Activity Cards

EMThe Eckstein ASB works hard all year to fund activities to impact the entire student body. We ask that families pay the $10 ASB fee on SchoolPay to help support these endeavors. Scholarships available – email esdavenport@seattleschools.org

ASB Funds Pay for:

  • Dances
  • Spirit Weeks
  • Lunchtime Activities
  • Assembly Speakers
  • Hot Cocoa Mornings
  • Birthday Beads
  • Pep Assemblies
  • And more!

This year, 2025/26, we will require students playing a Winter or Spring sport to purchase an ASB card as ASB supports our sports programs. Students with ASB cards in the spring will get a discount on the spring Eagle Night tickets.

As an FYI, the high schools require students to pay for an ASB card in order to do sports, clubs, or any activity that runs their funds through the ASB account. Those cards run about $50 annually.

ASB Meetings

The ASB executive board meets every week during homeroom with Mr. Rothwell (the advisor) to go over plans, budgets, and prepare their work. They hold monthly classroom rep meetings to get information out to the homerooms.

ASB Elections

Elections are each spring for the new board. You can join the ASB by applying to be on the exec board, or you can run for classroom rep in your homeroom. You can work on ASB projects in the full year leadership class.

Leadership Class – Full Year

To get into the full year leadership class, you need to have taken Leadership 1, or you need to be an elected officer.

Activities that the Leadership 2 class put on:

  • Eagle Nights (dance/movie/game night)
  • Talent Show
  • March Madness basketball tournament
  • Spirit Week
  • Pep Assemblies
  • Serious assemblies
  • Fundraisers (sock drive, See’s candy sale), merchandise sales (sweats, bags, tees), lunchtime activities, and more!

Leadership Camp

In the summer, we send ASB officers and leadership students who are interested to a leadership camp put on by the Association of Secondary Principals. The camp is in August and is optional, but such a great way to learn new ideas for leadership at Eckstein!
