ECHS Parents and Community — please be advised that on August 17, 2022, Campus and District officials were alerted to a verbal threat against ECHS by a student. Law enforcement was immediately notified and the campus was secured. No weapons were found on campus and the threat was not deemed to be credible. Because this matter involves a student, the District is prohibited by federal law from disclosing additional information about the student or the investigation; however, please know that threats against our facilities, staff, and students are taken extremely seriously. Offenses of this nature by students are addressed to the fullest extent permitted by the Student Code of Conduct and state law.
