An Early College STUDENT had an idea of creating an area for students to SHARE/SWAP supplies. A TEACHER and her husband-Mr. Wallace- made it happen! Then the IDEA GREW and more teachers -Hieber, Copeland, - made this happen: TAKE A BOOK -LEAVE A BOOK. EC is making BRIGHT IDEAS happen!

In case you missed it...Mrs. Wallace and students had a " Unidos" (United) celebration in recognition of Hispanic influence in our history and how their culture has enriched our communities.
