Erie Elementary Charter School (EECS) provides Chicago children with a free high-quality bilingual education that values their unique life experience, language and culture. The EECS strategy is centered on an innovative curriculum, high expectations, outstanding educators, strong governance and enriching partnerships. EECS believes that every child can, and should, graduate from college. To promote a college-going culture, EECS names every classroom after a college or university and takes students on college field trips every year, beginning in kindergarten.
