The ECHOES program at Holmes Junior High School offers a wide variety of programs and builds many positive adult-child relationships. Many students are at risk and need positive adult role models and a safe environment after school. The ECHOES program helps make connections with the students and influences students' academic performance by offering additional support. Our Mission is to provide a positive and safe environment for the empowerment of youth, the encouragement of academic success, and the collaboration of peers, adult, and community. Our Goals are to offer activities, experiences, and relationships that promote growth in a student's developmental level, enhance academic performance, and deter harmful behaviors.
