I have enjoyed going to Eldorado High School. I have attended this school for all four years of my high school education. I think it is one of the best schools in the district and I believe I have received a well rounded education that the school should be proud of. The school has also given me many opportunities that have turned me into the person I am today including music and sports.

Great school with great teachers and a good community. There is always something going on whether it's a football game or a drama performance. The school spirit is great. It feels great to be an eagle.
