East Hills Middle School

This school has been amazing for my children! The administration and teachers are caring, welcoming, and supportive. Students are challenged academically and supported when they need the support. I pulled my kids from a private school so they could attend EHMS.

It is our first year here but was worried about 5th graders going to school with 8th graders. It is a non-issue. The school handles it great. 5th graders report to the cafeteria before school so they're not roaming the halls with the older students. My son is not confident socially but has not had any issues. His teacher is AMAZING!

Great school, very involved teachers, parents and students. Forward thinking learning approaches, cutting edge education,

While I agree with the other reviewer on the dismal state of school lunches, I must say that after having two children go through this school it is an excellent school. Middle school is when the kids begin to distinguish themselves if they excel in certain areas, and the school and district provide opportunities for those children. The staff is both dedicated and caring, and I have personally found teacher and administrator communications extremely easy. On the occasations when we had issues, they were addressed immediately and effectively. The counselling staff has been a great resourcs, and everyone from the office staff to the teachers are open, helpful and approachable. This school like many others is challenged with the diverse student population. I see that as a positive, because it reflects real life. My child has benefitted from having peers with learning disabilities, physical challenges, and different ethnic, social, and economic backgrounds.
