East Central High school has provided not only me but all their students opportunities to discover and chase their dream careers. The teachers and faculties are very helpful and understanding towards their students and ensure growth. I've made many wonderful memories and have accomplished great things with the help of my peers and teachers. What I would personally like to see change is the way the administration handles certain conflicts such as bullying, under performance in class, and disrespectful students. With these improvements, the environment can be even more welcoming for incoming students!
I love the overall atmosphere at East Central. It's such a big, open, and free campus in my opinion. It is likely you will have classes in more than just ONE building and I love the chance to walk outside and get fresh air after every class. Teachers really do care about what you are learning and are willing to break it down for you but only if you're willing to put in the effort too to see them during their hours of tutoring. I also love the spirit on campus and the advertising of all of our clubs and organizations. There's always something to do for everyone. I believe academic achievement is sometimes awarded and recognized here at EC too. An example being getting inducted into National Honor Society. They take great consideration into candidates and look at them from their Freshman year up until their Junior year. One last thing i also enjoy about my campus is the fact that our administration isn't just locked up in their offices all day. They are a part of our school and campus!
Many of the teachers are amazing! Specifically the fine arts teachers. However, the grading system is strange and can even hurt students' grades. It needs to be altered and improved because it is not widely supported, which says a lot.
