During my high school years, I was more into being by myself, but after warming up to everything, I had a lot of great teachers, coaches, and friends. I did color guard for three years, and I loved being with my team and marching together. I was also able to earn a lot of opportunities I couldn't have experienced without my business teacher. I earned many certificates and graduated with an associate's degree when I graduated high school.

I came from an all girl Catholic school to Warren Easton as a junior. Let's just say it was a big transition but it was needed. Some of the teachers are great and will go the extra mile to help you while others seem to be there for other reasons. I do like that it's a Co-Ed school. I don't like that we don't have books or lockers. The building needs a full makeover.

This school is very alum-based meaning most alums give this school 5 stars only because they had a good experience there. Education is a C as of 2022-23 school year. The building is very old. The gym is TOO SMALL and you open a door anywhere and the building just might fall on you. The students are...

Warren Easton not only develops a love of knowledge in their students, they also instill great compassion and self-worth into each student. During my years there I learned the importance of pouring into the community you live in. The life I live isn't purely mine to enjoy. Giving of my time and know...

I love Warren Easton because I graduated from Easton in 1986. The teachers and administrators prepared me for the next level of life. The school offered a rich multi-cultural foundation which I believe helped me to succeed in both my personal and professional life. I wanted my daughter to experience...
