ECHS Jrs and Srs.
Tomorrow is your last "free time" until the end of the semester. M/W students must attend ECHS classes or be on a school
sponsored field trip tomorrow morning and vice versa for T/Th students. If you are confused, email amanda.hortman@tylerisd.org
Please be responsible and be where you are supposed to be.
Stay tuned for next week's schedule.
ECHS: Students if you have anything saved on the hard drive of your HP laptop you will want to back it up and save it somewhere else as you will lose anything saved directly to the HP laptops. Save to a USB or your Google Drive if you have documents/files you may want in the future. Bring your chargers when you swap laptops or you will be charged $30 for any chargers not returned.
ECHS: Please bring your school issued HP laptop and CHARGER tomorrow, Wednesday, January 11th. We will be issuing you new Chromebooks if you have both your old computer and charger. ALL HP laptops and chargers need to be returned to campus this week. If you use your own device please disregard this message after reminding your friends to bring theirs.
ECHS has been visiting schools to inform 8th & 9th graders of the opportunity for FREE college. Here were some seniors speaking to Birdwell students. Apply now: https://forms.gle/m4US5eEkndBoEJeL7

Owls! Tomorrow everyone returns! Yes, Juniors and Seniors as well! Everyone will receive their schedules from their advisory teachers tomorrow. YOU NEED TO CHECK AND MAKE SURE THAT YOUR TJC (in Apache Access) AND ECHS SCHEDULES MATCH UP. If you see a problem, ask your advisory teacher for an orange "schedule change request" form. Fill it out and place it in Mrs. Standifer's box. You do not need to come and find her, she will find you and assess the issue.
Looking forward to seeing you all! #watchussoar
Happy New Year Owls! Tomorrow night is our Booster Club meeting beginning at 5:30 in the cafeteria. All students of parents who attend will receive a “Drop your lowest grade” ticket. We hope to see you there!
