The school experience was great and everything, but if I were to say, a lot of bullying goes down and theres not much being done. It affected me as well because I have been made fun of, but in this school they give a lot of opportunities to students success and support in learning resources. The teachers are there for you when you're struggling with grades and how to keep up. The friends you make along the way is amazing, although too much drama and problems. Overall It was a changing experience.

East Side High School has been a great part of my high school journey. They have provided me with numerous opportunities and several chances to fully expand my interests and academics.

The best part is the connections that you are able to have between students and teachers. The worse part is that our cultural environment can be really toxic.
