Ringing the bell is a powerful symbol of victory and hope—a moment when all the hardships of treatment and the pain of battling cancer culminate in triumph. It signifies more than just the end of treatment; it is a moment of celebration, resilience, and a new chapter of life. ECTC is celebrating today with our very own superhero, Dawn!
She is a reminder that while the road was long and often uncertain, strength, courage, and the unwavering hope of a better future prevailed. Every ring is a symbol of survival, not just of one person, but of the collective fight against cancer, and it serves as a beacon of hope for those who are still fighting.
We love and support you, Dawn, today and every day, and truly admire your strength and courage.

After collaborating with local and state weather experts, the Walton County School District has made the decision to close schools on both Tuesday and Wednesday, January 21 and 22 due to a Winter Storm. The closure includes students and employees as well as SPICE and extra curricular activities. Walton may begin to see precipitation to include ice on Tuesday afternoon which will make it unsafe for school buses to be on roads and bridges. Wednesday may continue to see freezing temperatures which may keep ice on the roadways. We will continue to monitor the weather, as safety is always our number one priority. At this time, we expect to be back at school on Thursday, January 23. Stay safe, and continue to stay engaged with your schools and our online platforms for more information.
Based on information from the National Weather Service and with our local weather partners, all Walton County schools will remain closed on Friday, September 27th. Tropical storm force winds and rain are anticipated from approximately 7:00 p.m. until 3:00 a.m. from Hurricane Helene. Closures are for all students, staff, and SPICE. Extracurricular decisions will be made by individual schools, including Friday football games, so please look to your schools for more information. All schools are expected to open Monday, September 30th. Stay safe, and continue to check our district and schools’ websites and social media platforms for more information.
Las escuelas estarán cerradas mañana viernes 27 de septiembre debido al huracán Helene.
