All transcripts must be sent to eldoradopromise@esd-15.org.
**If you have sent in your required information, but have not received the normal confirmation as in past years, please be patient. Currently, no news is good news. We are working through everyone's information and are notifying anyone with potential issues first.

EHS Social Studies Honor Society
Although EHS has several different honor society organizations, many require very high GPAs in order to be accepted, and this can exclude some excellent students. Although the eligibility requirements are lower than others, the Social Studies Honor Society is based on social studies classes, maintaining an overall 3.5 GPA, and pushes participation in social studies courses to ensure students are fully qualified for collegiate programs through the NCAA Clearinghouse by requiring the necessary fourth year of social studies classes. Advisor Wayne Garner said, “This is an honor society based on performance within social studies classes. This honor society brings recognition and notoriety to social studies and provides students with knowledge on how a degree in social studies can provide for them now and in the future.”
For more information, reach out to your social studies teacher once school begins!
