East High School Reviews
Rating 4.04 out of 5 634 reviews
East High is an outgoing mix of students from different backgrounds. This diversity at our school makes learning more than just about textbooks and tests. It's about understanding others who are different from us. This makes learning at East High not just educational, but engaging and fun. Our school offers many activities like drama and robotics, so everyone has something they can enjoy. We have many sports teams too, like football and cross-country. Our school schedule is great because it includes block days and different classes, which cater to people with different learning styles. We have many class options. Every student can find something they like. My high school experience at East High has been a challenging but rewarding journey. It's been like a mini-college experience that has prepared me for the next big step in my education. However, one thing I would like to see change is the school spirit at games. Increasing school spirit adds an element of fun and excitement.
Throughout my high school years at East, I experienced many challenges and cherished moments. Starting with online classes due to the pandemic, returning to the campus was a joy. East is a beautiful facility. Joining the cheer team allowed me to bond with my mom during homecoming for three unforgettable years, as she is an alumnus. However, my junior year was marred by gun violence, including the loss of a dear athlete and troubling incidents on campus. Despite these hardships, maintaining a high GPA and engaging in extracurriculars shaped my senior year positively. I want all students to get the support they need to succeed in school.
My experience at East High School has been overall very positive, especially within the East choir department. Inside of the east choir department I have found a very accepting and loving community with the students and with the teachers. I have found some amazing friends and made lasting relationships with everyone I've met.
