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.

East Wilks High School has an extremely loving and caring environment, despite having less to offer academically than many other schools. I feel a sense of belonging and acceptance that caused me to not change schools for the advancement of my college baseball dreams. I am thankful to have been a part of the EWHS Cardinals Family.
