Ellensburg School District Reviews

My experience here is quite positive overall, but the only thing is that there is little diversity at the school district. Many are close-minded, and backward thinking. I would love to see more progressive changes in the future.

The teachers are fun and have an interesting way of teaching. The schools have a lively atmosphere. The clubs and activities contain a lot of opportunities for students.

Ellensburg school district is an nice system in the small rural town of Ellesnburg Washington. At times the district board was frustration because they would impose new policies and standards very frequently. This made my year to year graduation plan slightly unstable.

The Ellensburg School District is always willing to help if there are any questions asked. All of the staff is very helpful and always taking time out of their day to help someone else. The staff cares about everyone and the feeling of being alone or having no friends is non-existent at Ellensburg High School. There is always someone to go to and someone will always be willing to listen.

I personally love the academic programs and involvement from the teachers especially at EHS. I did experience some racial incidents which I was not satisfied with. It could could be avoided if there was more diversity or at least programs submerging the kids into diverse culture.

It was hard for me to meet people in college. the campus and facilities were great, however the people were very closed off to welcoming new comers. it was hard to make friends and feel accepted into the fold, so to speak. The facility were amazing, some of the best people that I have ever had the opportunity to learn from. Overall I would recommend the Ellensburg school system to anyone. to sum up. people seem close minded and hard to become friends with but the teachers and facilities are top notch.

Ellensburg School District is an amazing district for such a small, farming town. I've attended ESD schools since I was 5, and I have had an excellent experience. The district tries to always cater to higher-performing students with opportunities like Challenge, Quest, and many, many honors and AP classes.
However, changes are often made without the input of the public. For example, the winter break was changed to only one week for the 2018-19 school year, without the knowledge of many students or parents before receiving the year's calendar. In addition, while our middle school Highly Capable teacher took leave, the school board decided to try and not have someone else teach the class, and leaving higher-performing students in normal level classes.
Despite this, academics are still quite good. The sports offered are pretty typical as well: wrestling, tennis, soccer, basketball, football, etc.

Very helpful and supportive for homeschool families. Kind, attentive faculty and administrative staff. Through their support, it was easy to connect to the Running Start program at Central Washington University.

I really enjoyed the sense of teamwork and community ever present in the school. There were always things going on to help the students come together and enjoy learning.

This school district has been very good. I have been in this school district for all my life. The district wants kids to feel comfortable so they are able to succeed which is important. They also care about the education because they barely have breaks which means more days to learn.

Ellensburg School District is an amazing place to educate the next generation while making sure that they have a great time doing so. Every parent who has their child enrolled in an Ellensburg school is guaranteed a successful child.

I had a great experience with the Ellensburg schools. I was able to get the resources I needed to further my education from a friendly staff. The employees were very easy to work with.

Ellensburg High School os a very accepting place of other's differences. The teachers are inspirational and provoke further thought. I'd like to see more college preperation as what is provided is not very clear. Overall, Ellensburg High School is a very good. The enviroment is great and the academics are excellent.

There are a handful of people within this school district who have enough passion to ensure the future of my generation, academically and mentally as well. Small class sizes ensure connection and understanding between students and faculty.

Ellensburg has both positives and negatives, just like everywhere else. Some teachers are great and super passionate about teaching, while others are not.

EHS is a great school for all kinds of students. The students welcome and are friendly to new coming students, we here all care about each other opinions and want the best for our voices.

Have had a great time attending here. I now call it my home school district having lived every place in this nation its nice to have friends and family in this school district.

I'm a high school freshman at Ellensburg high school in Washington. The school is mostly based on academics like other schools are. The rest of the schools traits are lacking except the sports programming. If you are a normal kid the school is fine, but to me it is below other schools iv'e been to.

Great community and small town education. Students have to advocate for themselves in order to shine.

I was a middle school volunteer wrestling coach and i liked the parent and coach involvement. And how the coach were strict with academic performance and class room behavior.
