ATHLETICS INFORMATION
EJHS Student-Athlete of the Week: Our first student-athlete of the week for the 23-24 school year goes to 7th-grade volleyball player Braylin Bentley. Braylin was nominated by her coaches for her leadership, positive attitude, and consistent effort on the court. She is also one of the hardest workers every week at Horsepower. On top of her athletic achievement, Braylin maintains straight A’s. Keep up the great work in the classroom and on the court!
