Eastside Catholic is a very welcoming school. I found the teachers very helpful, funny and kind. I understood concepts well and I enjoyed every day at school! The course selection is amazing and includes an array of subjects. I like the college readiness classes such as the UWHS classes. I found many classmates who were sweet and accepting of everyone. I liked Health class as it taught us many helpful strategies to tackle addiction, mental health, and improve overall wellbeing. I liked the fact that there were posters in the bathroom and on the walls which gave students information about mental health and how to seek help. I love school assemblies because they are filled with school spirit and fun games. I greatly appreciate the service opportunities given by Eastside Catholic because it really helps me find volunteer activities that I enjoy and love doing. I also appreciate how easy it is to talk to counselors and the staff at Student Services for whatever questions I might have.
I think EC holds a high bar for students but provides the support that students need to meet or exceed that bar. They promote self-advocacy, and students who ask questions, push themselves and take advantage of the opportunities offered do well. The atmosphere is warm, and there are lots of clubs, activities and sports that students can participate in. Parents are also welcome to contribute and be involved with the community. The faith-based mission is inclusive, and students are called to be the best version of themselves. The school has a big-school feel but offers small-school benefits (smaller class sizes, more one-on-one help, etc.).
This school is a very good college prep and meets the expectations of many. I love the various classes that are offered to all students to allow growth in the midset along with character building. Every morning during the announcements, all of us students are filled with joy and smiles to hear the energetic students and teacher over the intercom talking about the many sporting events, academic achievements of many, fun spirit days, and the many birthday shoutouts that we hear. Our campus is full of spirit that is show in our studies and all the clothing that is all around the campus. Our chants during the football games and assemblies are unmatched and will never be forgotten. With many more things that I would love to rant on about EC, there is some room for improvement. I think that while EC is working on this continuously, I think that representation in the staffing can be worked on. As a diverse student body, we should also have a diverse teacher body as well.
