ECHS Club Rush Today at lunch we held our annual club rush.  Students from each club discussed the club activities and signed up new members.   Here is a description of each club: Academic Decathlon Academic Decathlon (Aca Deca) is a competitive academic club that meets every Tuesday at lunch.  It focuses on one subject or time period each year. This topic is split into seven basic areas: Art, Literature, Music, Economics, Math, Science, and Social Science.  At the end of the year, a test is taken on each of these areas, plus a test containing some information from each area. In addition, a speech and interview are conducted.  If your scores are high enough, you’ll be able to earn medals. This year, we’ll be focusing on health. Thus, if you’re interested in becoming a nurse, doctor or psychologist, this club will help boost your application with colleges, especially if you win a medal in the competition.

Orientation We really appreciate the support we have on campus from the Solano County Sheriffs.  We want to thank Lt.

The freshman arrived and took selfies with their mentors befo
