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.

At Ephrata high school I have had a pretty good experience. Most of the teachers care about my learning and the environment is all around safe. I know many teachers who would die for their students. The teachers are also really patient and deal with alot of high stress situations. Most of the students are pretty nice and will support you in tough times. The food is not terrible and they have a ton of activities. I'm very thankful to be a student at EHS and will miss the school when I go off to college. The worse thing I could think of is that some of the substitutes usually are not the best people and are really strict on people that are not doing anything bad.

I would like to see a change in the size of the school. The school is beginning to get smaller as the number of students increases. My only negative take from the school during my four years was as I mentioned earlier, the two years we spent online.

I like the club's, but I would love to see more opportunities for people who already know what they want to do after high school. I also would like to see the lockers have more room for students to put stuff in them.
