💚💛 Buc Coin Spotlight! 💛💚

We love celebrating students who represent East Chambers Jr. High with outstanding character!

A neighboring district recently called our campus just to brag on Damara after a recent track meet. When the meet was over, Damara asked for a trash bag so she could help pick up trash in the visitor stands before leaving. No one asked her to do it—she simply saw a need and stepped up.

Her actions made such an impression that they wanted to recognize her kindness by buying her lunch and awarding her a Buc Coin!

Damara, thank you for showing what it means to be a Buc—leading with respect, responsibility, and pride wherever you go. We are proud of you for representing ECJH so well! 👏

#BucPride #CharacterCounts #ECJH

Busy week ahead at ECJH!

Look for the Bloodmobile in the JH parking lot and save a life! 💚🩸💛

7th Grade Social Studies in action! Students dove into the Age of Reform and explored the role of the Texas Railroad Commission to understand how it shaped Texas government during the Progressive Era. With guidance from the amazing Coach Rupp, the class rotated through five interactive stations, working in groups to analyze information, answer questions, and connect how reform efforts impacted the state then—and how those decisions still influence Texas today. Great teamwork, critical thinking, and engagement from our future leaders! #ProgressiveEra #TexasHistory #7thGradeSuccess

This week at ECJH!

Our 7th graders dove into Earth science this week as they explored the movement of tectonic plates with Mrs. Parnell! Students modeled different types of plate boundaries—convergent, divergent, and transform—to see firsthand how our planet’s surface is constantly changing. The best part? They created edible models to demonstrate their learning… and then enjoyed a tasty reward for their hard work! Hands-on learning + creativity + a little science you can eat = a lesson they won’t forget! #STEMinAction #7thGradeScience #HandsOnLearning #FutureScientists
