Infinity ECHS

What is an Early College High School?

Early College High Schools (ECHS) are innovative high schools that allow students least likely to attend college an opportunity to earn a high school diploma and 60 college credit hours.

Early College High Schools:
- provide dual credit courses to students at no cost
- offer rigorous instruction and accelerated courses
- provide academic and social support services to help students succeed
- increase college readiness
- reduce barriers to college access

About Infinity Early College High School

In partnership with Lone Star College - Kingwood, Infinity Early College High School is a comprehensive, non-traditional four-year public high school where TSI qualified students can earn both a high school diploma and an Associates, or up to two years of credit towards a Bachelor's degree. The school opened in the fall of 2013. Maximum enrollment is 500 students.

IECHS Vision

Provide all students with a rigorous, challenging academic environment that encourages and actively supports high school and college graduation.

IECHS Mission

We will prepare all students enrolled at Infinity Early College High School to be college-ready, independent thinkers, and resourceful citizens.

Social-Emotional Learning Commitment

At IECHS, social-emotional learning (SEL) is central to developing the whole student, so we will:

- Create a community and support network through strong relationships between parents, staff, and students;
- Empower students to take ownership of their learning and well-being;
- Foster a safe environment that promotes empathy;
- Equip all stakeholders with the appropriate strategies to manage social, emotional, and academic stressors.

Ultimately, our vision will lead students on the path to self-reflection, resilience, and growth.
