Our EPIC House System

The Five Houses

At Crab Orchard Elementary, we feature five Houses--our learning and leadership communities for students.  Each House has unique properties such as its own color, symbols, nation of heritage, creature mascot, and more.  Over time, each House will continue to take on its own values and personality.
