ECHS 2025 Fall Semester Update
December 19th, 2025
As the semester comes to a close...
Greetings ECHS Families!
This semester is one for the books! We have loved getting to know our newest Owls and continuing to watch all of them blossom. Even if (when) they drive you crazy, remember that our kids made the difficult choice of academics over the offerings of a traditional high school and that is always to be commended. Please believe that they need this break, we all do. Rigorous programs also require rigorous rest and be assured, your students have earned it.
Holiday best wishes and blessings from ECHS. We are so glad you have all decided to be a part of this school and can't wait to start back up afresh in the Spring (after 2 weeks of rest, of course!). Teachers return January 5 and students on January 6. Remember that if your student attends classes at TJC (11th/12th graders) they do not need to attend ECHS on their TJC days until TJC starts up again on January 20th.
Ho, Ho, Hoot and Merry Christmas!
