In my four years of experience, I would say overall Evans High is a good school. The music program is especially good, as the directors are gifted. I would say the worst parts are the bathrooms, as they are messy and constantly out of toilet paper, and occasionally the school lunch is nasty.

It was a good school. Offered a variety of AP classes and really did set me up well for college. The teachers were very qualified and the school made sure the students felt involved and proud of their community. It really wasn't so bad after all.
