Seniors and juniors (up to 36 students) will be traveling to UNC-Asheville and Appalachian State University on Sunday, October 13th through October 15th. We will leave at 12:30pm on Sunday and come back on Tuesday around 7:30pm. $135 per person. Priority will be given to seniors until September 5th. Money is due September 12th. Flyers are going home today with juniors. Seniors will receive flyers during their advisory classes this week.
That's right. College classes start on Monday. But, ECE has a teacher workday, so there are no high school classes, or buses to and from campus. What an odd start, in my opinion. My advice to students is if you have college class on Monday (check your schedule because many of you don't) then you need to make every effort to be there, especially if it is a developmental math (DMA) class. Have absolutely no way to get to class? Do not fret. Yes, not being there will count as a college absence, but the college is aware of the early college student's situation. Send me an email on Monday if you were unable to attend you college class, and I will contact your instructor, just to again remind them of the situation. But, remember that the absence is still counted as a college absence! One you eat your college syllabus, you can check to see that instructor's attendance policy and plan out your semester. Best of luck on Monday!!! I'll see you on Tuesday. Hooray!
ECE has purchased student planners for all 9th and 10th grade students for the 2013-2014 school year. It is mandatory that all 9th and 10th grade students utilize the student planners to organize their time and assignments. Student planners are available for purchase for any other student and/or staff member for $5. Any 9th or 10th grade student who loses their planner can purchase one for $5. Come by Mrs. Weaver’s office to purchase planners. Do you have a question that you feel only a current ECE student could best answer?
Email the student ambassadors at [email protected] Make sure you are reading your summer assignment! Contact Ms. Wiltshire if you get stuck. She is working this summer so don't hesitate to call ECE at 2524445194. Wondering why you didn't have a lot of choices in your courses for next year?
Here's why...... ECE tries to get most of your HS requirements done by the end of your junior year. You should have completed English 1, Earth Sci, World History, a math, Engineering, and some electives (college classes, NCVPS, and/or CTE). For the 10th grade year, you are more than likely taking- Honors English 2 Honors Bio Honors American History 1 and 2 Honors Math (2 or 3) that's FOUR CORE CLASSES all year! Plus, you will be writing your graduation project papers this year. INTENSE! So, more than likely, you have a seminar or just one elective (like what you didn't complete in 9th grade) Greetings!
I have met with a lot of you this summer. Hopefully, you and your parents got lots of good info during the meetings with Mr. Quinn and myself. If you missed this very important meeting, please email me to see if there are any more appointments available this summer. This summer you should be doing SOMETHING extracurricular in nature to add to your HS portfolio in CFNC.org. Yes, LOG INTO YOUR CFNC! You all have accounts. If you cant remember how to log-in, create a new account. If you know your username but not your password, email me and I can reset it for you. Again, I apologize that CCC registration did not go as smoothly as planned. All rising seniors should have made an appointment to meet with me sometime this month, specifically this last week in June. If you have not signed up, do so ASAP. There are not many spots left and the summer is going by very quickly. The meetings are all about you and your future!
