Most teachers are nice. Most students are nice. A lot of the students vape and other stuff in the bathrooms. Food is as good as it can be for school good. Football is a huge sport at ELCO. ELCO has a lot of iptiojs for sports, clubs, etc. Overall an average high school.
In 2009, the district superintendent at the time, let it slip that the ELCO SD was operating without a standard, aligned district wide written curriculum. The last known copy of anything resembling organized, properly, maintained curriculum “may exist on a floppy disk”. Over the years, the administration and the school board told parents curriculum issues would be addressed and a district wide curriculum was in place. Only to find out this past fall, under new administration, ELCO SD was still operating without a properly maintained, standard aligned written curriculum.
Most parents and graduates don’t care to talk about this but, over the last 5-10 years, more ELCO seniors are not prepared for college level work and find themselves spending their summers in Summer College or spending semester 1 of their freshman year in one or more remediation classes because they do poorly on class placement exams. This needs to be addressed.

ELCO is geared to the academic smart person. I felt the struggling student was somewhat pushed aside. Counselors didn’t take college goals seriously. The sport activities were a highlight.
