Our Mission
 
To create a high tech career focus to better serve our team members’ needs for those entering directly into the workforce from high school and those planning further post-secondary options.
 
A note from our Principal
ECA students are known as team members and teachers as directors, fostering a business setting at the school. Team members have the option to be dually enrolled - simultaneously earning credit toward a high school diploma and technical college certification. They are officially enrolled as students at their home school where they can participate in extra-curricular activities and graduate with the other seniors from their school. Read more
