ECHS

The energy was live as ECHS senior volleyball players took on Needville last Thursday. We had a crowd of Derby Dolls, Cheerleaders, and our very own ESPN commentators to lead the student section in cheering for our ladybirds. Let's make tonight's game just as live and show up in full support of our senior ladybirds as they take on Harmony at 6:00PM this evening in the Ricebird gym.

Students: If you are struggling in an advanced or AP class, you need to see your counselor as soon as possible to explore schedule change options. The 9 weeks ends this week on Thursday, October 8th. The next drop date will be the completion of the semester.
