Eastern Guilford High School is a bad school because I'm a sophomore and I tell them whenever there is a fight happening they ain't doing anything about it

Eastern Guilford High School is the type of school you have to attend in order to understand how everything works. It is full of school spirit when it comes to giving students the ability to participate in a wide variety of sports. The students in my opinion are very smart and educated. They are very hard-working and it is a school where everyone can be exactly themselves. They can be who they want to be and they can express that no matter what. They there is always someone for everyone. I consider the people who go to my school a community because everyone knows everyone. We know when it's time to come together and be one. The only bad thing about my school is that there are instances where there is a lot of fighting and there is a lot of skipping causing a lot of students to get in trouble. I will also say that it has been hard for me to blend in with the crowd. For me to be someone with social anxiety it can be quite challenging to " fit in".

My overall experience at eastern has been very good way better then other high schools. Staff make sure that you have resources for graduation the bad thing about the school is the environment, meaning some of the students and staff members. There multiple fights during the week and some staff and teachers have lots of favoritism. Over all the school on a educational basis is super good.

The teachers I've interacted with gave me the impression of being dedicated to their jobs. Mostly, they were flexible enough to try to work with my son who missed one or two assignments due to some computer glitches. The admin offices sometimes don't answer phones or don't call back in a timely mann...

The population here is more interesting and diverse than its location might suggest. The administration, as of the 2015-2016 school year, is incredible. Ms. Foley and her assistant principals hold the students and teachers accountable for creating an exceptional learning environment. This is a large...
