I’m currently a senior at Eastern Wayne, and a lot has changed since I was a freshman. For starters, our school never really bounced back from the pandemic. Administration and teachers are still super messy about keeping work, assignments, and lesson plans organized for students, so it often causes confusion and conflict within classrooms. A lot of teachers have quit or retired, leaving the school to scramble for substitutes and leaving students without teachers for weeks on end. There’s a lot of inaction from the principal on serious matters, more serious than the multitude of fights that take place in a month alone. There’s hardly any structure, and I can’t learn effectively in an environment like that. Coming to this school feels like a chore, and I dread it every day I’m there. A plus to going here is that most of my friends from middle school also go here, I’ve created friendships here that I never would’ve made if I didn’t go to to Eastern Wayne. Changes need to be made.
With the staff I've had mixed experiences. My guidance counselor had definitely give me problems. From signing me up for the wrong classes to not communicating with me. I also had a similar problem with a teacher as far as a lack of communication. I also had to constantly ask about zeros for assignmentents I completed and after receiving a rude email, my grades were still not fixed. Everyone else has been kind and I am grateful to them. I would love to see an improvement in communication but that's all.
I graduated in 2016 from Eastern Wayne High school. My grandfather was an alum of the first graduating class here and my mom also graduated from EWHS. I was proud to have went to Eastern Wayne because it was known as one of the best schools in the district. But sadly, the resources for certain AP classes, or even honors weren't available but we could request to take an online class. Which not everyone knew about. So, if you ask your guidance counselor for certain opportunities and they like you, you can reach them and go farther. A lot of resources were only available to a handful of students, or if you knew how to get them yourself and advocate to get it. Overall, a very good school I excelled here, and I knew of many of my classmates who excelled here as well.
