I honestly really liked ECHS or Early College High School. The reason for this is because I feel like it really pushes you to be better and really trains you to deal with stress and real life projects that we would have in college and in future jobs/careers. I also feel like it really is just a good environment with a lot of great opportunities. I feel like the way some things are can be fixed. Sometimes we have to keep switching to different rooms and the food is not the best. Overall, I would recommend, but ONLY if you're ready for stress.
What I liked most about Early College High School was the readiness of things. University is their biggest goal and being able to take dual credit classes was a blessing. I was able to have a form of college experience and learn how a college course compares to a high school class. I appreciate the teachers and staff of the school. Even though they are a small amount they each care about every student that comes through their door. They always see potential in everyone and strive to make everyone a better person. I made a strong relationship with a teacher that I believe will be a lifelong friend. I am able to confide in him and he is an adult that I know I can trust in case anything happens. The college readiness process is very proactive. I know without a doubt that my AVID teacher and counselor have my future in their best interest. Before senior year, I knew nothing about the college application process, however they both guided me this year and I will forever be grateful.
Early college high school gave me the opportunity to be the first in my family to attend college. The teachers here have been extremely helpful in moments where I have struggled. The AVID class here also helped me choose the career that I am interested in and led me to look for school that provided it. I joined this program because I believed that without it I would have not attended College or University. Now thanks to this school I was accepted to the University I want to go to. The AVID class has also made sure that I am aware of all the opportunities available to me due to financial struggles.
