Our Mission

In a safe and caring environment, Early County School System will provide engaging and challenging educational opportunities to equip students for success.

The letters 'EC' are displayed in a navy blue and gold logo on a black background.

Our Vision

Everyone Committed to Student Success

A smartphone displays a 'School Safety Tip Line' message against a backdrop of a school hallway.

 

The Georgia Department of Education, in conjunction with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, operates a statewide, 24-hour, toll-free, school safety hotline. The hotline was established in 1998 and gives students, teachers, parents, and others a way to report threats and other school crimes both easily and anonymously.

Georgia's 24-hour school safety hotline number is:

1-877-SAY-STOP (1-877-729-7867).

Five children smile at the camera while working at a round table.At Early County Elementary School, we know that showing up is the first step to success. When students are present, they’re part of the learning, the growth, and the moments that shape their future. Each day at school is a new opportunity to build knowledge, strengthen skills, and connect with others. Good attendance builds strong habits, and strong habits lead to academic success. We’re committed to helping every student show up, stay on track, and shine bright, because every day matters at ECES.

Two young girls sit on the floor, one helping the other tie their shoelaces.Early County Elementary is a safe and happy place where we follow the Bobcat Way. We are respectful and responsible. We are smart and kind. We can learn and we can make a difference. Each of us is good at something and we are all important. We are the Bobcats and this is the Bobcat Way.

A group of teachers stand together in a school hallway, smiling for the camera.

We believe that when students, staff, and parents work as a team, everyone benefits. We also believe that all can achieve greatness when we stand together. Therefore, our theme for 25-26 is “The Pride of Early County” because the students who attend our school and the teachers and staff who work here are top-notch; we are the foundation upon which a great school system is built. We hope this will motivate our students, staff, and parents to strive for excellence each day.
