The district is aware of a rumor described as a Tik Tok challenge to make threats against schools across the USA. There has been nothing credible or specific related to the challenge, and there have been no threats made regarding your child’s school; however, we will continue to monitor. As always, we remain aware and vigilant with safety as our first priority. It is wise for parents to remind their children that making threats can lead to criminal prosecution and also to monitor their social media accounts.--
Scott Campbell,
Superintendent ECISD

This a developing story, and the details may change as information is confirmed and verified. In Buccaneer stadium last night, in a sub-varsity game between East Chambers and Anahuac, a student, without realizing it at the time, was injured in the leg from a .22 caliber bullet. There were no shots heard from inside or nearby the stadium. The Chambers County Sheriff’s office is investigating. If anyone heard or saw anyone shooting into the air within a mile of the stadium or has any other information related to this incident, we ask that you contact the CCSO at 409-267-2500 or the school at 409-296-6100. As a reminder, shooting a gun into the air randomly can be very dangerous to bystanders, and a stray bullet can travel over a mile in the air.
Chambers County Health Department will be at the Dome at the EC High School campus October 13th 1pm to 3pm offering the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine for students/teachers/staff/parents ages 12 and older. The link for parents to pre-register is:

*The consent for minors is included on the registration link*
Paper copies and onsite registration will be available, but you are encouraged to do pre-registration to save time!
Second doses will be scheduled at the time of vaccination, and will be given at the school (for student and teachers/staff) and at the Public Health Department for parents/adults).
Information for parents who might be concerned or have heard misinformation regarding the vaccine regarding infertility:
https://www.acog.org/clinical/clinical-guidance/practice-advisory/articles/2020/12/covid-19-vaccination-considerations-for-obstetric-gynecologic-care
“Importantly, claims linking COVID-19 vaccines to infertility are unfounded and have no scientific evidence supporting them. ACOG recommends vaccination for all eligible people who may consider future pregnancy.”
CDC information regarding vaccine recommendations for adolescents:
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/recommendations/adolescents.html
Those who are vaccinated and are exposed to a positive case do NOT have to quarantine (as long as they are not symptomatic).
Those who wear masks and are exposed to a positive case do NOT have to quarantine (in most instances).
