El Campo ISD is currently serving students at Northside and High School through the CACFP Dinner Meals program. Beginning on October 1, 2025, students at Hutchins and El Campo Middle School will also be served before they leave for the day or attend their after-school programs. This program is provided at no cost to the student.

The goal of the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) is to improve and maintain the health and nutritional status of children and adults, promote development of good eating habits, and integrate nutritious food service with organized child and adult day care services.

Mrs. Hopper's Principles of Health Science class has been focusing on teamwork in the healthcare field. For a Fun Friday Activity, we took on the Marshmallow Challenge. In this challenge, students were assigned specific roles and had to collaborate as a team to build the tallest structure possible using only 20 spaghetti sticks, 1 yard of masking tape, 1 yard of yarn, and one marshmallow. This is one challenge the students won't forget!

September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month—a time to raise awareness, promote hope, and normalize help-seeking. Suicide affects millions of people every year, yet too many struggle in silence. Whether you’re facing challenges, supporting a friend or loved one, or are looking to help, your voice matters.

Youth Suicide Warning Signs

·         Expressing hopelessness about the future.

·         Displaying severe or overwhelming emotional pain or distress.

·         Increased physical symptoms—such as fatigue, headaches, and stomachaches—commonly associated with emotional distress.

·         Changing or withdrawing from social connections or situations.

·         Changes in sleep (increased or decreased).

·         Anger or hostility that seems out of character or out of context.

·         Recent increased agitation or irritability.

Text, call, or chat 988 for 24/7 judgment-free support.
