2020-2021 Fall Classes Begin

Tuesday, August 18, 2020
Knowing that in purpose and principle, E.C.H.O. stands on the Word of God, knowing that each instructor’s intent is to provide excellence in the delivery of curriculum, and knowing that each parent seeks the individual best for the student, we join you with highest expectations for your home school year!

E.C.H.O. is not a school nor are we accredited by any state or national educational agency. The E.C.H.O. instructors are either a veteran home school parent, a retired/certified educator, or a work-world professional. Each has a background in the respective coursework, a passion for the subject, and a desire to prepare students for life and LIFE.

​ Should you include ECHO as part of your family’s home school journey,  please consider your student’s ability to self govern.
If a student is unable to govern personal behavior, class participation, accountability for completed class work and good attitude,
ECHO is not the place.
 
Our emphasis for the 2020-2021 year remains ECHO SAFETY FIRST and
ECHO EXCELLENCE in all class work, in all social settings.
Welcome to the E.C.H.O. EXPERIENCE! 

Much joy in Christ,
