Overall the Ellensburg High School is a wonderful school. The teachers care about their students and want them to succeed. The community is also very supportive; not just the parents, they do as much as possible to help support the students and the athletes. The administrative staff is very kind and will help when with any problems that people have run into during the school year. It is a very caring school and also a district, it is wonderful to see how much the students here are cared for and supported to achieve their goals and plans for the future. Hope they keep up the amazing work!
Ellensburg High School is amazing for such a small town. The teachers are kind and genuinely care, and are often more than willing to talk to you after class. The offering of AP, College in the High School, and Honors classes is plentiful, and helps prepare students for college or whatever they plan to do. The building is beautiful, but slightly small for the growing population. However, the grounds are beautifully maintained, and the athletics facilities are as well.
There are over 20 clubs, official and unofficial, such as Gay-Straight Alliance, FFA, FBLA, DECA, Key Club, Marine Biology Club, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Environmental Club, Orchestra, Band, Choir, and many more for students to join that participate in activities yearly.

Teachers and students are pretty nice. Counselors are almost always too busy with paperwork or other things to actually see students. If counselors could actually be able to be only counselors, that would be good!
