GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I graduated in 1985 and I had a great education at ECHS. After high school, I moved up north and graduated from business school with a 4.0 gpa. Thanks to the fine teachers at East Carteret for pushing me to do and be my best.
