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.

I was a new student at East Rowan along with my brothers and I'm glad that I had a lot of fun and met some of the people I met. The school was VERY disorganized because of administration and poor communication. I'm glad that I was an early grad because if I stayed at East for another semester I would've lost it. This school would be a lot better if they had better counselors and communicated better with their teachers and students.

School is ok. Principal is very good to students. There is not a lot of communication between staff and this leads to confusion in schedule and just overall confusion.

East Rowan is a very spirited and prideful school, with supportive community in most extracurriculares- sports, clubs, concerts, etc.

I'm currently a freshman, clear favoritism. Terrible administration, writes up students for nothing. Horrible principal. Terrible curriculum, boring teaching. Haven't learned a thing in English, or World history. Seniors get away with everything, administration doesn't do anything about bullying.

I taught at this school. They try but the minority students are conditioned to be subservient to the majority. Comments have been made like token black students and racial slurs can be found written all over the school. Not an inclusive environment.
