Dear Families,
I am very excited for the start of the 2025-2026 school year! I hope everyone has had some time to relax and recharge this summer! I am thrilled to be leading such an amazing staff and student body. I am entering my 33rd year in education and have worked at White Marsh Elementary, Tilghman Elementary, Easton Middle and Easton Elementary.
My husband and I have 4 children, who are all grown. He is the current principal of White Marsh Elementary. When we are not at school, we enjoy cooking together and spending time at the beach.
I am looking forward to being your partner in educating your child!
Sincerely,
Dr. Devaric

Mrs. Bridget Harper class of 2027
Hi everyone! I’m excited to be starting my 6th year at Easton High and my 21st year in education. Time really does fly.
Before coming to EHS, I taught at Easton Elementary and Sandy Hill. I also worked as a math coach at EES, where I had the chance to support both students and teachers.
Education has always been a big part of my life. Both of my parents were teachers, and now my husband and I are continuing that tradition. We’re proud to be an education family. We have two amazing kids. Our daughter is an EHS graduate and is now off in college, and our son will be starting his 9th grade year right here at EHS.
I’m looking forward to another great school year filled with growth, connection, and lots of Warrior pride. Let’s make it a good one!
Mr. Bagshaw, Classes of 2026 & 2027
Hello Easton High families! I’m excited and proud to serve as one of the assistant principals at Easton High School. After retiring from my first career, I returned to college and earned my bachelor’s degree in History and master’s in Educational Leadership from Salisbury University. I began my teaching career at Easton Middle School as a social studies teacher before making the transition to Easton High last year. I’m thrilled to continue working with our amazing students, staff, and families as we kick off another exciting school year.
When not at school, my wife and I stay busy keeping up with our three children and our rather large goldendoodle, Lincoln. I look forward to supporting our students as they grow academically and personally, and I’m excited to be part of a school community that values excellence, relationships, and opportunities for all.
Mrs. Tilghman, Class of 2028
Greetings EHS Community!
I’m excited to return to Easton High School as Assistant Principal after spending my entire career proudly serving within Talbot County Public Schools. Before this year, I served as a math and computer science teacher at EHS, then transitioned to a district-level role as the Blueprint Implementation Coordinator while also serving as the Curriculum Supervisor for Gifted and Talented Education and Grades 7–12 Mathematics. I am thrilled at the opportunity to bring the perspectives gained from these experiences to EHS.
If I'm not at EHS, you’ll most likely find me spending quality time with my husband and our two dogs. I look forward to working alongside students, families, and staff this year! GO WARRIORS!

Mr. Strickland, Class of 2029
Good day to all and Happy 2025-2026 School Year!
I am super excited to serve as the Assistant Principal at EHS for the Class of 2029!
I come to EHS with TCPS experience as a middle school math teacher at Easton Middle School, as well as the Assistant Principal at St. Michaels Middle High School from 2018-2023. For the past 2 years I had the privilege of being on staff for the Governor's Workforce Development Board for the State of Maryland where I had the opportunity to visit and study CTE programming and career-connected learning across this great state. That new perspective inspired me to return TCPS with the renewed focus on student success post-secondary and how EHS can create a space where that success is fostered and pushed forward.
My wife serves in TCPS, too, as the principal of Tilghman Elementary School and we have 2 daughters that attend St. Michaels Elementary School. LET'S GO WARRIORS!

Ms. Puma, Community School Program Manager
What is a Community School, you ask?
Every child should feel safe, nurtured, challenged, and inspired at school and have a sense of possibility.
Community schools are a long-term strategy for student success. They surround children with the academics, social and emotional learning, and family supports they need to learn and grow.
All children and communities deserve community schools, designed around the innate strengths and needs of the community.
Our first step is surveying all stakeholders. Stay tuned for more information!

Student Drop off
In an effort to make the process of morning drop-off at Easton High School safer for our students, we are requesting that parents and students adhere to the following traffic related patterns:
· Student drop-off should only take place on the school side of Mecklenburg Avenue or in the staff parking lot loop as designated on the attached map.
· The traffic pattern in the staff parking lot area will travel in one direction (see attached map) during the morning drop-off time frame, which is 7:30-7:45AM.
· Street parking will not be permitted in the drop-off area
· When you pull up to drop your child off, please PULL ALL THE WAY UP!
IMPORTANT: Please do not turn on Decatur Place, stop, and drop your child off in the middle of the street. This is unsafe and illegal. PLEASE SEE BELOW-STUDENTS MAY ONLY BE DROPPED OFF IN THE YELLOW AND GREEN ZONES. Please help us keep everyone safe!
Although there will be staff directing traffic, delay during the drop-off process can occur, so please plan accordingly. Students must be in homeroom by 7:45 each morning.
New this year! The side of Mecklenburg opposite of EHS (red curb in photo) is designated residential parking only. Students, parents, and visitors may not park there Monday-Friday from 7:00 AM-5:00 PM.
Thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Toni Hall, School Manager, at (410) 822-4180.
