We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the generous community member who donated school memorabilia from the Class of 1954. These treasures are a wonderful addition to our school archives and help us preserve the rich history of our school.
While E.C.H.O. Charter School has proudly served students for over 28 years. We also celebrate and honor the story of our school that stretches back long before becoming a charter. Each donation helps us connect past and present, ensuring that future generations can appreciate the legacy of those who came before them.

Hello Families!
We’re excited to welcome students back on Monday, August 25. Please join us for Back‑to‑School Night on Tuesday, August 19 from 4–7 PM.
As we get closer to the new school year, now is the perfect time to help your child adjust to a healthy sleep schedule. Over the next couple of weeks, gradually move your child’s bedtime and wake‑up time earlier—about 10–15 minutes each day—so they’re fully on a school routine by Friday, August 22.
Why start early? A slow shift helps reset your child’s internal clock and avoids the “sleep shock” that happens with a sudden switch. In research-based studies, roughly 2 weeks of nightly adjustments allow students to smoothly transition and arrive at school well-rested.
Tips to help: start a wind‑down routine 20–30 min before bed, avoid screens before sleep, and expose them to bright light in the morning.
Thank you for helping your student begin the year energized and ready to learn!
