East Chicago Urban Enterprise Academy 

As a native of East Chicago, I am honored to give back to my community by continuing to serve the students and families of ECUEA. My entire educational career as been with the Academy as a general and Special Education teacher, Math Specialist and Assistant Principal. In 2014 I was promoted to lead this wonderful school as principal and in 2023 I earned my Educational Specialist degree from Indiana State University. I have earned a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and Master's degree in Educational Leadership, both from Indiana University Northwest and consider myself a life-long learner.

With the excitement of each new school year, I hope to continue the great academic achievements and community pride that we have shared over the years. I anticipate a most successful school year as my team and I support the academic, social, and emotional growth of our students here at East Chicago Urban Enterprise Academy. Along with our staff, I will work hard to continue the legacy of success established at the Academy by continuing to build strong relationships with parents, students, staff, and community partners. I believe that communication and positive relationships are vital to the success of our school and as always, my door is open and I welcome your input. Please feel free to stop in or call to make an appointment to discuss any concerns, suggestions, or ideas to help make this the best year yet!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Veronica Eskew, EdS

Superintendent
