  • The staff members are making an effort to improve the behaviors of some students who choose to be belligerent and who make our school have a negative appearance. however, they are taking it to far by making the students wear uniforms in the 2011-2012 school year, and restricting our freedom of expression through our attire. we should be allowed to wear whatever we want within reason to a PUBLIC school. changing the way we dress isn't going to change the way that we act. and the students who behave and prosper have to suffer because of it. it doesn't make much sense to anyone. i think that they should seriously reconsider because its only going to cause even more problems when the students refuse to abide by the upcoming rules. they shouldn't take the freedom of being able to dress the way we want away.

  • THIS SCHOOL ever since the new school year of "2010" is a Horrible! they think they are amazing cause we have this new school that really isn't that great, the teachers are good actually great. The principles think they are god. I LOVED EHS last year but this year its just down right disgusts me. The security also makes me laugh. This school is NOW a waste of time and I wondered why people used to drop-out of high school, NOW i know why. For the most part yeah the kids okay. Some are ignorant but for the most part they are okay.
    ITS MOSTLY STAFF.

  • staff does not want to get involved and help the school get better as a whole. they fail to see the situatution through the students eyes, for if they want change from the students they need to change for it is their footsteps that we follow.
