ECHS Alumni ECHS/SCC graduate Rico Pelcher visited College Readiness classes and spoke to the current ECHS students on Thursday.  Rico gave advice to the students and shared experiences from last semester at CSU Fullerton.  Rico also came and spoke with 8th graders and families Wednesday night during the Open House event.  Multiple other ECHS alumni came back to visit staff during our December teacher work day.  It is so great to see the alumni from last year's first graduating class and hear about how wonderful they are doing at the various four-year universities they attend.
