MHS students and staff dressed up in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math vocabulary words to show that they are too smart to start! Students chose a STEM word, a word that is related to or used in STEM , and then created a costume to represent that word. Students also made signs to represent and explain their vocabulary word. This activity was part of Red Ribbon Week.

Ms. Estes' art students and Mrs. Matias' Spanish class collaborated to create a beautiful ofrenda in honor of Dia De Los Muertos.  Dia De Los Muertos is observed in Mexico to celebrate the lives of ancestors who have passed.  It is a beautiful holiday full of flowers, art, food and love.  Ms. Estes' students painted plaster masks in the traditional art style, while Mrs. Matias' students developed tourist brochures.  Please enjoy our collaborative ofrenda.  Way to go students!

Superintendent Hughes had the honor of welcoming Chancellor Mack from FLDOE to Walton County and specifically to Emerald Coast Technical College.  We were able to share the valuable work our teachers, staff, and Principal Wyndy Crozier are doing to maintain our number five status for technical colleges in the state of Florida.  One would not believe the phenomenal work, education, and preparation our Nursing students are receiving at ECTC…..EPIC is No Exception to the way we do things at Our Technical College!
