Mission Statement

At the elementary level, it is critical to develop learners who explore, inquire and are able to work collaboratively to construct knowledge and develop skills. At EECS it is not enough to learn concepts from books and memorize facts. It is necessary to approach all content areas from both a foundation of discipline-specific knowledge and an inquiry-based, hands-on approach.

Parent Leadership Council


Parental involvement is essential to a child’s academic success and should be fostered from the beginning of your child's school experience.  We believe that parents’ participation, volunteerism and leadership will enhance Erie Charter's atmosphere and encourage all parents to get involved.

There are plenty of ways for parents to get involved at EECS.  Whether it is helping teachers in the classroom, sharing a particular expertise with staff, or joining the Parent Leadership Council. Your time is indispensable to your child's school.

The Parent Leadership Council meets every second Tuesday of the month. All meetings begin at 5:30pm, provide child care and dinner.

For more information on the Parent Leadership Council, please contact Cesar Salgado at csalgado@eriecharterschool.org or at (312) 432-2248.
