ECHS Parents and Community — please be advised that on August 17, 2022, Campus and District officials were alerted to a verbal threat against ECHS by a student. Law enforcement was immediately notified and the campus was secured. No weapons were found on campus and the threat was not deemed to be credible. Because this matter involves a student, the District is prohibited by federal law from disclosing additional information about the student or the investigation; however, please know that threats against our facilities, staff, and students are taken extremely seriously. Offenses of this nature by students are addressed to the fullest extent permitted by the Student Code of Conduct and state law.

The accountability ratings are in and we are celebrating! Congratulations to all our campuses on this great achievement. We are super proud of ECMS for their improvement to a C! The ratings are based on performance on state standardized tests; graduation rates; and college, career, and military readiness outcomes. The ratings examine student achievement, school progress, and whether districts and campuses are closing achievement gaps among various student groups. ECISD - B | ECHS - B | ECMS - C | Northside - A | Hutchins - B | Myatt - B
