I had the pleasure of visiting the ECHS Leadership meeting during lunch.  I continue to be so impressed by our students.  There was standing room only in classroom.  It is so important for students to get involved in extra activities and so many of our students are doing amazing things.  The students were discussing and planning ECHS activities, fundraisers, and homecoming.  The ECHS students will be joining their peers at RHS to put on Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Homecoming Skits during halftime at the RHS football game on Oct. 20th.  







Fridays are a little different around campus, as there aren't too many college classes taking place.  It feels like we have the place to ourselves at times on Fridays.  Here are a few pics that 11th grade ECHS Noah Singleton took during lunch.  


























Missy Vallejo from the College and Career Center at RHS came and spoke with the 12th grade students today during College Readiness.  She reviewed with the students valuable information on applying to college, scholarships, and financial aid.  The Fairfield-Suisun School District College Fair will be at Fairfield High School, September 26, from 5:30-8:00pm.  This will include a FAFSA workshop.











I am going to be out of town this weekend but I encourage students that are interested in Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to attend the Recruitment Fair this Sunday.  Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, Merchant Marine Academy, and Navy are scheduled to be there as well.  

I am looking forward to seeing all the 9th-10th grade parents next week for ECHS Parent Information night Wednesday at Rodriguez High School starting at 6:00 in the library.

 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.
