I will always remember east. I had really good school years. When I was there back in 2006.

If better options are possible for you to enroll your child in another school, please do so. This school does not care about their students’ academic progress or performance and instead wish to better their appearance by giving children grades that they do not earn. They do in fact tweak grades (rather minor or major) and will not hesitate to complain about the students being disrespectful to the teachers yet still do nothing about it. When a parent approached a staff administrator, the administrator will babify the parent instead of giving a correct evaluation of their child’s behavior (as more than likely it has not been documented). The support and behavioral staff is so overrun by misbehaving children because of an unclear protocol set forth by school administrators. The teachers are absolutely stressed and overworked beyond functionality, as there will be a classroom interruption from a student within the first thirty minutes of class time, thus leading to teachers not being able to get instructional material out in time (which in turn leads to students failing.) Instead of providing support for these teachers and properly dealing with misbehavior, the admin instruct teachers to ignore said behavior and to not discipline the student—no matter how distracting the student is to their peers. This school compares major student infractions—such as fighting, cursing, bullying, LEAVING CAMPUS, and/or injuring school staff—as though it’s a mosquito bite (harmless.) This is not only detrimental to the school’s staff team, but to their students as well. I predict a rising number of teachers will leave their post in the next year and will not return due to the hostile and stressful environment of this school. Also, parents, YOU will be blamed for your child’s behavior behind your back but when you come to address the situation with the school staff, they’ll act as though they’ve been blaming the child’s teacher the entire time. Please take heed and do not take this review lightly, if it’s possible to take your child to a better school and if you wish for your child to be a scholar instead of sitting in a jail cell, TAKE YOUR CHILD SOMEWHERE ELSE. This school is a one way ticket to a prison for your child.

It was a mixed bag really really many of the difficulties were with the implementation of rules that don't make sense, such as the fore mentioned hood rule and the bathroom rule.
