible to try out for all the sports offered that season as long you have a 2.0 GPA that semester prior to the tryouts. In addition, all parents/guardians and those players who made the team must attend a mandatory meeting with the Athletic Director and their coaches during the sports in season to discuss the school's expectations of a scholar athlete.

Exceptions may be made to the above requirements by a probation committee when health, physical, mental disadvantages, or other extenuating and unusual circumstances exist.
