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.

The teachers barely teach and don't give you the material to succeed. The cheer coaches have been terrible and have caused a crazy amount of hurt over the past 4 years. There is no support or guidance to help prepare for college at all. The admin is very biased and are not good at solving conflict.

The best part about East River is the Teachers and the environment of the school. However, there have been some dangerous situations that have happened.

The best part about East River High is how they have a space for everyone. Every interest is discussed and no one gets left out. I used to feel like an outsider and felt like I did not belong with the other kids but I still wanted to feel included. That all changed when I started going to East River. There are so many different clubs and sports that can suit everyone which is very important to have to be a great and inclusive school. I really like that the teachers and administrators genuinely care about student's well-being and want students to succeed. They create a path best suited for us to follow to be successful in life. There is no discrimination against a student and their interests. There is always something they can do without feeling left out and that is something that I really appreciate considering countless people tend to feel alone at school. Not at East River. I genuinely enjoy coming to school every day and being taught by teachers who care and are always there.

My second was an ESE kid so the school knew me well. They were very responsive. My son got the attention h...

Very good curriculum and is a magnet school for first responders etc. While teachers are caring and compassionate and most are experienced, administration can be un-cooperative with inclusion and refuse to modify or adapt teaching styles to federal requirements or best cater for students who are vis...

Only good things are their JROTC Program, Mr. O'Such's physics class, and engineering classes.

My son just graduated from ERH this year. We never had any problems . The teachers are great help. They were there for him when he needed advice. The principal made a huge difference in school.
