HELP EPHS JROTC PROTECT AGAINST COVID-19 •

Schools all over Texas and the country have been putting in place practices, policy, and physical barriers to try to minimize the prospect of transmission of the SARS Cv-2 virus among students, faculty, and staff.  Toward that end, Command Sergeant Major Elliott, the lead Army Instructor for EPHS JROTC, is preparing for when students return to the classroom, before or after the approval of an anti-COVID-19 vaccine.  CSM Elliott is attempting to equip each desk in the JROTC Building's two classrooms with an acrylic sneeze guard such at the 24" x 16"  guard depicted below.  Together with screening, social distancing, hand washing, hand sanitizer, face masks, sanitzing desks and sneeze guards, and minimal student and instructor movement within classrooms, the objective is to successfully defend against the virus.  

You can help with a donation to purchase sneeze shields for EPHS JROTC cadets.  Whether or not you were a JROTC cadet or a JROTC sponsor while at EPHS, make a donation of $5.00, $15.00, or more to help reduce the chance that cadets will become infected when in-person school attendance resumes.  Send your donation by check or money order (please do not send cash through the mail) to EPHS JROTC, ATTN:  Acrylic Shields, 800 E Schuster Ave, El Paso TX 79902.  The goal is to raise $630 to purcahse 21 shields; any surplus funds will be used for supplies of sanitizer and face masks.
