Proposition A funds upgrades and renovations to CTE areas. Additional classroom space could allow for increased student participation in programs such as culinary, welding, carpentry, auto tech, and cosmetology. Take a look at what some of these spaces could look like. Learn more at https://www.ecisd.org/bond2025

Check out what Stawbees shared about Mrs. Guthrie's STEM students from ECMS and their creations!
El Campo High School, with original construction from 1953, consists of 14 separate buildings that are not connected to each other. Students move between classes by walking outside, often exposed to rain and weather conditions. More than 50% of classrooms are undersized and do not meet TEA standards.
Proposition A includes a new academic wing with 14 classrooms, along with special education and life skills classrooms. Prop A would create more space for fine arts students and doubles the cafeteria capacity to serve 500 students. Learn more at https://www.ecisd.org/bond2025

#APWeek25
Mrs. Toya Matthews, Music Teacher from Hutchins Elementary, was invited to bring some students to perform again this year for Senior Citizen Day at the Wharton County Youth Fair. Second-grade students from Mrs. Prihoda and Ms. Rodriguez’s classes entertained everyone with their performance of country and western songs and lines dances that they had recently performed for their parents in their Music program.
