Self-Direction is the ability and learned skill to cast a vision of future goals and then take intentional steps toward who, where, and what we want to be. Instead of focusing on things to control or avoid, we emphasize our responsibility to make positive choices related to our emotions, attitudes, and actions.

• Practice goal setting and action planning
• Monitor and Adjust
• Reflect and Evaluate

"Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself."

- George Bernard Shaw

Ellison Team Tennis has made the playoffs for the first time in almost a decade!!!

This remarkable group of kids has truly gone above and beyond for the team's success. They have reached the playoffs with a skeleton crew. Achieving this milestone with such limited numbers is a testament to their dedication and resilience. A few players even stepped up to compete in varsity matches, showing incredible selflessness. Their commitment has been nothing short of inspiring!

Way to go, Ellison Tennis!

The Ellison Screaming Eagle Band competed at the US Bands Madisonville Regional Contest this past weekend, earning 1st place in Group 3 and winning the music, visual, and percussion captions. Congratulations to the band on a strong start to the contest season!

Way to go, Ellison Band!

The Eagle Battalion presented the colors proudly as they strut across the field with patriotism in their hands. Showcasing the determination and grit of the Battalion on and off the field.

The Battalion believes that "practice makes perfect" striving to be the best always.

Way to go, Eagle Battalion!

Ellison Eagle Football notched a great win over Odessa High School, defeating the Broncos with an impressive score of 69 - 28. The game was played on Saturday, September 28th, at Shotwell Stadium in Abilene, Texas.

A special thanks to our cheerleaders and parents for making the drive to support our student athletes.

Way to go, Eagle Football!

C. E. Ellison High School proudly joins the group of 38 Killeen ISD campuses that have received the purple heart designation.

The mission of Ellison High School is to launch young people into successful adult lives of learning, service, and meaningful work.

This means we are in The People Business: Common Ground, Common Commitments, Common Celebrations. Go Eagles!

Our goal is to help every student learn, grow, and discover how they can make positive contributions to their community, today and in the future, here in Killeen and around the world.

Our most important motto at EHS is: Own Your Learning!

When we use this motto, we are reminding students that their academic success belongs to them, and that they should take ownership of it. School staff and parents all care very much about students' academic success, but the key is for our students to see their academic success and achievements as their own.

This invitation to growth, maturity, and ownership of one's success is a key part of our experience here at EHS.

Own Your Learning!

If you have any questions, we are here to help. Please feel free to call our main office or email our Principal, David Dominguez.
