Hey there, ECHS!

We are moving right along toward the end of the school year. This past month, several students participated in college and career readiness events and tours. ECHS is dedicated to providing multiple opportunities for students to explore their post-graduation options and discover their paths to future success, and I am thrilled to prepare our current 11th graders to be our first graduating class.  

In the meantime, I hope everyone enjoys a relaxing and rejuvenating spring break. When we return, students will take a deep dive into April celebrations. At ECS, we are rooted in sustainability and believe in giving back to our community. The month of April and its Earth Day Every Day celebrations are a moment for us as a school to reflect on our environmental processes, and recommit to sustainability. 

I look forward to sharing photos next month of our students participating in Earth Day festivities.

Kind Regards,

Dr. Abriana Leeper
