Eastern Technical High School Reviews

Eastern Tech provided me with numerous opportunities to be involved in courses and activities that students in other schools in the county don't necessarily have access to. For example, through the allied health program I took at tech I was offered a spot in a PCT and CNA program at the community college down the street. I will now be graduating high school as a licensed Patient Care Technician and a Certified Nursing Assistant. However, Eastern Tech has a tendency to push their students was past the point of realistic achievements. The push for academics was definitely strong, and while it was helpful in preparation for college courses and such - it felt as if the staff/administration sometimes forgot that we are more than just students.

I love going here, it has been such a great experience. All my teachers have been great, I have formed relationships with them and have learned a lot. I have also met some of my best friends here. This school is a magnet, and has high academic standards. They push you but want you to succeed!
As a student at Eastern Tech High School, I enjoyed my experience there and the many aspects that make this school unique and different from other schools. I loved the diversity of the school and the different backgrounds from each student. The academic courses are very challenging, so rigorous study and preparation is required to perform well. The staff is also very helpful and generous to assist students in their subjects and other problems they may have. When it comes to sports, the school performs excellent in multiple levels, such as Boy's Varsity Soccer, in which they won state champions in 2017.
