Attending Ellet High School has been a good experience overall. Of course it was not perfect, but going there has taught me a handful of things and has helped me grow as a person. I feel like majority of the teachers I had cared about me and my grades and pushed me to be better. I loved getting to participate in spirit events as well as programs and club activities.

The best part was the Animal Science class with Mrs. Rose, the worst was the administration of the APS school district. I would like to see people in charge that genuinely care about the students.

The teachers are very nice and strive for students like me to succeed. The school system is good in terms of our sports teams and academics. Overall a good place to be.

Proud graduate. Proud that I made it out relatively unscathed, not proud of the school. Students who know their future involves college are eligible to take college campuses at (choose Kent, not Akron) by junior year, possibly even earlier? That aspect of Akron Public schools is valuable.

Hello, I was a former student that moved from Ellet.I would not recommend this school. I was bullied and mentally hurt.The the teachers and staff did not help me with my grades except for one teacher.Mrs.Dingman. Thank you for all that you have done for me and cared when no one else did.

I feel this way because for the past week they have been giving me expired food. I am very angry. Some of the teachers here and rude and disrespectful. This is the worst school I've ever been to.
