East Carteret High School
About Us
East Carteret High School serves seven "Down East" rural communities and the small town of Beaufort on the southern Outer Banks of coastal North Carolina
The approximately 600 students who attend ECHS come largely from families who have lived and worked in the area for several generations. Most students have very strong connections to the community and the school, with many having a parent and/or grandparent who attended ECHS.
Mission Statement
The Mission of East Carteret High School is to promote an environment that inspires all students to achieve their potential and become responsible, honorable citizens and life-long learners.
Alma Mater
The strength of a wave as it rolls to the shore
reminds us of Mariners who have gone before.
Of men and women who were strong and true.
Whose deeds and examples challenge us to
follow through.
We're Mariners, Mariners, and we'll always be
a part of East Carteret,
our strength is as the sea.
When our days grow short,
and our youth has ceased to be,
we can cling to what we've been and done
as long as there's memory.
Ballou, Ely, and Stith
