"I wish that there were scientists in the school so we could do science and show our parents how good we are."
Get Involved with EPACS
This school was built around the belief that every child deserves a chance at his dream of going to college. We are dedicated to instilling in our students a love of learning and a sense of open opportunities in their future by providing quality education, personalized attention and extra curricular programs — but these aspirations come at a cost of above state funding levels. Neighboring districts in Silicon Valley receive up to twice more funding per pupil, and EPACS relies heavily on private donations and grants to supplement funding it receives from the state. Most of our funding for extra curricular activities, site improvements — and even books — comes from personal donations and corporate sponsorships.

We always welcome volunteers — and greatly appreciate their eagerness to help. Even if you have an hour to spare, consider becoming a volunteer and helping one child at a time to achieve their dream of going to college.
