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.

Some of the best parts from ellender was getting to make some many memories and create forever bonds. The worst parts were that we had to go through so much as a school such as the hurricane and our school being destroyed. I would like to see our school starting construction and the there will be more school spirit in the upcoming years.

I dropped out of this school because of how little they care fir the students. The teachers barely have an education and are far from professional, and when serious events happen they do not listen

Ellender is an ok school. Honestly the biggest problem is due to hurricane and the virus we have no funding at all. So there is very little to no opportunity's for the students . There's not any clubs and few sports .
