Moving up to the second floor, the primary bedroom with lake views is an oasis for relaxation and includes a marble bath and large walk-in closet. The remaining 3 bedrooms on the second floor are exceptionally large with generous closets with either an en-suite or Jack and Jill bathroom.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe've been so happy with ETHS. Coming from a small middle school we were wondering how the transition to be a big school would go. It was very smooth. The school does so many events for 8th graders to get them comfortable and is very communicative with parents. There are so many clubs and activities to choose from that all kids really have an opportunity to find a good fit. PE includes a swim unit and they get to swim in the school's very nice pool. At parent-teacher conferences I was so happy with all the staff, they've been so great.Parent Review5mo ago
