Here, a highly granular electromagnetic calorimeter with scintillator strip readout is being developed for future linear collider experiments. A prototype of 21.5 $X_{0}$ depth and $180 \times 180 {mm}^{2}$ transverse dimensions was constructed, consisting of 2160 individually read out $10 \times 45 \times 3 {mm}^{3}$ scintillator strips. This prototype was tested using electrons of 2–32 $Ge V$ at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility in 2009. Deviations from linear energy response were less than 1.1%, and the intrinsic energy resolution was determined to be $(12.5 \pm 0.1 (stat.) \pm 0.4 (syst.)) % / \sqrt{E [Ge V]} \oplus (1.2 \pm 0.1 {(stat.)}_{- 0.7}^{+ 0.6} (syst.)) %$ , where the uncertainties correspond to statistical and systematic sources, respectively.
