Return to Grounds
This page has been added to our website to better communication with students, parents, staff and community. This page will provide the necessary tools and procedures for our return to the school grounds in the near future. We encourage everyone to read the materials provided and understand what we are doing to make East Canton Schools as safe as possible for our students. We will continue to add and change content as it becomes available to our school.
