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 didn't have many problems at school. The building itself was nice and community was alright. Teachers were good they tried to engage students constantly and always wanted what's best for them.

Last year I switched schools within the community to receive a better education and be in a safe environment although I do have to drive all the way across town, it's been worth it!

My high school experience was overall amazing. There were some challenges in classes but I met some of my best friends at East High. Being apart of things and being involved really made my experience. The one thing I could change about East High is the many kids in one hall or for example the lunch line. East High is an amazing school and I am proud to be an East High black raider.

Tons of Teenagers get disorderly conduct charges every year, this goes in their record. It's dangerous to stand up for someone as there is too much drama involved. We don't trust teachers, they don't do anything, there's fights almost every day!
