Overall my time at EMS was very enjoyable. I made some of my closest friends there and still stay in contact with them after graduating. The teachers and staff are some of the best in the area. They are very knowledgable in their fields and many come from prestigious education backgrounds. I left EMS prepared for college and the real world.

I think the extra-curricular activities are really amazing. I like how we are able to be involved in many different clubs and sports and choir at the same time.

Small school, small classes, great teachers. Very strong sense of community, everybody knows everybody's name. Lots of opportunities for community service built into the school year.

I don’t think I can explain how bad the school is, and how bad some of the teachers are here, it’s insane how much they target “different” students not to mention the students are bad influences, and mean to other students. Not a good environment. Not worth it.

Attending this school for six years (until graduation) has helped me to realize one thing: this school is NOT a true Christian school. Substance abuse issues are just as bad at EMS as they are at public schools. It is truly infuriating that the faculty push only leftist ideas upon students. Going to...
