Announcements
**Important for class of 2026 seniors who are attending a two- or four-year college:
Students who have taken a UCONN Early College Experience (ECE) course at any point during high school should plan to submit their official UCONN transcript to their attending college once course grades are finalized. UCONN recommends waiting until after July 1st to request a transcript. Students will need to login into their UCONN portal to request a transcript to be sent to their college. EHS does not send UCONN transcripts. A link with instructions is included below. You may utilize the credit transfer database search link below to determine if your college will accept the transfer credit. UCONN credits are college credits you have already earned and paid for. Don't miss out on transferring those credits where you can!
Remember: you do NOT need to be attending UCONN for the credit to transfer; 85% of colleges will accept the credit.

Summer Mental Health Resources
While many students and families are excitedly planning for summer break, we know this season can also be a difficult and isolating time for some students. Please reference the attached document for mental health resources to help support students and families during the summer break.
Summer Resources for Students & Families
Summer Nutrition Resources for Families
Just as connection serves as a powerful protective factor for youth mental health, meeting children's basic needs is essential to their well-being. This summer, children can access free, nutritious meals through USDA SUN Meals at upwards of 500 locations across Connecticut. Any child aged 18 and younger can simply show up and enjoy a healthy meal at no cost to them or their household—no application, income verification, or ID required. Families can find nearby meal sites using the USDA Summer Meals Site Finder. Locations and hours may change throughout the summer, so families should check before they go. In addition, most children eligible for Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer (S-EBT) benefits will receive them automatically. Families who have not received benefits but believe they may qualify can apply. Learn more about S-EBT.
