Do these ECs have much weight?

intparent, I agree, but we have no idea what type/level of schools the OP’s child is aiming for (and of course, what the student wanted as a freshman can be very different when applying as a senior.) I think it’s good for a freshman parent to see which schools want what type of info. For our instate publics, class rank is King…little else matters.

OP, if your child is aiming really high, I would encourage you to look back on threads from late March, where applicants to various schools describe their stats and scores and ECs and other pertinent info (e.g. if URM) and then say whether they were admitted, rejected or waitlisted.
