Look at all these students from Hutchins who were honored at their grade level assemblies on Monday! They were chosen by their peers and teachers as Character Champions for the pillar of Caring!
ECMS Parents and Guardians: On Monday, April 8, 2024, we will be allowing students to view the very rare full solar eclipse with the aid of protective eyewear. The Science teachers have been preparing students for the brief viewing, helping them to understand not only the rotational positions of the Earth, Moon, and Sun but also the importance of using protective gear, as in all “lab” activities. Our area of Texas will not have the most optimal view but we will have partial viewing opportunities, up to 95% totality, between 12:30 pm and 1:30 pm as long as there is limited cloud cover. The student viewing will last about 1 minute as they are taken outside and monitored in small class size groups and then returned to the building. We will be suspending all other outside activities for the day: PE, Athletics, and lunch recess will be conducted inside.
In the event that you would prefer your child not participate in the viewing, please email your child’s science teacher or call the front office by Friday, April 5. Please give your child’s name and grade to the receptionist. We also hope that you take the opportunity to speak with your child about the solar eclipse and the safety required to enjoy the viewing, which will not happen again until August 2044. Thank you.
