Evanston Township High School Reviews
Rating 4.09 out of 5 714 reviews
It's a well-rounded school, highly political, and the teachers you get highly influence the grades you will get. Although the courses are not easy, the teachers can make them significantly harder or easier and you will likely come out of it knowing the material better if you get an agreeable teacher. The school is so big you don't really have to worry about cliques or social stuff all too much, I have friends of all sorts throughout all of my classes. However, the school does falsely portray a tight nit community but this couldn't be farther from the truth. You won't meet 90% of the kids who go here and won't be able to because of how locked the classes are(you will have a couple of people in your classes consistently throughout your years, while never seeing certain others). Also, the school can be relatively dangerous, the area around it and the interior; lots of drugs, lots of aggressive kids. It can sometimes feel like a prison, sometimes feel like indoor recess.
ETHS gives a lot of opportunities to help you explore not only your intrests and passions, but also your curiosities. They offer many opportunities for AP classes as well as almost any elective you can think of from drawing , engineering, metal sculpture and so much more! There are also many opportunities to join new clubs or sports, and if you can't find a club you can make one. ETHS gives opportunities that mostly only college would.
I personally think that Evanston Township is a great school on the educational side but i don’t fee as safe as I used to my freshman year from the lock down to safety officers in the morning anyone could just walk in if they look like a student because we don’t scan in. I think that the school focuses on the negatives more than the positives by targeting colored students and making them seem like their less than because of their backgrounds. For example students are searched randomly for no reason because they were wandering the halls, there was a video going around about this of a safety at our school trying to make a student empty their bra. Our school has many problems that aren’t addressed by higher ups because students don’t feel comfortable enough to speak up because of fear of punishment.
