NHS and Student Council are partnering to host the first blood drive of the school year in honor of Amelia Lyford. Donors must be at least 16 years old. The drive will be on Wednesday, August 28 in the ECHS practice gym from 9am-3pm. Amelia continues to progress in her courageous battle with leukemia and makes more memories with her family and friends because of HEROS like YOU. Amelia has received multiple transfusions at Texas Children's Hospital as part of her treatment. Mrs. Lyford, one of our teachers, and Amelia's family encourage you to join us through your Commit for Life donation to make a difference for patients. Schedule your appointment today! https://www.commitforlife.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/369950
Congratulations to Corbin Garcia on his 1st place finish at the El Campo Cross Country Meet today at Legacy Fields!
The men's team finished in 3rd! And the Ladybirds did great, too!
Parents and guardians, some schools lost power for approximately 30 minutes today during the lunch time. An accident on Mechanic Street created the loss of power. The lunchroom remained able to serve food. Students were safe. Power is back on and our phone service should be working again after the brief outage.

Students in the Education and Training Program read "Our School is a Family" and created social contracts. They learned that it is important to embrace all school staff and students and to help cultivate a positive school community. It was a great day to be a future RICEBIRD educator!
Hey ECHS!
Check out this new program where parents and students can upload their yearbook-worthy photos for the yearbook staff to use. And, people in the pictures can be tagged which helps with identification. Get to uploading today!

Parents and their 9th Graders,
We are excited to welcome you all to freshman orientation tomorrow. This is not a come-and-go event. Below you will find the order of events for orientation.
*Students will check in at tables by alpha split in the courtyard in front of A building from 1:00-1:30. Keep in mind it will take the full 30 minutes to check in the whole 9th-grade class, so please do not arrive at 1:30.
*Parents and students will report to the auditorium after they have checked in for a welcome by ECHS Principal, Mr. Fleener to begin at 1:30.
*Following the welcome, students will begin rotations. There will be four rotations at 20 minutes each:
- Library – Chromebook checkout
- Cafeteria – Schedule Pick-up
- SLH – Student Life
- Campus Tours
*Parents will remain in the auditorium where our technology professional will deliver a presentation on accessing skyward and helping parents get connected. Students may leave after they have completed their last rotation.
***Parents, if you cannot attend, please sign a Chromebook Form you received by email and send it with your child. You may also sign and email the form to lmorton@ricebirds.net *** Please print legibly, so she knows which student the form belongs to. - ECHS Team

Ms. Kacer and eight students participated in a two-day Mini Med camp at Texas A&M University this summer.
On Day 1, they visited the health schools on campus, attended a hands-only CPR class, practiced suturing, and had a night out at the Texas A&M Rec center.
Day 2 involved hands-on training with a sonograph and creating a clay model to learn about the heart's anatomy. The camp concluded with a panel discussion featuring healthcare professionals and students from various fields like pharmacy, nursing, dentistry, medical school, admissions, and an MD.
We are so thankful to @Texas A&M University for inviting us to attend!
