I would love to see more student acceptance among each other. I would also love to see safer bathrooms for students of the lgbtqia+ community.

I have loved everything about East. Stepping into the building I was immediately supported and provided with many resources to prepare me for college and real life. I especially like my Medical Pathway Program. It prepared me for the health professions I want to study in college like no other. I love the diversity of my school getting to learn from all different kids view points and experiences.
