East Jessamine High school is a place where they involve others especially when it comes to academics, sports etc.) But sometimes it's not as organized as it should be when it comes to certain things. East Jessamine High School isn't a bad place to be or learn at but there can be some improvements.

Overall i have had a great experience with my time at East Jessamine High school it is such a inviting place full of love and care for their students. You can tell the teachers put their students best interest forward. I am proud to be a Jaguar in the East High family. I'm sad to be leaving such a lovely school at the end of the school year.

East jessamine was a great place to learn. I was very active in clubs and theater. My teachers were supportive and helpful when figuring out my future. There were many opportunities to help make high school successful. The school felt safe and discipline was handled properly and quickly. Like other high schools there is always drama but I was able to have a great friend group and avoid most of that. Clubs and activities were encouraged and supported by administration. Administration was present for athletic events. The drama department went through many changes while I was there and it was difficult to keep a teacher in that department. East helped me in so many ways. I feel like I was prepared for college. I had the opportunity to take many college courses in high school and went in with almost enough credits to start as a sophomore. That was amazing to start college taking classes in my major and not having to take all core classes. I loved my time at East jessamine high school.

Teachers and Staff care about my goal to go to college ,and my opinions and feelings.Most of you people who gave east a bad rating couldn't even wright or spell a proper sentence which shows you obviously did not go to east because they teach us how to succeed and make good work habits and most impo...

This school is disorganized, doesn't follow their own policies but expects the students to; Two of my children have anxiety and the school has no respect for children with disabilities; they actually choose to make it harder for these kids; so my son, who was in advanced classes, is on home bound be...

One of my biggest problem with EJHS was that they showed nine rated R movies to my 16 yr old during the first semester. When questioned about it, the school and district offices stated they have a "Opt out" program, in which your child does NOT need a permission slip to see the movie but DOES need a...
