    • Remebering Ms. Huggins [message below from representative at Vocabulary.com]

      • I wanted to send you our Bowl Round-Up Video, where the team here included a little dedication to Sherri. As East Early College's new Account Manager, I did not have the pleasure of working with Mrs. Huggins, but her reputation is notorious here at Vocabulary.com!  

         You can see the dedication at the end of the High School Highlights video (the third video): https://www.vocabulary.com/articles/announcements/students-achieve-staggering-stats-in-season-opener/

         If you need anything or have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

         Best,

    • FACE Walkthrough Results

      • We conducted the required FACE walkthrough for your campus on 11/4/19 and were given some of the following feedback (In no particular order of importance) regarding your campus:

         The Good:

        • The communication is very good from all staff
        • The cafeteria is clean
        • Motivational signs
        • Quality staff
        • Long lunch for kids
        • Club choices

        The Bad:

        • Bathrooms had some issues with broken locks
        • Bathrooms had broken soap dispensers
        • Theft

         Needs Improvement:

        • Students would like a gym
        • Students would like better hand soap in restrooms
        • Fix or improve student ID policies
        • Fix or improve student restroom pass policy
        • Fix or replace broken cafeteria tables/chairs

         Overall, your schools feedback was  great with the only real issues being minor ones that can be rather easily addressed or fixed. The only big issue was the availability of a gym, which everyone understood why it was going to be hard to get.

        I have also attached the notes the parents wrote out in case you would like for your records.
