Brick Sales have begun. $100.00 for an inscribed brick that will be placed on the wall near the flagpole. There are also preliminary plans to create more spaces for bricks at the new athletic stadium. Don’t miss out on your chance to be a part of ECHS history.

Donate Your Ink Cartridges
Help the ECHS PTSA and ECHS Wishlist build up Rewards credits with Staples and Office Depot by letting us recycle your inkjet and toner cartridges for you. Used or expired cartridges can be dropped off (in a bag labeled "PTSA" please to prevent leakage) at the ECHS main office or contact Nancy Gordon (nancyp...@yahoo.com) to arrange to have them picked up. If you want to recycle up to 10 cartridges a month at these stores and donate your Recycling Rewards certificates to the PTSA or Wishlist or an ECHS teacher when you receive it, that would be great also.
