individual best for the student, we join you with highest expectations for your home school year!

ECHO is not a school nor are we accredited by any state or national educational agency.
The ECHO instructors are either a veteran home school parent, a retired/certified educator, or a

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 ECHO EXPERIENCE! 

Much joy in Christ,
