I grew up in the elizabethtown school system. I NEVER hated Etown till I reached high school. of course we all dislike school sometimes and we’d rather be hanging out with friends or whatever instead of sitting in a classroom all day, but Etown is a whole different ball game. The staff does not care about its students unless you have rich, white parents that’ll give them money for new sports things that they honestly don’t need (money could’ve gone to new textbooks for certain classes or equipment for extracurriculares that ARENT sports.) The amount of racism i've witnessed at this school is sick on top of homophobia. this school has always been for the snobby kids and their stuck up parents. like i’ve said before, you’re either rich and spoiled enough that it doesn’t matter if you live in the area, your parents will pay, or you just ended up moving into the district. i’ve been in my fair share of trouble in my lifetime but never have I ever lied about it. But when i’m standing in the hallway talking to my best friend (NEAR THE WOMENS RESTROOM) a teacher comes running out of the LIBRARY, to say she knows for a fact we said the f word. we both got Saturday school because neither of us said it but neither of us were going to admit to something we didn’t do or throw the other under the buss. this school couldn’t care less about bullying but cares soooo much when a student supposedly says a word that i’ve heard half the teachers say. I attended EIS since preschool and i’m so disappointed in the way they run the high school. bullying is the biggest issue that not only I have faced, but most people I know have faced. A girl was threatening to kick my pregnant best friend in her stomach and they did NOTHING so I took it into my own hands and approached her. they basically babysat her while she screamed and cried, talk about playing victim after pushing her in the hallways and threatening her child’s life. their thought process has to be, let’s protect the “popular” kids because their parents will give us money.

My daughter loves to go to Helmwood Heights. Principle, staff and teachers all are wonderful. If you are looking for a great elementary school, I would highly recommend HHES!

I go to this school and the teachers can be mean also a lot of the students
