Ellington High School gets you prepped for college with fantastic teachers who really care. The cafeteria food is alright, but I'd love to see more variety on the menu

During my high school career, I had the chance to join many clubs, meet new people, and learn so many new things, both academic related and other. This school has changed my view on academia, as I have been working hard in order to reach all my goals.

4.0 Senior

1/30/2024

I moved to ellington my sophomore year of high school and was welcomed with open arms. I have learned a lot of great things from the variety of classes Ellington High offers. Something I would like to see change is more effort for safety. A lot of the security at the school go towards the wrong things, and they need to focus more on our personal safety. Otherwise though the teacher's and the experience have been great, and I have had great experiences with a lot of teachers at Ellington high.

My child uses a Medicaid device, but this group had the gall to switch and use their own choice of a different device they wanted! Needless to say, we lodged complaints against them, so be prepared from Day One if you r...
