Ms. Nafegar's 2nd grade class spent time learning about Ancient Greek Civilizations whose contributions can be seen in many areas of our lives today. Ms. Nafegar even dressed as a Greek Goddess to engage her students and get them excited about learning!
On the screen behind Ms. Nafegar, Pheidippides is beginning his run to Sparta to fight for the Athenian generals. The boys in the class are pretending to hold their spears since 7 year olds were of age to go to war. The girls in class were wiping their tears because they were sad that all the men and boys were leaving to go to war. These students are stretching their brains and learning so much this school year!
Good Luck Swim & Dive on your season! Check out their schedule and make plans to see them in action! https://core-docs.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/2854/ECISD/4731445/Swim.pdf
2024 Homecoming Queen and King Jillian Croix and Caleb Hudlin!
Homecoming Fun at Myatt! Go Ricebirds!
Advanced floral design students spent the day delivering homecoming mums and garters to Life Skills students at Myatt, Hutchins, Northside, Middle School, and High School campuses. Making the projects is always fun, but delivering them is even better! It was a joyful day for everyone involved!

Hey, ECMS!
It was a Fun Neon Day for Homecoming Week!
At Hutchins, students and teachers were shining BRIGHT!
Meanwhile, at Northside, Mrs. Taylor’s 4th graders dove into a Homecoming Escape Room adventure! They read passages and tackled questions like pros to break free. And let me tell you, they had a blast glowing under those black lights!
200 first year floral design students in Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Zahn’s classes constructed a 19 foot mega mum in honor of homecoming week. A special thanks to the Ag Mech students for cutting the 4ft plywood circle to make the top, the Derby Dolls for the pom poms, and Mr. Jeff Balcar and crew for getting it hung in the gym and then moving it to the football field for the game. It truly was a team effort and we have the best RICEBIRD team! Come see it in person on Friday at the 8:30 am pep rally! And, see behind the scene here: https://www.canva.com/design/DAGR3ajI7os/pS4I1Pw6_bafdIx-KrGRSA/watch?utm_content=DAGR3ajI7os&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=editor
ECMS Alert: Late yesterday afternoon, students reacted quickly and responsibly reporting to middle school staff and administration about a disturbing picture. The middle school responded quickly and involved the campus SRO and the El Campo Police Department. The threat was determined to be a hoax by the police. We have taken deep precautions to ensure student safety. We take all threats seriously and act on all reports. Please help us by being proactive and reporting threats directly to the school via our tipline or calling the school district directly rather than posting to social media. Our tipline informs us immediately regardless of time day or night. Thank you for your support in ensuring student safety and protecting our schools. Our tip line is "Say Something" and is located at www.ecisd.org.

First year floral design students have been working hard and having fun learning the steps of making homecoming mums. It involved lots of measuring, cutting, hot gluing, and learning a variety of braids. It takes about 7 days in class to complete all the steps. Check them out!
