What I like about Elton high school is that all the faculty and staff participate in the acidified that students provide. In Elton high the students and teachers always know each other and it is easy to get help or make up work for a class. In my class we have roughly about 25 students we grew up all knowing each other and we're really close. We all support the athletic teams at home or away games. We are like a big family at a school. Not very many negative things about Elton high but if there was a change that I would want is to have community involved in some activities with our school.

My time here was ok. There were some places at school that clearly need to be improved. Most of the students know each other. It makes going here both good and bad. Some are more judgemential than others which disrupts the environment of learning. Most of the attention is centered on athletics, which is growing and improving every year.

The office is pretty clear about what to do and who to see whenever something happens.
