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.

Very high educational with c4 that helps students get prepared for real life careers and also getting the experience to learn early whether we like or not it's a great experience and also to do that some of those classes include college credits which is the best for me since I have taken nursing and the worst would be the resource we need by helping us with our work but overall hopefully in the future there would be help with each students who actually need it to study!

CEHS is a good public school, of course, bias stems from my opinion. The classes are nice and extensive, catering to each person and their interest in the job field. The school also works well with the neighboring school Columbus North High School. The two schools have a system that works to get people to the classes they want to take, which are in line with their interests. Though I don't have enough time with clubs and activities, I have heard from friends and my personal experience that they are fun and interactive. The one thing I would change is the layout of our resource floor, which is a study hall. The plan is to make it more comfortable and accessible to reach teachers for help.

In my experience at columbus east we have had a lot of ups and downs. My favorite part has to have been my business teacher and how he is always so happy and cheerful and will help you with anything. The worst part has been my freshman year when that was the end of covid and i had to be quarantined over 6 times and had to miss a lot of events and school. I'd like to see some of the teachers leave and get some new faces in the building.

Our family has moved to a few locations in the past few years due to my work. Columbus East is one of the best schools my children have attended. They were made to feel welcome from day 1 by the Principal Mr. Newell who is amazing at remembering details of all of his students. The academics are chal...
