East Jessamine High School Reviews
Rating 3.54 out of 5 114 reviews
I've went to woodford basically my whole life. So 2022 was my first year ever here. The students here are what you'd expect from high school student, but the teaches here a genuine and very nice. I've met some of my favorite teachers every from this school. This schools is very big and different from my old school but its not completely a bad thing. I do like this school though, I've had a good year here!
East Jessamine has provided me with many different experiences to create lasting memories with my friends at events like football games, basketball games, volleyball games, etc. I've also been provided many opportunities that many other schools may not provide. For example, I got to take classes over the years in the Biomedical Sciences pathway which prepare me and provided me with knowledge and experience in the medical field, which is what I'd like to pursue a career in. I got the chance to take a tour of the University of Kentucky ER to see how the nurses and other hospital staff run the department and treat patients. The teachers here care so much about students and make us feel like we always have someone we can come to if needed.
I absolutely love East Jessamine High School! It is so inviting and I’ve always felt like I belong. There are so many sports and extracurricular activities that people can participate in like Student Council to Basketball, Baseball, and many more! The teachers are absolutely amazing, they are always caring on what’s going on in a students life along with teaching them the content fully. If I were to change anything it would probably be the parking! We have such good attendance that sometimes the parking can be somewhat limited!
