 ECC PTA
Membership Has Its Benefits…

The ECC PTA proudly offers more than 25 enrichment programs to our children every year. The variety and caliber of these programs allows our children to benefit from one of the highest ranked education systems in the nation. However, none of that would be possible without the generosity of our families. In order to maintain our current enrichment programs,  it costs approximately $125 per student. We need your help to keep our programs and our children succeeding.
