I had an amazing four years at East Columbus. I’ve enjoyed every class I’ve had since freshmen year! I definitely learned so much these past few years. I’ve grown into a more independent, strong, and motivated while attending this high school. What I liked most about East was my Jrotc Program, my instructors were the absolute best. They taught me how to become a better person, how to make decisions and most important how to lead. I have gone from a S-4 to the Battalion Commander of my program and I couldn’t be more proud of what they have helped me accomplish. They have lead me on the right path every step of the way never let up. They’ve encouraged me to go to college and be someone successful. I will miss East Columbus and all the amazing teachers that have taught me!
Everyone is so close and sweet, which is not how a normal high school is. East Columbus is a very underrated school and deserves a lot more love, especially the teachers. They put up with a lot and their job is so important!
I've had a great four years and ECHS and it is slowly progressing into an even better environment. I would like to see the school spirit rise dramatically!
