Etiwanda School District

We're thrilled to announce that AAPEAC is awarding a special recognition to Mrs. Fontamillas, who does an amazing job not only as the PTO president but also as a classroom aide. She works with so many students and families and makes it all look easy. East Heritage is an amazing place, in part thanks to her hard work!

Congratulations to all of our amazing eighth grade students who are moving on to high school! We're so proud of you and can't wait to see all the incredible things you'll accomplish in this next chapter. Keep shining bright!

Happy National Accounting Day to all the hardworking financial wizards in our school district! Your dedication ensures our schools run smoothly, budgets balance, and students thrive.

Jack J. is sending a high five to Ms. Meltreger for an incredible journey over the last 3 years! She not only has a heart of gold, but also patience, creativity, compassion, and a ‘we’ve got this’ attitude, which is hard to maintain in middle school. Ms. Mel has fostered a fabulous STARS program, first at Heritage Intermediate and now at Summit Intermediate. She will be greatly missed and never forgotten. Thanks to her perseverance and encouragement, Jack is reading, counting money, working the STARS coffee cart, and making friends all over campus. Thank you for being you, Ms. Mel!
