Please join us at E.C.H.O. Charter School for "Back to School Night" on Tuesday August 19th from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Bring your students to meet their teachers and see their classrooms. Parents/Guardians can also complete registration for their student for the fall. We will also be serving hotdogs, chips, and baked beans. A free-will donation is appreciated.
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!
