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 enjoyed how the teachers actually cared about your grades, and always wanted you to do good. I enjoyed the small community as well. It was nice being able to know everyone in the school, and being able to put a name to their face, and not just going through the halls wondering who they were.

I liked how the teachers would help you until you understood as long as you put forth the effort. I enjoyed having smaller class sizes but I also would like to see EHS grow in size. I also wish dual-credit courses were offered.

Teachers are willing to spend extra time helping students. Athletic programs are top-notch. The music program is very good (chorus and band). Technology is readily available to students.
