FSUSD College and Career


College and Career Spirit Week







Follow the FSUSD College and Career Instagram account at @fsusdcollegeandcareer.  Last  week there was a fun college scavenger hunt for students to complete.  Please contact College and Career Tech Danica Matthews at danicam@fsusd.org for any college and career questions.






Senior Project Pitch Panels

The seniors have been doing a wonderful job presenting their plans and ideas for their Senior Projects.  Every senior has to go in front of a panel composed of ECHS staff members, parents, and their peers.  Panel members listen and then have a chance to provide feedback.  The remaining panels will take place Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday next week from 10:00-12:00.  Parents, if you can join a panel session please email me at johnpi@fsusd.org and I'll send you the link.  Here are some pictures from last week.

















Student of the Week

10th grader Ayna Muftic is our ECHS Student of the Week.  Ayna is new to ECHS this year and has been doing an amazing job in all of her classes.  She is a member of  Leadership and has been working hard with the Newspaper Committee. Ayna's teachers reported that she has already made such a positive impact on the ECHS program.  

In addition to her high school classes, Ayna is taking Spanish 2 and Introduction to Public Speaking.  She has presented to the PTSO and our ECHS Parent Group.   She has also joined National Honor Society and is a member of the Academic Decathlon team.  Great job Ayna!

Keep Moving


Don't forget to keep moving!  We have to stay physically active, take a break from screens, and do what we can to stay healthy in this difficult time when we are stuck in our homes for so much time.  Mr. Spinelli's 1st period class had great class participation with their morning workout.  We love to see cameras on and students getting in a good workout!

ECHS Back to School Nights It's almost time for Back to School Night. We do things a little differently than other schools.  The ECHS team hosts 3 nights (based on grade level) and provides a presentation for parents and guardians. At the conclusion of the presentation, we open it up for families to ask individual questions to our staff members.  If you are unable to attend in person, recordings of the presentations will be available for families to view at their convenience.  Our first night is tomorrow 8/24 from 6:00-7:30pm for 9th-grade families.  Our 10th-grade night is on 8/26 and our 11th-12th grade night is on 8/31. *Masks are required for everyone inside all buildings at Solano College.   Math Support I had the pleasure of visiting Mrs. Freitas' Math class last week.  The students were doing a hands-on activity from our Math Carnegie curriculum and we work in small groups.   We have additional after-school support for students who need Math help every Monday and Thursda

 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
