Our faculty family, our inspiration
It's no wonder that we think of the EHS faculty as our extended family. Over half of our teachers and administrators have been here for over two decades, many since the school's founding, and even the younger teachers feel the same strong sense of belonging. It all adds up to an inexorable spirit and a radiant inspiration that is showered on our student body everyday.
Head of School Paula Dashiell has been responsible for shepherding EHS through its growth from a small start-up to the 270-student, mature institution it is today. Having worked closely with Dr. Madeline Hunter at UES, she's been the guiding force in maintaining effective instruction, as well as in stressing the arts, technology, global awareness and character education.
EHS teachers have the flexibility it takes to find new ways to approach the curriculum and to adapt to new situations quickly -- valuable assets in a changing world. We support our faculty in all areas of professional development and provide a mentoring program for teachers new to Echo Horizon. All members of the EHS faculty and staff work as one for the good of our students.
