That being stated, acknowledging the many educational and emotional health benefits of scholastic athletics, we have made the decision to move forward cautiously with Ewing High School’s participation in NJSIAA’s winter interscholastic sports season.

SENIOR STANDOUTS LEAD EHS FIELD HOCKEY

Under the leadership of the Class of 2021’s Rachel Messina, Elisa Davila and Monica Wang, the young and enthusiastic squad had the opportunity to represent their school and compete against their county counterparts.
