This School’s Reviews

4.0 Senior

3/2/2025

I believe that the students, teachers, and subjects at this school truly make it what it is. The school does not have many resources and the IB program is the main contributor to the competitive education that I was able to experience.

5.0 Junior

8/7/2024

I really enjoy attending Eastside High School, something I would like to see altered or changed is the dress code to be more lenient.

5.0 Senior

3/19/2024

my experience as an eastside student was very well. I had all good teachers throughout my 4 years. My freshman year was the hardest because it was such a big transition but I manage to still keep all A's or A's & B's all my 4 years.

These were the most horrible years of my school life. The majority (black) students seemed to rule and if you were part of the minority, you were a victim. Horrible school, horrible people, just a horrible place.

This was the worst part of my teenage years. This school actively tries to discourage learning and seems to hold in contempt the majority of its students.
