Inspire Dreams Move Forward

 Today we had 43 ECHS 10th grade students participate in the Inspire Dreams Move Forward event.  Students got out into the community and visited local businesses for tours and a job shadow experience. 

 The ECHS students visited:
Alstom Transportation
City of Vacaville Utilities Department
Embry Riddle
Fairfield Suisun Sewer District
Mare Island Dry Dock
Meyer Corporation
MuriGenics
Northbay Regional Water
Paradise Valley Estates and Partnership Healthcare

There are a lot of pictures of the students at the different locations on Twitter at the hashtag #InspireDMF18

Upon returning to Rodriguez High School the students worked in groups and completed a reflective journal activity.  The students then got to speak to community leaders and ask them questions in their small groups.  The event closed with the students getting to hear from guest speaker Willam Wesley from Full Life Balance as well as Fairfield Mayor Harry Price, and FSUSD Superintendent Kris Corey.  

This was the first year of this event and we are excited for our 9th graders to get a chance to participate next year.

 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 open discussion, to help teens understand they are not alo

 Back to School Night Last night was Back to School Night for ECHS.  It was not our normal Back to School Night and we definitely missed seeing everyone in person.  Parents, if you missed it, everything was prerecorded and can be viewed at any time.  Please click the link to see the slideshow where all the video links are for each teacher.  After watching the videos, if you have any questions please email us.  We all have time dedicated for office hours each day and we are happy to set up phone or Google Meet appointments.   https://docs.google.com/ presentation/d/1TSIMNfZ2NmT2- AuhoAsQLAKURusnFZoorTAkqf1sVjM /edit?usp=sharing Susan Harris  susanharr@fsusd.org Mae Valles  maev@fsusd.org Shannon Freitas  shannonf@fsusd.org Stephanie Krutz  stephaniek@fsusd.org Melissa Nance  melissan@fsusd.org Shelly Pratt  shellyp@fsusd.org Karen Smith  kareng@fsusd.org Mark Spinelli  marksp@fsusd.org Lisa Turgeon-Staggs  lisat@fsusd.org Quinten Voyce  quintenv@fsusd.org Pam Williamson  pamwi@fsusd.org
