I honestly loved going to school at Ellsworth's High School. Most teachers were great and knew all about the subject(s) they taught. Rarely any bullying and if there is any they deal with the bullying right away and sort it out.

Our school is old. We could use a new facility. Our school focuses on sports such as wrestling and football. I would like to see more focus on other extra curricular activities such as drama and forensics. I would also liked to have participated in more science related activities such as science fairs and research projects.

Only reason its a 2 star is because most of the teachers are nice and I feel pretty safe. The building is aging and quite depressing. The principal as of 2023 is a nice guy. But there is a huge vaping problem, which they aren't doing much about.
