Going to Early College School has opened up many opportunities for students and has helped me and many others develop their knowledge and skills to help get them into their dream schools.

Overall I like my school so far as they prepare us for the real world the best they can.For intance letting us take acutal college classes in campus with other students.These are the things that can help us prepare for what we might persue after high school as we have gotten a glimps.To be honest the only bad thing would properbly be the walking as we do have to go outside of our school building most of the time for our destination and its not that bad though.Its a great choice of excersie and overall very beneficial.To conclude Its amazing theres nothing bad about this school,they try their best to cover anything the students need such as textbooks etc.Highly recommend.

Early College High School provides an opportunity for me to take college courses and be challenged academically, without being held back as in a traditional classroom. There are amazing staff members who truly care about their students. I would like to see more arts related courses offered.

The school has a good concept, and if it were practiced better, going here would be a great opportunity. However, in practice it is not effective. The staff seems to prioritize high enrollement rates rather than student futures. I specifically remember a teacher telling me in freshman year that the...

I wanted my child to go to ECHS and receive a quality education and hone her skills as a growing young woman. We were told that this was one of the best schools in Delaware when we moved from New Jersey. However, what we found was a lack of care from many of the teachers, and a very disgusting excus...
