In our transition, we lost access to our old Facebook page and other social media channels. We’re trying to reclaim them, but it takes time. We’re hopeful, but it is a lengthy process. That gave us the opportunity to think about what we want from each of these social media platforms.

Educational Horizons Charter School, or EHCS, has always been the home of the Manatees, but now, we’ve got a new logo, with our favorite mascot. Should we name our manatee?

Fortify FL is a suspicious activity reporting tool that allows you to instantly relay information to appropriate law enforcement agencies and school officials.
Promoted by Florida’s Attorney General, Florida Department of Education, and Florida Department of Law Enforcement, this app was created by Florida Legislature as part of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act. The app lets students quickly submit and report safety tips and threats, share photos and videos.
Along with other schools, we are in line for some money to be used to restore gaps due to the COVID pandemic. Please follow this link to answer a brief survey pertaining to how you feel we could best use the money. The amount is not released yet.
We will collect answers until Nov. 19th. Thank you for your input.

Educational Horizons Charter School will re-open on August 24th for the 20-21 school year. With approval from the FL DOE, we will offer two options for the Fall semester with the possibility of revisiting options for the Winter semester. Both options will be on the same pace with digital and paper activities. More information will be shared as plans are developed and teaching staff returns.
OPTION #1 will be a traditional face to face learning in the school building. Certified teachers will instruct students Monday through Friday on our regular daily schedule. CDC safety precautions will be in effect. All students are expected to wear a mask when social distancing cannot be maintained.
OPTION #2 will be remote learning using technology at the student’s home learning environment. Certified teachers will instruct Monday through Friday on our regular daily schedule. Students will have online face to face opportunities and independent work time activities. Families must be very organized and have reliable technology to adhere to schedules. There will be times that families and students will need to pick up supplies and come to the campus for ongoing progress monitoring.
The Montessori method is considered all-encompassing because it is a “whole child” approach that fosters development in all areas—cognitive, emotional, social, and physical—from birth to early adulthood.
It’s based on a philosophy that nurtures the child’s natural curiosity and desire to learn, emphasizing independence, problem-solving, and a respect for self, others, and the environment within a structured, yet flexible, learning environment.
