I liked Essex High School because may we're respectful and I made many friends throughout the years of attending here . I would like to see many things change , for examples school lunches and how teachers teach., and how the school acts as a whole.

This High School is beyond GREAT the teachers are concerned about the students learning and their grades, also when you ask for a call back youget a call back as soon as possible this is very rare at some schools. I'm very happy that my son attends ESSEX HIGH SCHOOL.
