Important Dates

With no school on Labor Day, we will have a special schedule for Tuesday, 9/5/17. We will use the Friday class schedule that day to make sure we get every class in for the week.  Students who have a conflicting college class will need to check in with their high school teachers to get the work, but their absence will be excused.

Here is the schedule for Tuesday Sept. 5th.

1st Period 8:00 – 8:50am
3rd Period 9:00 – 9:50am
5th Period 10:00 – 10:50am
2nd Period 11:00 – 11:50am
Lunch 11:50 – 12:50pm
4th Period 1:00 – 1:50pm
6th Period 2:00 – 2:50pm




Early College does not have a traditional Back-to-School Night as other schools in the district do, but we will have Parent Information Nights next month.

9th-10th grade Information night will be on Wednesday, Sept. 13th, at 6:00 at Rodriguez High School in the library.

11th-12th grade Information night will be on Wednesday, Sept. 20th, at 6:00 at Rodriguez High School in the library.

The ECHS teachers and School Counselor, Mae Valles will be there.  I will be sending out more information about both nights soon.






I had the pleasure of visiting Mr. Voyce's Chemistry class today with Kristen Witt, Director of Secondary Education.  Students were engaged in an activity that helped them recognize patterns similar to what they will be working on with the Periodic Table.









This was another great week here at Early College!  It seems the students have settled in and are working hard.  Every student should have all their college textbooks and materials by now.  If there any issues please let me know.  Have a wonderful weekend!

 Power Outage Friday morning sure was interesting at ECHS!  We went from extremely hot weather earlier in the week to a colder Friday morning with some rain, lightning, and thunder.  We were without power on parts of the campus for the zero period, first period, and part of the 3rd period.  We did our best by moving a couple classes into the cafeteria, using natural light, and placing emergency flashlight lanterns in classrooms.  I really appreciate the patience and flexibility demonstrated by our staff and students.   National Suicide Prevention Day Friday was National Suicide Prevention Day.  Daily Reminder cards were passed out to students with positive messages.  Students and staff also wore teal and purple to show support.   We are very excited to announce that we will be bringing Kaiser Permanente's Ghosted program to ECHS for the first time later this semester.  Ghosted is a program that reduces stigma and encourages ope...

Class of 2019 On Thursday many of the seniors wore shirts from the colleges they will be attending in the fall.  We are so proud of all the seniors for all their hard work in the program! Senior Project Showcase Today was our second annual ECHS Senior Project Showcase.  The seniors worked all year on their projects and today they spent the day sharing what they did with the younger ECHS students, parents, teachers, and community members.  The students did an excellent job presenting their work!  If you weren't able to make it out here is brief summary of each student's project.
