STEP is the Parent Organization for Emmaus High School in Emmaus, PA

STEP is a volunteer group of parents in East Penn that sponsors activities to encourage our youth to have fun without the use of drugs or alcohol. Members of STEP include parents, teachers, administrators and citizens of East Penn School District.

In addition to organizing the SENIOR AFTERBALL, our group of volunteers teams with the EHS Student Government Association for the freshmen orientation, homecoming dance, snowball dance, and the EHS Final Fling. These events provide a wonderful opportunity for parent volunteers to participate at school wide events.

The Afterball is the post prom party, held at EHS, designed to be a safe, fun, alcohol-free alternative for students that want to continue their celebration into the night. It is open to all seniors (and their prom guests), even if they do not attend the prom. The students are entertained with food, music, games, and prize raffles.

The Afterball is funded by donations and run entirely by volunteers.
