Academic Support at ECHS
We are well underway with the Spring Semester here at Early College High School. The college textbooks have been ordered and most students have received their books. If there are any students who have not received their books, please come to the office on Monday to have Mrs. Davisson or Mrs. Blanc check on the book's status.
The first high school grading period ends in three weeks, on February 18th. Students, please don't wait to get help if you need it. We offer school after-school Math support every Monday and Thursday from 3:00-4:00. We also offer peer tutoring on Wednesdays from 3:00-4:00 and during the school day on Fridays.
Solano College also provides tutoring support for college classes. Currently, tutoring is online but there will be in-person college tutoring starting back up at the end of February. Students, if you need extra help, we are here to support you. You can ask your high school teacher or professor for help, see your counselor Mrs. Mae, talk to your College Readiness teachers, or come and see me. We really want to see every student at ECHS succeed! Our goal is to help every student meet the A-G college entrance requirements (C or higher in every class).

Today was the finale of our week-long Mario Kart tournament. Congratulations to 11th grader, Nicholas Hernandez, for coming out on top in the finale today, he is our 2022 Mario Kart Champion!
