8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe are a military family, so we move quite a bit. This is the smoothest transition our family has had. Eastbrook is a great school with great kids attending. I do not have to worry much about them falling into the wrong crowd, because there really is'nt a "wrong crowd" to fall into at Eastbrook. Parents are always attending sporting events and going the distance to support the team as a whole, and the teachers are willing to listen and eager to solve any issue or offer their assistance to further help any student. I'm really glad the boys were able to attend EastbrookParent Review15y ago - Eastbrook North Elementary

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love the staff at ENE, Mr. McKim the principal cares about every student in the building and will work one on one with parents to help their kids succeed. My oldest has severe anxiety and ADHD and they have always been extremely supportive when she is having a hard time to school, they make sure we as parents are aware how she is doing and meet with us frequently to make sure we have the best plan in place for her to thrive at school. The staff here works together as a team to make the environment safe, nurturing, and fun for all the kids who go here.Parent Review3y ago
