Eastern Alamance is an average high school with good teachers and poor resources. In my 4 years there the resources for students have gotten better, but still need a lot of work. The Alamance Burlington school system is not good and could benefit from a lot of changes. Eastern Alamance has great athletics and a great athletic director and they are currently working on their facilities for athletes. However, they are not working on their academic facilities or other extra curricular facilities. Currently most teachers have to share their classrooms with other teachers because if he lack of space, but the teachers seem to make it work.

Even though my high school experience at first kind of sucked, it has gotten better over the years. Me personally I did not enjoy high school until later during my sophomore year. It has gotten better due to my teachers who have really made my experience better. I would love to see however, an improvement in little things such as work load and difficulty of class. Sometimes an honors class does not feel like an honors class.
Overall it's an underfunded, gross, old school that is somewhat trapped in the past and poorly built. If it wasn't for some good teachers, it would be really awful. Half of the students are idiots, there's constant weed, vape, and dip problems. The counselors are useless. Half the hallways are outside which is awful in bad weather/temperature and NOT safe during storms.
