When it comes to my experience at Ellison, transfering to this school was easy and transfering my credits wasn't a problem. Each important office had big letters above the door to help guide new students around the campus. Tips from students and staff would recommend me the best food places and how to obtain free food on certain days. Although socializing is very important, everyone is always indulged in their studies and teachers do a great job of motivating their students for success!
C.E. Ellison High School was a school that I can most definitely say is memorable. After attending a high school that revolved around academics, transferring was a big breath of fresh air. It was like a fresh coat of paint was finally being poured on my canvas. If there is anything the school needs to work on, it is the quality of the academics they are handing students out. Assignments often felt as if they were infantilizing us. Another issue I believe could be worked on is presentation. The school is old, but has had renovations in the past and still looks as if though it hasn't been repainted in over a decade. In conclusion, while this school is very memorable, it needs several touch ups on academics and presentation. Diversity and programs were never really and issue, but forgettable little things were noticeably in shambles.
I'm currently a junior at C.E. Ellison High School and my experience has been wonderful! Sine my freshman year i have been surrounded by some of the best people i could've met. Most of the teachers and staff are kind and want to teach and help out. I've made great friends that i know will always be there for me. The school spirit here is like no other, the football games and spirit week are very fun! I love the environment at Ellison and wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
