Overall, I have had a good experience here at East Webster High School. I loved the environment that the teachers and students built in my years. I have loved every teacher I had because it was clear that they enjoyed teaching and they allowed me to learn. The created environment was very comfortable in many ways. For the most part, the students also contributed to the environment which made for a family-like environment.

I met good people in East Webster and had an amazing time in the marching band there. When I was there we won two state championships in the 2A class. However I had a horrible experience with bullying and how the staff dealt with it. A lot of times it was really hard on me to focus on school due to the issues I was having with other students. Once reported nothing much was done about it which is really disheartening. I would love to see changes on how it's dealt with and would love it if the school was more accepting of others who don't fit the social norm.

My experience as a student at East Webster has been one of support and care. The faculty and staff always makes sure that each and every student feels accepted and welcome. They make sure to accommodate my needs and make sure I feel safe and secure in the environment I am in. As a senior who is graduating a year early, the counselor has made sure I have everything I need for my early graduation. The school takes pride in their achievements both in academics and in extracurriculars.

This school is filled with DRAMA! Students who come to this school from other places in the state say it is the most drama filled place they have ever been. The administration is immoral and unethical and caters to those who "kiss up" or who can do something to benefit them. Teachers are as "clickis...

I am a graduate of EWHS as well as a parent to an EWHS student. The academics are great. My son is far and away ahead of many of his peers from other schools. Personally, I graduated from EWHS and was able to go onto a major university and get a science degree. I saw many of my classmates do the sam...
