In an abundance of caution and the safety of students and staff in the forefront of our decisions, El Campo ISD will close on Tuesday, January 21. This closure will include all school activities.
More information regarding Wednesday will be forthcoming. Please stay safe and continue to monitor our school information. We will use phone, text, and email, along with our website and social media to communicate.

Good Friday afternoon,
I am certain all of us are aware of the National Weather Service forecast of a potential winter storm arriving in the Gulf Coast area late Monday evening and continuing into Tuesday and Wednesday.
Although I will monitor the events throughout the weekend and may make a decision anywhere along the way, I will make a decision no later than mid-afternoon on Monday relating to Tuesday.
Please stay safe and make sure your Skyward contact information is up to date. The district will utilize a phone call, email, and text to communicate with individuals, and we also will post information on our website (ecisd.org), and through social media (Twitter or "X", Facebook, & Instagram).

Students at Hutchins read the story "How to Catch the Gingerbread Man" and then created their own traps. Everyone did a great job and tapped their Gingerbread Man!

After learning about how Julius Caesar was one of Rome's most influential leaders, 3rd grade students explored his character to determine how he could have been viewed as both a hero and a traitor to Romans. They analyzed all of the information they learned to take a position and create a plan to debate their position. Ms. Stock's class presented their ideas on how he could be portrayed as a hero, while Ms. Molina's class presented their arguments as to why they believed he was a traitor. See them here:
