Overall, I feel like East Peoria Community High School had a lot of opportunities if you were willing to work hard for them. They had multiple volunteering events and several clubs that helped prepare you for potential scholarship opportunities. This being said they did consistently lack student support and often had many school activities overlapping. Yes, they provided those opportunities but completely failed to make those opportunities available to lower-income students. The key club was held Tuesday mornings before school which did not allow students who could not get a ride to school to consistently attend. They always claimed those students would be able to make it but if you missed three meetings you were no longer welcome to be apart of the club. Overall, East Peoria Community High School is on the right track for providing opportunities but need to continue to make changes and support equal opportunities for lower income families.
The teachers at EPCHS are great. They really do care about your future. I liked how many upper-level and dual credit courses there were. The morale was good, and we had a lot of good curricular activities. The sports programs, however were not the best. Not only was EPCHS in a losing record for almost every sport, but the coaching ability was not typically there. Players were usually chosen based on politics rather than actual talent or abilities. Otherwise EPCHS is a great school with some great teachers and opportunities. The academics were always on or above average.
My overall experience at East Peoria High School was great as a student. The teachers, faculty, and staff have done a great job of helping students succeed through their years of high school. There is also an organization called "Moms Who Care" that helps provide essential needs for low-income students who otherwise may not have access to personal and school supplies. One thing that could be changed would be the respect towards teachers and the overall behavior and demeanor of students. I wish more of the students would be more appreciative of being able to have an education. For there are many other students who don't have the opportunity or funds to get an education. I have truly enjoyed all of the memories made at this high that will last a lifetime
