5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis was the worst school of my 3 years. I was only looking forward to graduating from this school because I couldn’t handle the trouble that lead to this drama at our school. When I met the assistant principal she was a little nice, but she started to have a pessimistic attitude towards me and the other students because she kept seeing too many cell phones, and students in the hallway without a pass, when most of them were damaged or broken. Also, some of my teachers ignored the behavior where someone was using slurs and insults to make fun of religion and culture, so I felt very uncomfortable of being in that classroom. My recommendation would be to take your child’s education at another school because this school made me very uncomfortable for the past 3 yearsOther Review4w ago - Orrington Elementary School

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 Review4mo ago - Check out schools near 2236 Orrington Ave.
