EHS appears nice: football field, aquatic center, & wrestling center. It’s a facade. Extravagant taxes and below average education! It’s too small to accommodate the student population, kids are bussed to other buildings for class. The lunch resembles prison food with limited choices. If your student gets D lunch there’s hardly any food left. Kids stand or eat on the floor because there’s not enough tables/seats. Bullying and fights are rampant. Kids are always smoking weed and doing drugs in the bathroom. Several teachers were lazy, rude, and constantly absent, so curriculum was self taught. This coming from an honor student. The text books are decades old and the textbook fee we pay yearly is not being used for up to date/new books. They are decades behind on technology compared to other schools. The district’s focus is on inappropriate surveys/gay/trans/gender/pronouns/sex-ed instead of quality teachers. Don’t believe the hype. Save the frustration and go to private school.
There are many things I have loved about going to school at Edwardsville High School. The staff have always been very kind towards all of their students, including me. They go out of their way to make all students of EHS feel welcome. The school also includes many clubs, some of which I have joined. The clubs, including Interact Club, have given me a love for volunteering. I have made many new friends at EHS and will always cherish all of my memories I have with them. From going to the school dances, to the football games, I always manage to have fun! Edwardsville High School has made a great impact on my life and I am excited to share my experience with other people!
Since I have just graduated in 2022, I loved my time at edwardsville high school. There were many stressful classes and parts of the year but as long as you try and ask for help you should usually get it. Majority of the staff, not just teachers, cares about their students. There are so many clubs, teams, and activities school puts together especially during homecoming and prom to get involved in and make friends. I will thoroughly miss my time at EHS surrounded by the school spirit and all people I’m around. EHS definitely has a big school environment with a lot of pride in athletics, if that’s what you’re looking for and you’re ready to make new friends you will love EHS. Also it has “tiger den” which is a cafe style concession stand during the first 3 hours that employs special need kids and funds the specked program by selling things like iced coffee and bagels in the morning.
