Ellis County Christian Homeschool Organization

ECCHO is a 501c3 support group for over 100 homeschooling families in and around Ellis County. We offer many activities including, but not limited to, Mom's Night Out, field trips, a theater program, culinary arts, a specialized reading help program, a high school boys baseball team, a cheer squad, archery, a golf program, senior activities, and a variety of classes and clubs. All of these activities are available to any member of ECCHO. We also offer a meal support ministry to ECCHO members in need.

We offer two different options for classes for those who want to participate--Enrichment Classes (EC) and ECCHO PREP High School Classes.

Enrichment Classes or EC (elementary/jr. high) meet bi-weekly on Fridays in Waxahachie. Enrichment Classes have a registration fee of $15 per semester, along with a small supply fee for each class, determined by the teacher. EC is a true cooperative with everyone pitching in & participating in various ways. Parents must stay on campus.

ECCHO Camp Classes (ages 5+) meet weekly on Tuesday in Midlothian at Camp Hoblizelle. Camp Classes have a monthly fee paid to The Salvation Army. Some classes carry a one time supply fee. Students may take as many or as few classes as they wish.

ECCHO PREP high school classes (age 13+) meet weekly on Fridays in Waxahachie. High school classes have a monthly participation fee and monthly class fees, determined by each teacher. There may be a one-time class supply fee at the beginning of the semester, also. Students may take as many or as few classes as they wish.
