Personally, a hard 7/10, but some friends would say 3 or 4. It’s such a big, diverse school, everyone has their own unique experience. Whether that’s good or bad, not my place to say. My experience was good, not factoring in my personal issues with mental illness. Like, I barely graduated, but the teachers cared more and were more personable than Freedom High School in Bethlehem Area. Comparing my experiences with both school districts, I enjoyed my time at Easton High School.

I went to Easton, and graduated about 8 years ago. I was in the top 5% of my class and attended all the honors/AP courses. I can say from this perspective that Easton does a satisfactory job educating gifted individuals, as I was fully prepared for college by the time I arrived. As for the other 95% of students, I can't say. I do know that an inordinate amount of students failed/dropped down grade levels during my 4 years in Easton (more than 25%). This is most likely due to Easton's inclusion of lower income areas such as South Side and Downtown. If you keep your nose clean, Easton is a great school, and will not hold students back from their college endeavors at all whatsoever. Easton also has phenomenal school spirit, and their athletic programs were a blast to be a part of.

My child's school is Easton Area High School. I'm not from thus stare so my other children went to out of state schools and did extremely well and off to college. EAHS has to be by far the worst school I have ever encountered from the lack of encouraging kids to do better, give them a sense of pride to the academics that just leaves parents baffled how kids do absolutely nothin and get by with decent grades. How is this preparing them for college!? Most gave no ambition because there is nit one teacher in gage four years that have actually cared about the students on all levels. We stayed in PA so he could have the full HS experience, we'll there was none to be had. The kids don't care, the school and teachers don't either. Now my son who thought education was an easy no effort B average student has no idea in how to grasp the concept and prepare for college because no one other than his parents pushed him to do more and learn more. Please if you want your child to have a great education which our taxes pay for ... Move! The private schools are just as bad. Don't send your kids to thus school system. Private schools just as bad.
