I have attended ELHS for the past two years, and although I have not been enrolled in other schools in the county, this school has some of the best teachers and academics in the county. I take honors and AP classes, and they always present me with the challenge I'm searching for. Be prepared to have

I agree, I am a parent of a middle schooler in this system. The tests do come on the same day with other homework. It is stressful. I am a twenty year veteran teacher with two students and I agree planning could be better for tests and homework . The insider parents helping is usually the

Eagles Landing High is very challenging academically. My son has 2 honors and 2 AP class. Although, I know he will be well prepared for college based on the demands and work load he receives, the teachers make it hard for a student to partake in any additional school activities. Some students would

Often, my son has tests scheduled for all subjects on the same day. It would be beneficial, if the teachers could work together to ensure a student isn t over loaded with all subjects. The principal is excellent with a strong push for test scores which has proven a success. School pride has resurfaced thanks to the new AD, football coach & cheerleading coach. Read less

I am a student at ELHS and I believe that it is the worst school.

I attended Eagles Landing for my freshmen and part of sophomore year. While I was there, I appreciated the education that was offered.

The teachers come to teach and help, as well the majority of the students there are there for a purpose. We for the most part have privaleges and freedom compared to those of the school I am at now.

I graduated from ELHS in 2004 and it was not the same school I came into in 2000.

I am also in the class of 2009, and my view of ELHS, is very grim. There is a large lack of involvement from the parents, there are many teachers that just don't care about how the students act in class, food is over priced, the vending machines take money, and they claim that they cannot do a thing
