I have 2 kids in Eastern and I think academically overall Eastern has great programs and courses to get the kids prepared for future endeavors.
11/20/2023
My experience at eastern has been good and bad . It's a great school , the football team is just not the best but the band and the basketball teams are great . Academically I think eastern is a good school , the teachers really care about the students and the teachers are good at delivering the work to us and helping us when it's needed . I think the security guards at eastern are annoying and rude thats why I think this school is kinda bad .

The staff really make effort to make sure the childern are supported. That we keep a grade point averge to get to college. They provide after school and Saturday classes for students to make up assignments. They encourage students to get involed with sports and schools to get self esteem.

Great school in one of the more suburban-like areas of Washington, DC. The teachers are great and many live in the area. In the years ahead, this school will prove to be a powerhouse institution in DC.
